We loved the feel of the property it was welcoming and warm. The room was clean and comfortable. We throughly enjoyed our overnight stay.

We had stayed before as have friends, tucked away down a quaint lane in a historic central part of Winchester. Quiet and with a lovely beer garden & with a thoughtful & beautifully decorated interior housing dozens of interesting photos of the past. We love this pub with it's superb rooms, so unique & superior but also far more economically priced than the more obviously situated pubs & hotels. Only a short walk down from the railway station. A hidden gem which we prise & will revisit again and again & again. Excellent welcoming staff, good guest beers & great food.

It's perfect - don't change anything ! The weather - we got soaked !

LOVE this place. The pub is positively quaint, good food (a pint and a pie; how better to arrive in England?), very friendly staff, and tucked away in a residential neighborhood. I'd never have guessed there were rooms here, but boy was mine nice! Very surprising! Beautifully appointed, super comfortable bed with a variety of pillows to choose from, breakfast IN the room, ready for you. I rate any place that has real coffee as top; I had a coffee press (not Nescafe), plus tea, and shortbreads, and a HEALTHY breakfast (sorry, no heavy English one here). Plus two fans (though I didn't need them). Really well done, with all the quaintness of a historically old building (plumbing, stuck windows, fluctuating water temps.) but this isn't my first time around the English block. I expect those things now and accept them as business as usual. Highly recommend this if you're in Winchester.

Lovely friendly staff, great location and a very comfortable bed. The room was really clean and the food in the downstairs restaurant was great. We enjoyed sitting in the pub in the evenings it had a really friendly atmosphere.

The WiFi in our room was very poor. It was better downstairs but could do with boosting in the rooms. The bathroom had a great shower but the toilet needs attention. The refilling cistern was broken resulting in a loud groaning noise or the constant sound of water running as it refilled the cistern. At one point it stopped flushing and a lovely staff member came and tinkered with it. It’s an old building so plumbing will be a little cranky but this could definitely do with being fixed.

I arrived early, but was immediately checked in and able to put my luggage in the room, freeing me to go sightseeing. I had been moved to a "smaller" room because of a plumbing issue and was given a lower rate without asking. I thought the room was very nice.

Not really something I didn't like, just advice: The proprietor is very busy running the pub, which is not a complaint given her great attention to helping me when I arrived. Complete instructions are provided on a card in the room--just be sure to read them carefully when you arrive in terms of meals, getting in and out, etc.

Very nice welcome when we arrived approx 1600 from a very helpful lady. Nice comfortable room and bed. Bedding and towels were nice quality too. Bathroom contained a walk in shower with power shower.Tasteful decoration all through. Whilst breakfast is not served at this pub there was fresh milk in the fridge in the room With that was muesli, yoghurts and fresh fruit which were not chargeable, crockery/cutlery provided too. Good tea and coffee making facilities with cookies supplied too. All in all nice touches. We stayed on a Sundaynight , Sunday Lunch was on offer up to 1730, there is also a menu for other food which looks very nice. The pub was snug and comfortable and we spent a nice Sunday evening there . This is a local pub for some but not overly busy. It is also child friendly. We enjoyed our stay very much and will be booking again on our next trip to Winchester.

Nothing

Pleasant room, very comfortable bed, clean, nicely furnished and plenty of storage. Free permit so no issue parking, by the pub. It is really well located, just 10mins stroll into Winchester. We stayed at the pub for three nights and the food was so good we ate there every evening. All staff were friendly and welcoming. Breakfast was provided in the room’s fridge; much nicer than it sounds! The granola, muffins, fresh fruit and yogurts were all delicious. Would definitely stay there again.

Reading, in the evening, was challenging because the lighting was very subdued. In the bathroom, the light above the sink was faulty and very unreliable; not a big deal but doing my makeup was tricky!

Brilliant location. Only a short walk into town. There was on street parking right outside with the pub registering our car for a temporary parking permit. The rooms were beautifully furnished, quirky and comfy and the snacks and breakfast bits in the room, with fresh milk in the fridge, were a lovely touch. We didn’t eat or drink in the pub (had other plans) but the team were really friendly and helpful on check in. So good we’ve booked again already for next year!

There was nothing to not like.

Very welcoming staff who were very open and honest if anything was not up to their expectations for their guests. For example no hot water on one occasion, they sorted it quickly. Had dinner here which was so very good.

Unfortunately I had not researched parking in advance. It is street parking by permit. Staff at the pub registered the car. I always found a space. I got a parking ticket and pub staff reassured me they would sort it out.

Lovely pub with plenty of character. Friendly and helpful staff. Nice rooms. Breakfast in room but surprisingly good and satisfying. We didn't have a meal in the pub, but the menu and food looked very good. Walking distance to Winchester central and cathedral. Parking on local street with free parking permit.

Rooms were a bit small. However they were advertised as small and to be honest exceeded our expectation.
