We chose this property based on its proximity to Highclere Castle. We knew we would have some difficulty on the stairs to our room with our luggage. We suspected we weren't going to get washcloths with our linens. All of these things are expected challenges with traveling. My washcloth disappeared with our towels, a very understandable occurrence since it was white terrycloth, like the towels and probably picked up with the towels for laundering. Still, I wish I had not lost it. We use washcloths in the US. We enjoyed our dinner.

We went to Europe for 4 weeks and stayed at at least 8 places, this was the best room we had the entire time. So much space, you felt like you were in someone’s guest room it was so cozy and had a beautiful bathtub and shower. The grounds were lovely and so was the food. I’d go back just to stay here for a beautiful weekend. Highly recommend.

Had a lovely stay the staff are so nice and helpful. Beds are very comfortable and the food is great. Was so nice being somewhere that caters for gluten free with no problems. This is our second stay here and we will definitely be back.

Great staff and lovely evening meal along with breakfast the next day. Air conditioned room which was much appreciated with the heatwave. Ample parking and good choice of beers at the bar to watch the world cup game.

Our stay was amazing, friendly staff excellent too (with air conditioning) great pub nice areas front and back inside and out and food was great.

A warm welcome and friendly staff

Very friendly and helpful staff. Great value stay.

A quiet and comfortable pub/hotel in a rural setting. well located for Newbury and main routes. Staying during the recent heatwave, the excellent air con in the bedrooms was wonderful. My room was comfortable and everything worked fine. Meals are served in the dining room and on a shady patio - decent pub fare at fair prices, the salads were particularly good with ample portions. Breakfast (£9 if you prebook) has a limited range of starters but a very good freshly cooked full English and decent coffee. All staff were friendly and welcoming.

The room was very clean and the staff was lovely

Great Value, friendly staff and lovely food. I'll be back.

We stayed here whilst competing in a qualifier at Donnington golf course, great location. Lovely comfortable room, powerful shower in bathroom. Nice to have the tea/coffee making facility in the room. Food at breakfast and in the restaurant was fabulous!

Rural location, if you need anything it will be a drive.

Beautiful old coach house, really nicely modernised. Great place to stay and thoroughly recommended

This is a charming, family-run inn near Highclere Castle (Downton Abbey). The accommodations were comfortable although simple, and the pub is fantastic, with really excellent food. The service by the family that owns th Inn and their employees is very good. The prices are reasonable, and the locals are friendly. The garden is very pretty also. No complaints, would stay again. The tomato soup and goat cheese salad were standouts.

Gave us what it said on the box. Room a little small but fine for our one night stay. King rather than double bed would have been better.

Great food
