We would definitely recommend this hotel and we will be staying here again.
Pros:

Its location for our visit to Stonehenge was perfect and the off-road parking was essential. As we walk in we were very impressed by the spacious bar/dining area. We enjoyed the comfortable chairs at the bar where we were able to play cards in the evening.
The staff were very friendly/welcoming and helpful about local amenities within very close proximity.
Our room had a huge, comfortable bed with all the tea/coffee/Nespresso equipment we could wish for.

Cons:

Nothing, it was perfect.

A comfortbale overnight stay in a characterful hotel.
Pros:

I took a single room which was more than adequate for my needs as a lone traveller. I really liked the little touches, styling and original decoration of the room, infact the whole hotel has character and is beautiful inside with lovely areas to sit. The dining room space is also bright and lovely, but what made it really pleasant was that the dining room staff were attentive, warm and welcoming. I really enjoyed my evening meal and breakfast was great.

Cons:

The carpark was very full when I arrived early evening.
There was a Roberts radio in my room, but Im not sure it was working and there were no instructions on how to use it which is a pity.
