“A true country getaway!”

This was our third hotel of five on this trip. I had booked here expecting to be actually in the town of Newbury in preparation for a visit to Highclere Castle, but found it was an $18 taxi ride from Newbury station to a true country inn. Without a car, we were a bit isolated, but, the travel consideration aside, it ranks high on our hotel experiences. Andy, the hotel manager, is a gem, and all the staff and hotel/pub customers we met were lovely. The breakfast was outstanding, and the only complaint about dinner was that they sold out of some food choices before we came to eat.
