The Hatchet Inn - Wiltshire

We make a pit stop for lunch here on our way to Cornwall every year. We found it originally by mistake.. I booked the wrong Hatchett Inn and ended up here! So delighted we did as the food is fantastic! Real English pub food and the most beautiful setting! Picture perfect… please go out of your way to visit

If you’re looking for the quintessential English country pub in peaceful, idyllic surroundings, then look no further. It has all the attributes you’d expect to see on a picture postcard the thatched roof, the beams in the ceiling and the lovely flowers that surround the buildings in beautifully maintained gardens. The staff are all extremely welcoming, friendly and attentive, the accommodation rooms are spotless and extremely comfortable. If you’re going there for a meal, make sure you’re really hungry beforehand the food is of peerless quality and the portions are as generous as they are filling. If you’re staying there, the same applies for the breakfast in the mornings. There’s a great selection of drinks on offer we particularly enjoyed their local brew, Hatchet Ale. Thank you Jerry, Millie and all the staff for your hard work in making our stay at the Hatchet such a pleasure we’ll definitely be back.

A beautiful pub with good food, great own recipe ale and a fantastic atmosphere. There is a beautiful lit water well too!

Had 2 nights in this lovely country pub with my partner and our dog Ted. We stayed in room 1, The room was large, warm, and comfortable, it had all you would need, the shower was powerful and lovely and hot. We ate in the pub both nights, and breakfast was included with the room, dinner and breakfast was all freshly cooked, and very tasty, the menu, is your usual country pub fair, but very well done.. both our evening meals were perfectly cooked. I had sirloin on the first night and turkey and ham pie on the second, my partner had steak pie, then scampi. We had cooked breakfast both days, with tea and toast.. cereals where also available and fresh orange juice was on the table. All was fresh and cooked to order and lovely. The owner gerry is very welcoming, and all the staff are friendly and can't do enough for you.. the pub itself is absolutely wonderfull a proper country pub I would say, exposed beans rouring fire and thatch roof. We would highly recommend 5/5 we had an absolutely wonderful stay..

I visited the restaurant twice last week. During my first visit, I had garlic mushrooms, whitebait, steak pie, and Cumberland sausage, all of which were cooked perfectly and the service was excellent. However, during my second visit, we had to wait almost an hour and a half for our food, which was eventually served by the bar manager with apologies. Unfortunately, the calves liver and bacon were dry and the fish pie was overcooked. The soup was served in a cracked bowl. The front of house staff were embarrassed and made amends through the bill, although it would have been more appropriate for the kitchen staff to apologize. I hope this was just a one-time occurrence, as I have enjoyed dining at this restaurant in the past and have always received excellent food and service.
