Lovely Stay

This is a lovely old pub. Our room was nice. The staff and landlord were very friendly and the food was great. The rooms are up some steep stairs, which if you have limited mobility may be difficult. Our room was rather noisy whilst the pub is open and a staircase to the upper floor has people thumping up it until past midnight, which woke us in spite of the thoughtfully supplied earplugs. Having said that, we enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

Great customer care, as always. And an ever changing selection of real ales which are always in excellent condition, unlike some pubs who do not respect this live product. Food excellent too.

Pleasant stay at the Crown.

The Crown is situated in a pretty little village and is pretty much the centre of entertainment for that village. The pub itself is cosy, with beamed ceilings and is well stocked with ales and spirits to suit every taste. The staff are friendly and welcoming as are the locals. We had a twin bed room at the rear of the pub, which was comfortable enough. We were unable to book our usual double bed so sleeping on a smaller bed did not help. The room itself was clean and basic, with a good shower and bathroom. We had a dog with us so we were grateful to stay in a place that accepted dogs without any fuss. We had two evening meals and two breakfasts at the Crown. Breakfast was included and was very tasty. The meals served in the evening were really good, with a good variety of choice and reasonable prices. We ate in the bar, which had a great atmosphere. We would stay again, but would probably visit in the summer, which would allow for more sightseeing as Aldbourne is quite remote and apart from the Crown there is little to do, The countryside around Aldbourne is beautiful and within easy driving distance of Savernake Forest, Marlborough and Swindon. Great walks and views on the nearby Ridgeway.
