We had an 80th birthday lunch here on a sunny Saturday afternoon at this hotel. During the whole booking and planning process their communication was seamless. On the day, the staff were calm and considerate. The food was delicious (chef Nick deserves his high reputation). The table - which took up the entire dining room - was beautifully presented. They...

Very expensive for one night, the bathroom was very dissapointing with a shower curtain that stuck to you an an unreachable loo rool holder! However, I slept like a log in a lovely bed and enjoyed a delicios meal and brakfast the next day. Stunning location, just a shame about the price!

Was looking forward to staying here, due mainly to the good food reviews. I warned my husband that the room might not be brilliant but dinner would be, so we were both taken aback when it was all very clean and pleasant - not at all dated. Lots of hot drinks choices in the room, home-made biscuits, fruit, and White... More

Absolutely excellent hotel. Not at all formal and very relaxing. The bedroom we had 'the four poster',was really comfortable and cosy. The food was excellent and the staff attentive without being intrusive. If you fancy a weekend break in a superb tranquil setting then this hotel should be top of your list The only downside - having to leave!

I had a very disappointing experience with Howards House. I had planned to have my wedding reception there. At best they were indifferent, at worse they just didn't care. It took days for them to get back to me on more than one occasion. I just got excuses. I wanted to feel special but they made me feel anything but.... More

We spent ages trying to find a hotel for a couple of days in Feb. We try to steer clear of the big chains and spa hotels and have found some of the boutique hotels rather lacking in service. Howard's House is totally different. Traditional but not old fashioned, peaceful but with wonderfully attentive service, fantastic food that doesn't break... More

A really wonderful Valentine's taster menu - just as it should be. Small portions of superbly presented food, ambitious without being daft, full of interesting flavours. Comfortable dining room and lovely service. The breakfast was very good too, ample portions and a good choice. We agreed, though, with several previous comments, that the bathroom in particular could do with upgrading.... More

Howard's House is set in a perfect village in the midst of the Wiltshire countryside. The welcome is friendly and one is made to feel like a guest should. Our room overlooked the garden and church and was incredibly peaceful. There has been comment that the rooms are outdated - they are not modern but they are comfy and suit... More

We stayed at Howard's House a few weeks ago and had dinner there with some friends. The setting is asolutely charming albut I I would say the bedroom we stayed in was a little "tired", although immaculately clean. The big surprise was the incredible food. we live in central London and eat out all the time and our dinner was... More
