"Beautiful dinner. Delicious food, brilliant staff. For me the little touches such as a linen napkin, the cutlery actually laid rather than rolled in..."

"This is a lovely venue in the beautiful countryside of Wiltshire. We were warmly greeted by the staff, as we came in, and the great service carried on throughout the evening. We were seated at a slightly odd table in a corner, perfectly adequate, I just felt a bit in the way. Menus were handed out, although I'd looked online and set my heart on delights already, and we had a couple of drinks to get started. We went for a sharing arrangement for our starters and had the crispy pickled root veg, the bread and pistachio butter alongside the trout rillettes. The bread and butter were lovely, different combination that worked well. The pickled veg were nice, but some you needed your good teeth for whilst others were very soft. I'm told, as I'm not a fishy person, that the trout rillette was divine. Main course arrived and as usual I went for haddock and chips. I know this contradicts my previous paragraph but everything is better deep fried in batter! The Mr went for the spicy bean burger, which looked fabulous. A couple of niggles would be that the burger was very squishy for a bean burger, it kept trying to escape from the bun. I usually order fish and chips as it's a great way to compare how different chefs manage with batter. The chips were thick, chunky and crispy as anything. The tartare sauce was really good, as were the crushed peas sounds daft but they tasted of peas, not making them like other places where they add god knows what to them! My niggle was that halfway through the fish which was beautifully cooked and moist the batter went a bit stodgy and lost its crispiness. It's a small thing, not really worth mentioning on the night as everything else was top notch. Dessert arrived, as it always seems too... I had the pumpkin spiced set custard which was a delight to look at, as well as eat. The custard was smooth and not over spiced, and it came with filo shards and the lightest meringue I've ever eaten. The Mr had the cheescake which was a concoction of blond chocolate and mascarpone. It also comes with Horlicks ice cream which I tried and can safely say it was yummy. It wasn't a cheap night out, but overall it was worth the money. Next time I'd like to sit by the fire in the little dining room, not in a hallway. Please take yourself there and enjoy."

"This charming old-fashioned pub hotel is a must-visit for fans of traditional accommodations. I have had the pleasure of staying at this hotel twice and would have returned more often if I could only get a reservation. The rooms are varied, but I can only speak to the two styles I have experienced. The gatehouse rooms, located separate from the main building by an archway leading to the car park, were lovely and beautifully furnished. My second stay was in a comfortable room on the first floor of the main building. A colleague stayed in a room on the floor above, which could be described as a loft. I always test a hotel's quality with fish and chips from the restaurant, and they did not disappoint here. My photos will give you a sense of the experience, so I'll let them speak for themselves."

"Went on a Sunday lunchtime and we were the only diners. Service friendly and food good, but general approach very sloppy. There were no tandoori dishes available because the tandoori oven had not been heated up for an expected quiet service time which is ironic, given the restaurant 's name! So no tandoori/ tikka dishes, no naan bread. I was promised some nice bread instead, but was served up with a paratha, which, although very tasty, is a fried item, rather than a baked item. None of the staff were wearing any kind of uniform all in t shirts, jog bottoms trainers. There was a Henry hoover in the middle of the floor when we arrrived, and was still there when we left. At the end of the meal, it transpired that the card machine was not working (and hadn 't been for some time). We were invited to walk to the nearest ATM instead. One guy was walking up and down the restaurant, talking loudly to someone on his phone in between serving us. Overall an impression of not really bothered to see us. Not impressed, which is a shame as the food was generally quite good."

"Located on the A350, this pub boasts a great location with a spacious car park and ample seating inside. The staff are friendly and attentive. However, we were disappointed with the food we ordered. My wife's mac n cheese was small, cold, and lacking in flavor. My club sandwich was served cold, with barely cooked bacon. Overall, we were unsatisfied with our experience and will not be returning."
