Lovely small comfortable hotel

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Highworth Hotel, and I must say it was a delightful experience. We stayed in Room 4, which was exceptional. The bedding was incredibly comfortable, and the room was spotless, providing a perfect retreat I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a cozy and welcoming place to stay. Just a quick note for future guests: if you’re driving a larger vehicle, be cautious as the alley leading to the car park is quite narrow. A smaller car would be more manageable. Overall, we had a brilliant time at the Highworth Hotel and look forward to returning in the future!

Great welcome and service. Nice hotel.

We booked this last minute as a dog friendly hotel to meet friends. We were given a very warm welcome and staff were very hospitable and helpful throughout our visit. We stayed in Highgrove room which was a very good size and very clean. It was genuinely clean rather than chemically clean which you often find in dog friendly rooms. The food was very nice but the choice was restricted compared to the online menu.

All the staff were lovely. Friendly and helpful, nothing appeared to be too much trouble. The room itself was pleasant but far too hot and the fan was not adequate.
