Lovely Unpretentious Spot
This is a a superbly-equipped locale with a popular pub, real log fireplace and comfortable accommodations. Peacefully situated in central Hannington, it's set back enough to be relaxing without being too far from the attractions of lively Swindon. Cosy furnishings and an interesting menu keep locals and guests coming back again and again. Plenty of parking and hot or cold options for breakfast. Sunday Lunch features several meats, puddings, cheeses and lovely vegetables with gravy, while favourite dinner dishes include the steak and ale pie, iron flat sirloin steak and tasty assorted ales.

Cosy Rooms
Some rooms are in the original building and others in renovated annexes, all adequately furnished and comfortable for most. Good bathrooms with fantastic shower pressure, tasteful decor, high ceilings with exposed architectural features, spotlessly kept and of a good average temperature.
