Karen was an absolute delight. She booked breakfast and dinner and it always came exactly on time. The rooms are big and easy to work in with a desk, sofa and everything you need. Breakfast was awesome!
The "foyer" menu was very old fasioned. It was very fancy and I struggled to choose. I would recommend a simple choice of a pasta, curry, pie, burger, pizza, fish or salad but named as such not written with french names. No light in the carpark. Tripped over twice trying to get to my car as was pitch black!

It was like a homecoming - I've not been here for five years but the owner recognised me straight away, remembered my name too and even why I was there before! I had a single room - "The Winchester" - which was spotlessly clean, provided with tea/coffee facilities as well as an iron and hairdryer plus a USB charger and a very comfortable bed indeed. The countryside location is pleasant and it is within easy reach of Royal Wootton Bassett. Breakfast was included in the price and it was delivered to my room at the exact time I requested.
Blackout curtains would have been nice as I'm easily disturbed by light and the only other thing - which is completely out of control of the owners of course - is that the road my room faced can be a little noisy. However, being a light sleeper is my problem!

What an absolute gem of a place to find if only every property on Booking was of the same standard. We chose Schoolhouse & Restaurant as a one night stop on our way from Liverpool to Glastonbury for a weeks camping. What we got was totally unexpected. The lady who greeted us was so welcoming and helpful to a fault and the place is so full of character and on top of all this we were treated to breakfast in our room on the morning we were due to depart at no extra cost. A totally delightful and wonderful experience. We shall return.
There is nothing to dislike about this property.

What a fabulous place to stay. Clean, comfortable and a beautiful property in a beautiful location, plus only 20 minutes from Avebury, where I was doing a weekend workshop. Food was really nice and Karen is a delight 🌹😁 I’d highly recommend staying here and will do so when I’m in the area again 😊 P.s. I do t have a photo of the bathroom, so I’ve added a photo of the fab restaurant, in case it says ‘bathroom’ underneath! 😆
Nothing at all 😊

A great location. Not far off the M4 but it feels like a countryside escape. It was nice to feel that this was a unique place, a refreshing change from so many hotels these days. Breakfast was lovely, freshly cooked and delivered to the room. The bed was comfortable.
It won't affect everyone, but we didn't realise check in ended at 9pm. We just made it! Also even though the kitchen was closed, hot food cannot be brought onto the premises. Again, we were happy to pick up some sandwiches so it didn't affect our enjoyment of our stay.

The menu may be small but the food provided was of an excellent quality. The whole atmosphere was very relaxed and the owners were interested and talkative. The room was one of the quietest we ever had.
We hadn't taken a shower in a bath for a long time, but here it happened! The location was a bit out of the way, however this was no problem since the hotel provided dinner.

I loved the look of the building and slightly old worldish feel to it, the feeling of seclusion and the friendly staff(Karen) who was more than accommodating, friendly and absolutely charming with every interaction we had!
Now i realy loved this hotel so please see these as more unfortunate points than actual complaints, I had issues with the the shower the evening of our stay, but it was absolutely fine in the morning, so frustrating but not a huge issue(I just had a bath instead) and my partner had a hair in her food in the morning, again I say these are more unfortunate than actual bad points as they could have happened anywhere and the hotel was other lovely and clean etc and would definitely stay again!

Nice quiet location, a little out the way for me, but the room was nice, last minute booking but was very accommodating due to late booking.
Could hear noise from the other rooms, TV late at night, I believe they were watching spiderman homecoming as I started watching it myself and a child crying early on but maybe thats just me as I wanted an early night but the child at the time kept screaming their head off! Also the shower drain clogged up and soaked everywhere just FYI

The full English breakfast was outstanding. Without a doubt the best of our trip. It was evident the items were top quality local produce, particularly the black pudding. The room was as expected, in an older property - clean, comfortable, a touch stuffy but just in an old building way, not unpleasant. Furnishings also consistent with the building. Our host was excellent: friendly and welcoming and very organized.
Nothing we did not like. We were intrigued by all the rules and cautions in the listing and website. Made things sound rather stern. Turned out, that was intended to be clear and complete. In no way did it reflect the welcome and the care during the stay.

I was greeted by Karen upon arrival, a smashing lady and so friendly. The building is (obviously) converted from an old schoolhouse and is a little quirky, which I feel added to the charm of the place. My room, at the rear of the property, looked out over fields. Breakfast was delicious. Unfortunately, I did not have a meal in the restaurant, and so I cannot comment on this.
I think perhaps the hot water could have been a little hotter, but that is all.
