Really good value
We came across this by accident, staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Nice large room with plenty of space. Everything was on hand with a fabulous breakfast. Would definitely stay here again. The only criticism is the bathroom could do with being refreshed. For the price it really was exceptional ! We are only sorry we didn’t have time to have a meal in the pub.

Location was perfect, being next to the park. The room was very good and the breakfast was excellent. The only thing that could have made it better was to have a ground floor room, because we found the stairs difficult, having a dog.

Amazing Service
The amazing service and friendly, welcoming staff made a great impression. We turned up late and missed last orders for food; however, they were incredibly accommodating, providing us with cutlery and plates so we could order in. The room was great, clean, and had everything we needed for a comfortable night's stay. I would definitely consider this hotel for another visit.

This was a budget stay on a trip back from airport. It was cheap and Ines expectations were limited. The disappointing thing is that it could so easily have been good but the general maintenance and cleanliness of the property is very poor. In the bedroom there was black spot mould on the en-suite ceiling; the shower door/ seal was mouldy; the shower control was very badly worn and hard to use; the toilet was dirty under the waterline and the mattress was beyond its best with springs very evident. The outside areas were at best grubby with rotten fencing and a feel of unkempt decline. Inside the pub it just felt grubby. A potentially very nice set up with very helpful staff is clearly badly managed and is lacking maintenance input from the owners.

Plenty of free parking .The room and bathroom were clean and comfortable . Plenty of tea and coffee , with the kettle. It was near a country park with a lake to the side of it . The food in the attached pub was lovely. Free breakfast and plenty of it. The best bit , that can make or break a stay The staff.All friendly and helpful. If we have to go back to Swindon it will be The Sun Inn we stay at .

Definitely worth staying.👍
Barry the landlord was very helpful and friendly. All the bar staff were friendly. The food was basic pub grub, but, very good. As a CAMRA member, I was pleased to see they offer the Camra discount. My room was very comfortable and clean. Breakfast was included in the room price, and very enjoyable. I will certainly stay again when working in this area.
