    Lovely people, lovely place, building. We enjoyed the food, the atmosphere off the building.

    The bed was old and creaked

    A warm welcome from our helpful host, and a delicious dinner. We came for a family party in a nearby venue, so the Old School House was very convenient for us, as well as being a charming place to stay and a good base for visiting other attractions.

    It's quite clear from the hotel information that there is no bar or lounge (though drinks etc are available) which was fine for us, but maybe not for all. The coffee was ok, but not really to my taste, but then people are very particular about coffee, so it's hard to please everyone!

    10TobiasPosted on: 12-24-2025

    The wonderful and personalised service, homely rooms. We enjoyed our stay there very much. We’ve been back twice so far, and plan to stay there again, whenever we are in the area, and assuming they have availability. Can’t thank Karen enough for her hospitality and kind thoughtfulness.

    We like everything about the property because it suits our needs and wants. Some people may find it a bit off the beaten track.

    Very good breakfast friendly staff

    Breakfast was either served in room or a few tables in a very small foyer. No bar although staff said they could serve us drinks in the foyer. Room very dated and basic. Bed was very hard and uncomfortable.

    8Peter_walesPosted on: 12-15-2025

    I've stayed here before and I'll hopefully stay here again. A warm welcome. A warm and comfy room on a very cold night. Very tasty breakfast using quality produce.

    8AlanPosted on: 12-8-2025

    Location it was quiet and peaceful

    No fridge or a teaspoon in the room would be nice if there was a fridge to put your milk in and a teaspoon for your coffee instead of a stirring stick

    Lovely old building serving very good food and exceptionally clean

    It was a bit rough around the edges and the bedroom was cold

    10SusanPosted on: 11-24-2025

    10RotjanaPosted on: 11-10-2025

    An outstanding place to stay, only 5 minutes to Royal Wootton Bassett where I have family. Welcome was genuine and friendly, room was clean and warm, we had a bath and shower en suite which was clean and plenty big enough. Breakfast - my favours the continental- wife had the veggie full English absolutely excellent…. And good choice.All in all a 10 out of 10. Service and atmosphere made the stay memorable so will use this hotel on all our visits… Thanks

    Friendly greeting, stylish building. Freshly cooked food.

    Dated facilities. Tired decor and linen.

    Friendly reception staff

    There had clearly been a large water leak in the past and the room had a stink of damp about it. It was also freezing cold. Water streaks on every wall has just been painted over with gloss paint but still evident.

    This hotel is in a lovely quiet location. Karen and Tonny are the perfect hosts, offering an excellent breakfast and superb evening meal from their a la carte menu.

    Everything was perfect.

    Very comfortable bed, friendly staff, good breakfast, location

    In places, decor a little tired but it was excellent value for money.

    4Jo-annePosted on: 9-22-2025

    The building is an old schoolhouse and very attractive from the outside.

    The room smelt damp. There was flaking paint from damp on the wall. Cobweb n the ceiling. The sheets felt damp. There was no cold water in the morning.
