Food was exceptional. Like, really good. I’d book if you plan eating there though. Room was comfortable and clean. Cosy, countryside decor. Wish I’d stayed longer than 1 night to be honest.
United KingdomThe hotel was very welcoming and comfortable, and staff were very friendly, nothing was too much trouble. It is obvious that they use only the very best quality food and ingredients. The croissant at breakfast were the best we have tasted, better even than in France. We were there for "Burger Night", a great idea and excellent take on an old classic.
United KingdomVery nicely styled and decorated room and bathroom, if a little dark. Set within lovely grounds of the old main building and pretty well kept gardens. I was pleasantly surprised, it really was delightful. Plenty of free parking very close by. Friendly and helpful staff who stored our two bicycles for us with no fuss.
United KingdomWe liked the rooms, large and comfortable. The food was very good, the breakfast was included and delicious! The staff were friendly. Lovely place ! We recommend it
MexicoGreat location. Beautiful building. Room was roomy and comfortable. The food was incredible - we had dinner one night which I would highly recommend. The breakfast which is included does not disappoint!
United KingdomI like the hotel especially the breakfast place where we can look out to the patio. Service was very good, despite the lack of lifts. That was the only thing we found “difficult” since we had big bags with us. But the staff were very helpful.
PhilippinesGood food, good service, friendly and adaptive to our needs.
United States of AmericaStaff were all very friendly and helpful. The property has many old world charms, with all that entails - low headroom, tricky door handles and many cosy nooks and crannies - a very peaceful and relaxing location (despite being on the end of the High Street) - if we’d wanted a modern chain hotel, we would have stayed in one! The Methuen Arms was ideally situated for our needs.
United KingdomIt was abnormally warm during our visit. The staff graciously upgraded us at no extra charge to a larger room with an oscillating fan.
United States of AmericaComfortable, helpful staff, pleasant place, very good breakfast, QUIET (apart from the usual infuriating fellow customers who thunder in at 1am, never lowering voices etc) I liked my room in the courtyard..

The Methuen Arms is an award winning Great British inn where hospitality meets fabulous food & drink at a relaxed pace. The property oozes history and dates back to Tudor times of 1463 when it was an impressive house known as ‘Winter’s Court’ owned by the ‘Nott’ family. It first became a public house in 1608 and ownership was later passed to the ‘Methuen’ family and Lord Methuen of the Corsham Court estate. Interestingly, the Duke of Edinburgh used to play skittles and darts here at The Methuen at the same time he was first courting Princess Elizabeth.
