Location and Parking. Very comfortable bed. Main road could be noisy but not a problem when window was closed. A fan was supplied to keep the room cool on hot nights with window closed.

Richards United Kingdom

It was perfect short stay accommodation for our sisters weekend. The family room was large with comfy beds a lovely hot shower tea coffee facilities all great. We all enjoyed a lovely nights sleep after a day in Salisbury we will most certainly be returning . The cost was very reasonable.

Vicky United Kingdom

Everything was as described and as expected. The out of hours check in was very simple. Staff were very pleasant and attentive. There was one minor issue with the bathroom that I brought to their attention and it was fixed immediately. An unexpected bonus was a garden with the river Wylye running past.

Host Information

Host review score
The Wheatsheaf was built somewhen in the 1800's,a building with plenty of history and lots of character. Situated on the A36 with a lovely riverside garden. We have 3 double rooms and one family room, all with en suites.
We took over the buisness in September 2015 and have since been renovating and renewing the premises to acheive its true potential.
We are situated on the edge of Wilton a quintessential market town and the ancient capital of wessex, right next door to wilton shopping village and the home of the famous Wilton Carpets. 15 minutes drive from salisbury city center, bus stops near by and a short walk into wilton town market square.
