Just back from a couple of days in rural Wiltshire. After a great lunch at the Bell at Ramsbury and a pleasant stroll around Marlborough, we were looking forward to the icing on the cake - staying at the Pear Tree Inn... .. but we left feeling disappointed! Don't get me wrong - the room was excellent, the pub is... more

Upon arrival at the Pear Tree, we were slightly dissappointed with the location as from the pictures on activehotels.com (i.e. one of a row of thatched cottages by a brook), we expected this to be where the Pear Tree was but the thatched cottages and brook were no-where to be seen, we even went for a drive and walk the... more

From the pot of tea by the fireside on arrival to the late checkout time on departure we had a great overnight stop. Most comfortable hotel beds we have had for ages. B & O TV, smart new bathrooms etc all within the framework of a very old inn. Restaurant was very good although the starters were the weakest of... more

We have just spent a weekend at the Pear Tree, and loved every minute. Fantastic breakfasts, delicious dinners, good walking out the door, wonderful rooms & the most friendly, helpful staff I have come across for ages. We thoroughly recommend it! (p.s. I promise we are genuine customers - this report is so glowing, you might be suspicious!) more

Having read rave reviews in various national newspapers, we decided to give the Pear Tree a try on our way back from a work trip down south. It was worth the visit. We stayed in a lovely comfy room in one of the outbuildings - very good soundproofing as well as great furnishings and TV/sound system. We know the soundproofing... more

This is probably one of the most lovely rooms I have ever stayed in. It has been furnished to a really high standard whilst retaining the character of the property. The bed was big, comfy with white linen. The bathroom had lots of Molton Brown goodies and was beautifully tiled in natural stone. Dinner was incredibly yummy and I agree... more

We stopped in at the Pear Tree without having a booking for dinner or a room, we had simply left home Friday morning with a list of a few places off the Alistair Sawday website. It wasn't just a pleasant surprise it was a wonderful shock! First the food is fantastic, they have a reputation and deserve it. Great wines... more

The Pear Tree is an inn with rooms. The Inn is a traditional, relaxing pub with a great atmosphere. It has open fires, candles on the tables and excellent food. The bedrooms are delightful, a comfortable bed with fresh, crisp white linen sheets, soft, comfortable pillows and home made biscuits with the tea and coffee in the room. The service... more

What a delightful stay we had in The Pear Tree Inn. Booked for the Easter weekend, the only place with available rooms three weeks prior the stay. Not cheap at £105, but the quality and attention to details totally justifies the price. The room was absolutely delightful; although the building itself is fairly old, built in 18th century from the... more
