    A lovely, comfortable, quiet hotel in the English countryside with a nice pub.

    The Crown and Anchor is off the beaten path and a wonderful place to get away. We drove many narrow, winding roads to find it (part of the adventure for us!). Our room was larger than we expected, beautifully decorated, and comfortable, with a king-sized bed and attached bathroom. We enjoyed lunch in the Crown's pub on the day we arrived, and the breakfast the next morning was quite good. We also enjoyed driving to nearby Hungerford for a walk along the canal and dinner at the Amore Italian restaurant.

    We were staying as a family at the Crown & Anchor. It was fantastic! The service (very friendly, Mary's "Good morning!" at breakfast made my day...), the rooms, the food. Situated in a charming small, pittoresque and neat village with very friendly inhabitans. Dinner was also delicious. You would not assume to get such a good meal in the middle of nowhere. Great breakfast. We left (unfortunately had to leave) with very happy faces on the next day and will come back, hopefully, some time.

    Only small complaint, we would have liked a choice of continental breakfast in addition to the hot orders.

    The staff were lovely and the food was excellent. Beautiful old pub with log fire. The bedrooms are to a high standard, with top quality bed linen and amazing bathroom products and decent fluffy towels. Exceptional value for money. I would definitely stay again.

    That we only had 24 hrs there, could have stayed much longer.

    We can't rate the Crown and Anchor enough. Everyone and everything, especially the food, was exceptional. Room was lovely and comfortable with great facilities and the staff went out of their way to make you feel welcome. It's in a beautiful village and we went on a 2 and a half hour walk where we saw amazing wildlife.The pub can provide detailed walks of varying lengths. Food was stunning and great quality wine. Decor is lovely.

    Would have liked some fruit at breakfast.

    The room was beautiful, very comfortable bed and perfect temperature. Lovely, very well equipped ensuite too. Very dog friendly. The food was very good but rather top end for price. Would definitely stay again. Thanks all!

    A lovely pub tucked away in Ham village. lots of local walks available. The food ion the evening was good but a little pricy. Breakfast was very nicely cooked but we woul;d have liked some cereal and fruit. the room was very comfortable and quiet
