Fabulous beef and horseradish and bacon and Brie sandwiches on soft grain brown bread for lunch - including hand cut chips and a mug of soup of the day - for less than £10 each. Seriously well worth the stop-over. Pretty pub, kind staff and clean lavatories

Truly outstanding

Reviewed By SimRob69

We stayed here as a party of five for two nights for a nearby family wedding. Sarah, the owner, could genuinely not have been helpful and accommodating throughout our stay. The accommodation is a really wonderful manor farm house with modern conveniences and spotlessly clean throughout, and Sarah's breakfasts were amazing. How she managed to cope with the variety of requests was incredible to say the very least. This really is an exceptional authentic bed and breakfast, and I have no hesitation in highly recommending it.

Lunchtime specials and vegan options

Reviewed By GarysTribe

We visited the pub side of the hotel and had lunch. Lunch was presented with 2 different menus, 2 mains for 20 or another offering 2 or 3 course for 10 or 12 quid. Great bargain for the menu. We had boquorones (whitebait), fish and chips and a no bull burger. All for 20 quid. Of course the portion sizes were smaller except for the vegan chocolate cake but what do you expect for the price. On the good side the chef and server know good food and it was good hence a 4*. Fully recommended for a quick lunch. #garysyribe #localguides #foodblogger #travelblogger #letsguide #vegan #marlborough

Enjoyable stay

We enjoyed a very comfortable stay here. The room itself is very stylish and extravagant. The room had everything you could possibly need, including very nice toiletries and generous selection of teas and coffee including an nespresso machine. The continental breakfast was also very good.

The Marlborough

The Marlborough will quickly become Marlborough’s premier dining and drinking establishment.Taking residence in one of Marlborough’s oldest buildings we intend to restore this grade II listed building it to its full former glory.

Really enjoyable!

Reviewed By JuliaQ123

We stayed in The Library Suite…..not a suite, but there was a seating area just outside our room! Room is at the front of the establishment but not too noisy to sleep. Large, comfy bed. Good coffee machine, beverages and snacks. A good bathroom with an excellent, power shower. Old building, so wobbly floors add to the ambiance. We had an excellent evening meal…..man went for fillet steak that was superb. We ate outside, great atmosphere and service. Breakfast is served over a good amount of time and again was excellent…..Would return and recommend!

The Merlin

The Merlin is situated in the middle of Marlborough's famous High Street, reputed to be the widest in England, in one of the most attractive and historic buildings in Marlborough. With ten stylish rooms, all at reasonable rates, the Merlin is the ideal place to stay to savour the atmosphere of the bustling market town of Marlborough and its renowned shops and restaurants. Everywhere in Marlborough can be accessed on foot from the Merlin and many world-famous heritage sites such as Avebury and Silbury Hill are just a short drive away. The Merlin has been a family-run establishment for over 30 years and is not only highly convenient for touring all the local sites in and around Marlborough or just enjoying the cosmopolitan atmosphere of Marlborough, but the Merlin is also steeped in history itself. The historic Georgian building boasts a listed 17th Century staircase which is believed to be the oldest in Marlborough. And the Merlin appropriately takes its name from a local legend - the belief that the sorcerer Merlin, adviser to King Arthur, is buried at a site known as Merlin's Mound in Marlborough. The Merlin was recently awarded an impressive Four Star rating by Visit Britain, formerly the English Tourist Board.

Perfect...

Stayed at the Merlin a couple of times now and really pleased with it. Bang in the middle of town on the main high street so all the shops and pubs etc are minutes away. Will definitely use the Merlin again whenever I need to stop over in the area with work. Thanks Nick ?

The Lamb Inn

Very Enjoyable!

Reviewed By J4cq1

Very old, quaint coaching inn. Does what it says on the tin! Pleasant, clean accommodation (we stayed in main building). Beds suuuuper comfy & rooms snug & warm. Beds made every day & tea & coffee etc replenished. Landlord & landlady & staff very friendly. Lovely full English Breakfast + toast & marmalade, orange juice & tea/coffee was great. Pub incredibly busy & can be bit noisy at night, but hey..people enjoying themselves! Parking a bit random on street where you can fit in. Didn’t eat evening/lunch here, so can’t comment. Lots of nearby local eateries (everywhere really busy, so you did need to book). Avebury nearby is awesome. Well worth seeing.

Crown and Anchor

Set at the foot of the North Wessex Downs, an area of outstanding natural beauty, in the picturesque village of Ham, Wiltshire, we serve locally sourced, seasonal food in a relaxed and welcoming setting. You will feel at home in the Crown & Anchor’s homely and stylish surroundings, with its beautiful oak panelling and flagstone flooring. Dating back to 1840, the inn has been meticulously decorated with every corner holding hand-picked antiques, artwork and local memorabilia. Whilst the restaurant seats 50, a private dining area has been designed to cater for more intimate gatherings with family, friends and colleagues. A garden terrace has been added to provide plenty of space to while away those long sunny summer afternoons. Situated midway between Newbury and Marlborough, just one and a half hours from London, the Crown & Anchor is the ideal place to put your feet up and enjoy the quiet of local village life. The village of Ham is ideal for exploring the local area, visiting Pewsey Vale, Avebury, Stonehenge, nearby Salisbury or Highclere Castle, or having a flutter at Newbury Races. With country walks right from the door, a cycle route running past and three long distance walking routes nearby, the Crown & Anchor Inn is the perfect stop for dog walkers, cyclists, ramblers or those just seeking an idyllic setting in which to enjoy a drink, a meal or a night. The team at Crown & Anchor at Ham look forward to welcoming you — and your dog!

Wonderful food, service and amazing room!!

Reviewed By rak5a

We came to the area to visit family and booked in for one night, expecting only a place to sleep. We were totally wowed with the room - every single aspect of the design was so beautiful and so many special unique details. The quality of everything is exceptional. The room was spotless, the bathroom huge and the shower had incredible pressure. The bed and pillows were super comfortable and the linens were lovely. In the morning we had the breakfast which was included which was totally delicious. We also had a 3 course lunch with our family the day before and the food was really top notch. The service was fantastic. We had very friendly young waitstaff who were attentive and helpful. Overall a fab experience and we look forward to our next visit!
