Brilliant.
Pros:

The hotel was unexpectedly fabulous, made so by not only the beauty of the place but also by the friendly and extremely capable staff, in particular Elaine at front desk.

Pros:

There was no offer of porter services to and from our room. We had to haul our luggage up 3 flights of steps. The room was smaller than expected. The dining staff were friendly.
I was rather surprised at the price of 2 poach eggs, sausage and a small croissant at 19 pounds or $25.00 dollars. Each morning. If i had been given a an opportunity to know prior i wouldn't have ordered it. Maybe because i took the small croissant and butter off the breakfast buffet i was also charged for that also. It was disappointing.

Excellent experience
Pros:

This was our second visit in two weeks. We were initially attracted to it because of the outdoor heated pool which did not dissapoint. The staff were helpful, courteous, polite, professional. The rooms immaculate - very relaxing. We had food on the second visit - dinner was perfect, breakfast, likewise. They seem to get everything right here. We look forward to visiting again - very, very soon.

Lovely grounds
Pros:

Our third visit here. We love the grounds and location close to Lacock. Breakfast was a little slimmed down this year and we were informed a latte cost an extra £5. I think there needed to be a drinks menu at breakfast informing if drink options and surcharges. More local produce would have been nice.
There were unfortunately some works outside our room which meant our room had a pungent drain smell. We did report to staff but they bought really offer any contingencies. Overall a lovely stay but a few slightly underwhelming features this time that made it hard to justify the price point

Pros:

What a pity, as this hotel has so much potential.
the room was not ready until after 6, the cleaning had been abandend half way through.There was no apology Although the room was advertised as cosy. it was more than big enough the problem was with the cleanliness.There was a weird smell which we didn't get to the bottom of, the head board had a thick layer of dust and behind the bed was disgusting. The night staff assured us that it would be cleaned for the next night. It wasn't. well I had already had one disturbed night sneezing, I didn't want a second so asked if they could clean it before i went to bed, which they did. With a bit of attention to detail,this hotel could live up to it's 4 star rating which at the moment it sadly doesn't.

Faded grandeur
Pros:

We booked for 3 nights for a convalescence break. The first room we were in had a huge hole in one side of the bed as the mattress was clearly very old. The staff were excellent and moved us to another room the following day which was much more comfortable. We were on the shady side of the hotel with some road noise when windows were open but the room wasn’t too hot despite the weather. There is no double glazing in the hotel which needs updating. Grounds and pool are good. Staff were all very nice

Pros:

The grounds of the house is beautiful. We wondered around and even walked through the cornfield. The staff was Excellent and went out of their way for anything we needed. My college student son even took his final online exam in the Library which is over 200 years old and the staff gave him a pitcher of water, cookies and a Good Luck note. Best kept secret in the areas.

Pros:

Room was stunning, clean and beautiful, overlooking the grounds. Most of the food was good but the haddock was overcooked and dry. Hotel had many issues due to staffing, arrived at 3 but room wasn’t ready until 4.30, one complimentary drink offered as compensation. On check out our bill included drinks and meals that we hadn’t had so that also had to be rectified. While waiting to check in and out people before us were also having issues around payments, including being told they had booked direct and not paid even though they had their confirmation through a third party site.

A Perfect Stay at a Hidden Gem - 5 Stars
Pros:

We stayed at Beechfield House Hotel from 21st May to 24th May 2025 and had a wonderful relaxing break.
Our room was beautiful, featuring French doors and a balcony with stunning views over the pool and gardens - the perfect spot to unwind.

From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome and well cared for. A special mention goes to Elaine, whose warmth and friendliness made us feel more like old friends than guests.

We were lucky with the weather and took full advantage of the hotel's heated outdoor pool, spending hours swimming and lounging in the sun. It was exactly the escape we needed.

Breakfast each morning was a highlight - freshly cooked to order with locally sourced ingredients wherever possible. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented.

If we hadn't already booked our next hotel, we would have happily extended our stay. Beechfield House is a true hidden gem, and we're already looking forward to booking our next stay. A well-deserved 5-star review!

Great visit.
Pros:

Great location. Excellent customer service. Lovely English breakfast. Top quality bed linen and towels. A little updating in the bathroom required. Such great potential, garden around the lovely pool is in need of attention as looking tired. WiFi not great. Will be staying again.

Pros:

The piped ‘music’ was unnecessary and spoilt the peace and quiet of the hotel and the swimming pool.
Dining chairs were very shabby
