The toliet in the room was a super weird layout. Hard to sit on the toliet. And the shower stall is very very small. Food was excellent. Service was great. Was a very annoying loud drunk table while we were having dinner. Took the staff a while to address it. Super cute inn, but because of the toliet, would not recommend for overnight.

A story book stay!

This was a charming pub and inn. The rooms are small but cozy, very clean, and very comfortable. It felt like staying in a story book English inn and we loved it! We stayed there to tour Highclere Castle and the Bombay Sapphire distillery, and it was well-located for both. There is good, free parking and a nice breakfast.
