We have stayed in this delightful inn on two occasions whilst walking the Kennet and Avon Canal. It is well off the beaten track , quiet , and restful. The bar is homely , full of character and characters ! We ate in the restaurant and the food was very good. Breakfast is in a league of its own with... More

The Swan Inn is a real gem of a place, off the beaten track away from the hustle and bustle. In a beautiful setting, had drinks on the lovely sun terrace and were made to feel so very welcome by the staff and locals. The accommodation was homely, clean and comfortable. We ate in the restaurant, the food was superb,... More

We spent a very comfortable night in this pub within picturesque countryside . Staff friendly and welcoming and we enjoyed a good quality bar meal at lunch time and an excellent breakfast , We were visiting Littlecote House Hotel nearby for an evening meal so it was very well situated for our taxi pick up .

The barman was very chatty and my husband explained he liked to visit this pub because our surname is Inkpen and the pub is in the village of Inkpen! We ordered lunch from the menu which was served quickly and efficiently. I had the spaghetti bolognese and... More

The restaurant had a menu with a slightly different slant and was fine but nothing exceptional given a very small sample. The breakfast was good+ and at a very civilised time. I think that the pub itself is closed on a Monday so you can have the... More

Love the Swan in every way and do not understand why it is not more popular among local residents. The service I have always found to be wonderful and my favourite homemade pate and organic steaks invariably beyond compare. Well-priced for what it is and never ever over-busy in my experience since going there a few months ago.

I stayed over night while working locally. After a hard day's work the brilliant food, punching well above it's weight really hit the spot. This was restaurant standard food in a pub. A very rare commodity these days. I had swordfish which was cooked to perfection; often can be overcooked and dry but not here. There is a decent choice... More
