“18th-century village pub converted into delightful modern British restaurant & rooms. Oak panelling, exposed beams, flagstone flooring & roaring fires create a homely & laidback feel across beautiful spaces. Cosy-chic individually-styled rooms & self-catered cottages come with local art & antiques.”

The Crown & Anchor
This tastefully decorated, eight-bedroom inn is nearly 200 years old and offers a tranquil bolthole among the chalk hills of Wiltshire. The Crown and Anchor is still the heart of its community and is owned by two villagers, one of whom has compiled a book of local walks.
