    exceptional breakfast
    rushed service
    cramped room

    Exceptional breakfast with local produce and variety.

    While the hosts were informative, the overall service felt rushed at times, leaving little opportunity for personal interaction. The dog-friendly policy was a plus, yet my dog struggled with the noise from nearby traffic, making it hard to relax. Lastly, I found the room's layout a bit cramped, especially with all our luggage spread out, which made it less welcoming than expected.

    locally sourced breakfast
    comfy kitchenette
    limited signage

    The breakfast was amazing, featuring locally sourced goodies 🍳. Our room was comfy with a kitchenette, making it easy to settle in. Just a little tricky finding the place due to limited signage.

    homemade breakfast
    insufficient signage

    A cozy stay in the countryside

    Waking up to the delightful aroma of a homemade breakfast set the perfect tone for our rural retreat. The hosts offered invaluable local insights that enhanced our explorations of the area's Neolithic sites.

    Minor traffic noise in the early morning was a slight disturbance, and navigating to the B&B could be tricky without sufficient signage—definitely a place to prepare for the journey ahead.

    beautifully decorated room
    thoughtful touches
    exceptional breakfast
    limited signage

    Arriving at The Old Forge felt welcoming right from the start. The room, decorated beautifully, included thoughtful touches like a small fridge—perfect for our late-night snacks. Breakfast stole the show with freshly prepared scrambled eggs and local ingredients. It truly set us up for the day ahead. Enjoyed afternoon walks nearby, with easy routes to the Avebury standing stones just a stone's throw away. Our hosts were incredibly accommodating. they arranged a cab for us when mobile reception failed. navigating to the property proved challenging due to limited signage on the roads. the shared bathroom could have been more conveniently located. Despite these minor hiccups, the charm of the place and the hospitality made our stay memorable.

    spacious double room
    exceptional breakfast
    missing signage

    Comfortable stay with delicious breakfast

    I had a lovely overnight stay in a spacious double room with thoughtful touches like a small fridge and complimentary biscuits. The breakfast was exceptional, featuring locally sourced ingredients that made each bite delightful—definitely a highlight of my stay! A bit more signage would have helped find the place easier, and the room could've been warmer, but overall, it was a memorable visit.

    welcoming atmosphere
    confusing directions

    Cozy stay with great vibes

    Had a lovely stay! The room felt like a home away from home, super cozy and clean. We loved the breakfast, tasty and made with local ingredients. Only bummer was the confusing directions to get there, took a while to find the place. Would recommend for sure!
