It's been a few years now since I last stayed at the Boar's Head so I guess my review may not be as relevant as the latest postings. However, I thought I would like to give my impressions as I thoroughly enjoyed my 3 visits and would definitely return if the opportunity arises. The size of the hotel is ideal,... More

We recently stayed overnight at this delightful hotel en-route from the north to the south of England. A warm welcome on our arrival by a lovely Portuguese receptionist, who pointed out the main areas of the hotel, before showing us to our delightful en-suite well equipped room with an extremely comfortable bed. Although the room was small, it was more... More

I visited this hotel with my wife as our son was on a D of E trek in the area. My wife, who is superb at such things obtained a room and B&B for us and our dog for the stunning price of £50 through bookings.com. This was half the normal price. On arrival you are greeted with a beautiful... More

Had one night here and took advantage of the winter offer. Lovely hotel in a great little village. Free entry to the castle was good and the tour informative. Had the weather been better a stroll round the grounds would have been great. Stayed in one of the annex rooms which was fine and well appointed with nice little touches.... More
