amazing stay at a lovely pub with stylish rooms, delicious food, and friendly staff. Exceeded expectations for our honeymoon trip. Helen Browning'S Royal Oak was perfect in every way.

We absolutely loved our stay at this hotel! The location was perfect, situated in the heart of a charming village and right opposite a beautiful pond. It was so convenient, just a short walk from the train station and close to all the shops and services we needed. The warm welcome drink upon arrival set the tone for the exceptional service we received throughout our stay. The room was well-appointed and had all the amenities we could ask for, including a cozy sitting area and free Wi-Fi. We also enjoyed the delicious food in the restaurant and the cozy bar/lounge area. The staff were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable experience. The leisure garden area was a delightful bonus, perfect for unwinding and enjoying the lovely surroundings.

We wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to everyone!

As a light sleeper, I appreciated the individually decorated rooms and quality beds, ensuring a comfortable night's sleep.

Felt well looked after, no complaints.

The hotel is conveniently located near the train station, making it easy to travel to and from. The surrounding area offers beautiful walking paths that lead back to the property, allowing guests to enjoy the picturesque scenery. The hotel's restaurant and store provide a cozy local atmosphere while still maintaining a chic eatery feel. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, with a modern yet rustic design that complements the farm surroundings. The staff are welcoming and friendly, adding to the relaxed atmosphere. Guests can enjoy a delicious breakfast with high-quality produce, including delicious mushrooms.

One small downside is the size of the shower cubicles, which may feel a bit cramped for some guests.

We had a wonderful stay at this gem of a place in a lovely rural location. the unique decor, reflecting the organic farm, gave it a welcoming appearance. the staff were warm, friendly, and helpful, making us feel right at home. Our room was cosy and slightly quirky, with a delightful cow wallpaper and farm animal prints on the wall. We loved the communal room with games, books, and a kitchen area. the food at the pub was delicious, both for dinner and breakfast. it was a great night away and we can't wait to return in May. Excellent value for money and a truly relaxing weekend stay.

Nothing at all. 🌟

The value for money at this cozy hotel was exceptional, with comfortable rooms and thoughtful touches. The location was perfect for scenic walks and the staff were friendly and treated us like family.

The breakfast option could be improved with fresher pastries and toast that's not burnt.

We stayed at this charming pub in the Swindon area, near the Eastbrook organic farm. The room was comfortable and spotless, with a lovely bathroom and air conditioning. The staff were friendly and professional, and the breakfast was delicious. The pub itself was quirky and full of character, with plenty of outdoor seating. We also enjoyed the walking opportunities nearby and got to see the piglets on the farm.

That the rooms didn't have a view, overlooking just a courtyard.

Friendly staff, cozy room with quirky decor, warm and controllable temperature, delicious food at pub and breakfast, great communal area with games and kitchen.

Luxurious room, wonderful location. Friendly staff, delicious meals. Fun bar, comfortable beds.

Nothing at all.

Had a lovely weekend escape in a quiet village with beautiful views. the staff were friendly and accommodating, the breakfast had a great selection, and the room was tastefully decorated with a cozy bed and a powerful shower. the communal room was a nice touch with a football table and hot drink facilities. Perfect for a romantic escape or a relaxing break.

The cleaning could have been better with some dusty areas, and the heating/air conditioning unit was loud and disrupted our sleep. the location was great for walking, but there was a high-speed cycle race that disrupted the peace.

The hotel's unique decor reflecting its organic farm setting, spacious and comfortable rooms, welcoming and friendly staff, great food and lovely atmosphere, fascinating history of the farm and its animals.

Hard to think of anything.

I had an absolutely delightful stay at a charming farm shop/hotel in the countryside. The warm welcome from the staff made me feel right at home. The communal kitchen and relaxation area were a real treat, adding a special touch to my stay. The love and passion of the staff for their job were evident in their friendly and helpful demeanor. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Exploring the beautiful farm and going on walks was a highlight, and the delicious food in the restaurant exceeded my expectations. I will definitely be returning to this exceptional place.
