Came to Aldbourne as I am a fan of Band of Brothers and was keen to see the local places relevant to the village's history with Easy Company, and spent a day walking around the area taking plenty of photos. My room (Guth) was clean and warm and had all that I needed, the food was wonderful, and the staff were all lovely with nothing too much trouble at all. Really nice touch with the rooms named after members of Easy Company, and having a picture on the wall of your named person so that you can read more about them. If I come back to Aldbourne again I would definitely stay at The Crown! :-)

A great location if your a history buff ,this was headquarters for 101 Airborne,Easy Company aka Band of Brothers. Rooms named after the company soldiers. Great food and beer and a top quality breakfast. Undergoing an update at present so few teething problems but would stay here in a heartbeat again. Comfortable room and very large. We had Major Dick Winters room. Aldbourne was also used in a Dr Who in the 70's . Food in the evening was very good and breakfast exceptional,the local sausage was one of the best I've had in a long time.

Teething problems, one bolt holding toilet seat in bathroom, bad shower head.

I am absolutely delighted to have stayed at The Crown, a historic inn nestled in a quaint village. The food was superb, with a commendable selection of beers, and the staff were incredibly friendly and engaging. The rooms were spacious, well-equipped, and warmly inviting. I truly had the opportunity to unwind in such a traditional pub atmosphere. This establishment is certainly worth a visit not only for its rich history but also for its outstanding food, drink, and accommodation. Check in and check out was simple, the whole experience was exactly what I was looking for! Thanks for the Birthday wishes too.

You can probably guess my answer?

The location was great, we left for Heathrow the next day and it was a good base away from the bustle of the city. Had dinner and breakfast here and both were excellent. Really elevated pub food and some good vegetarian options which was lovely to see.

The rooms were very dated which you would expect in a place like this, full of history. The plumbing however needs some serious work and we had a dripping tap most of the night. There were signs up to say this was all getting renovated shortly but would have been nice to be told about it by the person who checked us in too.

Staff, the food, the beautiful decor of our twin room (named “Lipton”). We paid extra to have dinner and that was wonderful too.

My Mum has a knee replacement. She can manage stairs but the step up into the shower was a little too high for her to manage. I’m sure if I’d spoke to staff they would’ve had a solution but my Mum didn’t want to make a fuss. Most people would easily manage getting in the shower but installing a grab rail maybe a good idea for those who are less confident trying

The Crown is an atmospheric 17th century inn, with lots of history connected to it. It is set in the middle of a picturesque village, overlooking the village pond. The food was excellent and the live music and friendly atmosphere in the pub made for an enjoyable evening. The bed was very comfortable and there were plenty of teas and coffees in the room.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. There was nothing we didn't like.

Welcoming pub atmosphere. The bar staff were very friendly and helpful. We had an evening meal from the menu, which is short and non-extensive but reasonably priced. The evening meal was good. Breakfast was cooked, my partner was provided with gluten free toast and there was plenty of tea and coffee.

Our room was very tired. The bed was OK, but the bathroom was very much in need of updating. The carpets are very, let's say, worn.

Lovely village pub, nice welcome when I checked in after stepping off my hike of the Ridgeway Path a few weeks ago. Super-friendly staff. Lovely clean room with all facilities. Nice bar to spend time in with a real history - D Day, Band of Brothers, and Dr Who. Decent dinner and great breakfast.

They seemed to forget me for quite a while when I seated myself for my dinner. I get it these days. 64 year old geezer, silver head, sitting in the corner. Nice pizza though.

3rd stay in the last month. Loved it again. Packed with locals on a Sunday evening which was lovely to see. As usual, staff - and locals - very friendly. Had an evening meal this time - food is relatively basic compared to 'foodie' pubs ( fish & chips/burgers/pizzas etc) but really good quality, good portion size and not expensive. Well worth it!

Trouble with shower again ( may be it's just me??).

Lovely old pub with a really interesting history in a nice quiet location, staff were all very friendly and couldn’t do enough for us, breakfast was great, room was nice with fresh towels. Only downside was the bed wasn’t the most comfortable but that’s nitpicking as for the price you really can’t complain when everything else was so good.
