I wanted to take my parents out for a quality lunch in the area around Calne (as it was a half way point). Checked out the area on Trip Advisor and this place stood out from the reviews given. Always a bit cynical of sites like this so turned up expecting a good experience but nothing special. I was, frankly,... More

We have had an excellent meal (again). The staff are first class and the variety on the menu and the quality of the food is second to none! Such a pleasant evening. The Restaurant is also the village pub, and a lovely hotel. The village of Compton Basset is Delightful, picturesque and quintessentially English. Trust me, you will love it.

What can I say, scrupulously clean, excellent, attentive, friendly staff and quality food with superb presentation. We... More

The food is excellent, with a fine dining edge and the staff and service is warm, friendly and extremely professional. We love the obvious pride taken in ensuring a dining experience is one that would always be recommended and returned to.

Booked in by friends for a wedding nearby, we really didn't have a clue what to expect. Arriving at a pretty white-painted pub, we ducked into the bar to check in and found ourselves in a friendly, airy room, no doubt altered over the years but still unspoilt - no ersatz Olde Worlde here, just a glowing log burner, a...

Headed up by the lovely Tara & Danny, a great place with warm, welcoming hospitality, beautiful rural location (complete with sheep!) & excellent, well trained staff. The restaurant is a true culinary gem...the best pork belly I've ever tasted! Thanks for making our stay extra special! Pete & Mel Williams

We have visited the White Horse Inn on many occasions and without exception, the food, beer and service has been first class! For a recent special sunday lunch visit, I spoke to Tara regarding my vegan requirements and the 3 course meal I had totally exceeded my expectations! If you have any special dietary requirements please talk to the staff... More
