Cozy hotel

A nice hotel in a rural area. You probably need a car to visit places around. The service was very good and the staff were really helpful. There were few alternatives for breakfast, but the traditional English breakfast was good. The room was quite clean but some dust.

We stayed at the Furze Bush Inn to be close to our tour at Highclere Castle. The place is an authentic English County Inn, surrounded by greenery and space. There is a great pub in the front and a great restaurant for dinner. The staff is completely accommodating It’s a beautiful old inn and a charming experience!

I only stopped for one night as I was attending a show at Newbury. My room was very large and comfortable. The staff were very friendly and attentive and able to help me with gluten free options (of which there were plenty). Pub and restaurant areas are fantastic. All in all a great stay :)

This is a charming, family-run inn near Highclere Castle (Downton Abbey). The accommodations were comfortable although simple, and the pub is fantastic, with really excellent food. The service by the family that owns th Inn and their employees is very good. The prices are reasonable, and the locals are friendly. The garden is very pretty also. No complaints, would stay again. The tomato soup and goat cheese salad were standouts.

Gave us what it said on the box. Room a little small but fine for our one night stay. King rather than double bed would have been better.
