Short stay in triple room.
Great little guest house. We had a top floor room for 3, and everything was in the room. Only issue was that the double bed was Farr too soft and uncomfortable, causing my wife and I to roll together in the middle whenever we moved. Breakfast was continental, served in room and was good.

Lovely closet place
Nice place with lovely owners, made to feel at home. Didn’t get room I booked - but was told this was down to hotels.com not the owners.

Lovely little B&B centrally located in Salisbury.
This is a lovely little B&B very conveniently located in the heart of Salisbury. I stayed only one night while visiting a client in the area but was very satisfied with the comfort of the accommodation, the continental breakfast delivered to my door, and the WiFi signal (always important when travelling on business). Plus, the decor is absolutely up-to-date, quirky, and charming. I parked on the street directly across the from the B&B because I was leaving at 8 am (when the parking restrictions come into effect) but they do have a parking close by. Highly recommend.

A real gem!
I stayed at Spire House for a weekend with two friends. The reviews for Spire House were great, and they weren't wrong! Lovely house, great service, and real attention to detail. We stayed in room 3 (triple room at the back on top floor) which was lovely. Proximity to the Cathedral was brilliant, and a walk to town not much further. Easily parked right outside. Would recommend this B&B to anyone wanting a relaxing stay, on the doorstep of town!

Small personal b&b close to town centre
The owners john and Lois were very friendly and couldn't do enough to make our stay comfortable, they were also very helpful with information about Salisbury's restaurants and places of interest. The breakfast was excellent and reasonable. The room was a good size and had a four poster and was beautifully presented with a large ensuite. The wardrobe could have been bigger but was adequate. There was a fridge with milk and water, tea and coffee and chocolate,apples and snacks (a nice touch). There was some road noise but we live in the country so may not bother most people. We also feel the cold and couldn't adjust radiator we used an extra duvet which was fine. Altogether a lovely weekend and very enjoyable stay. Would recommend to anyone.

Bike in the back garden
The room and public areas were clean, well and cleverly appointed--lots of artistic touches and color. Our room was high but on the street--a bit noisy so ask for a back room if that might bother you (did have a view of the spire). Breakfast was not included but there were nice choices at £5 apiece. We were on a bike tour and they stored our tandem in the back garden. We walked to the cathredral foe evensong--a lovely way to see/hear the ancient and awe-inspiring space. We had a nice dinner at the Cosy Inn--a quirky pub on New Street nearby.

In Salisbury you should stay here---really!
Spire B&B is a charming house with beautiful rooms and private baths, right outside the close (the wall) around the cathedral. It also is convenient to the famous Salisbury market on Thursday and Saturday, as well as to the bus tours to Stonehenge. But what makes this extraordinary are the hosts, John and Lois, who couldn't be more helpful and friendly. They are always available to answers questions, help with suggestions--and John cooks a terrific breakfast.

Loved it!
Has to be one of the best B&B's in England! Great rooms, location, and fanatic hosts! It's worth a trip to Salisbury just to stay here.

Good value B&B with a great location.
Salisbury was one of those places we've never got round to visiting so it was the latest location for a long weekend (3 nights). Torn between splashing out on a Country House hotel or just going for a "nice" pleasant B&B. The accountant in me opted for the latter. Perused Tripadvisor for a while and went for Shire House. First of all this is a B&B so don't expect Country House hotel luxury. Having said that there are B&Bs and then there are B&Bs and this is a very nice one. Outside it looks a bit cramped and is on a Main Street but inside its bigger than you think. Our room was spacious (4 poster bed) very nicely decorated and a little quirky. The owners are very friendly and couldn't have been more helpful assisting with parking, luggage carrying, recommendations for places to see and places to eat. Breakfast is optional for an extra charge but we just nipped into town. The location is excellent, literally just across the road from a gated entrance into the Cathedral area. If you are doing sightseeing do visit Stonehenge (amazing), do the cathedral roof tour if you can manage 300+ steps (£10 charge but worth it), do stroll around the city (fantastic buildings and so much history). Acid test is - could I live in Salisbury - yes I could AND if I was coming back would I stay at Shire House - yes I would.

Welcoming, comfortable, well located
Lois and John are marvellous, friendly and helpful hosts in this excellent bed and breakfast just outside the Salisbury Cathedral Close. The walk to the cathedral is only a few hundred metres and the spire can indeed by seen from the house. The room was very comfortable and well equipped, quiet, nice bed and pillows, satisfactory bathroom. Parking is not really a problem as there is a likelihood of finding a space in the street outside after 6.30, and John or Lois can give you a special permit to keep your car there all of the next day. Alternatively, John can show you to a car-park down the street and around the corner. The breakfast was very good, and I tried Lois's great slow-cooked porridge with fruit on one morning. All in all, this is one of the best bed and breakfast establishments I have ever stayed in, highly recommended.

Good stay but lousy pillow
Extremely friendly owners that make you feel at home. Convenient location, but parking is hit or miss, depending if spots on the street are available outside the B&B. What makes me downgrade my review is the thin, old, lumpy pillow on my bed--bummed me out--I mean, a comfy night's sleep is what it's all about, isn't it?! But my husband and daughter had no such complaints.

最高でした。
口コミ通りの快適で、素敵なB&Bでした。オーナー夫妻も、必要な情報は的確に教えてくれて、かと言って過度にならず、本当に寛げました。何と言っても水周りの清潔さに感動しました。駅からは、歩くには遠く、バス停からも、重い荷物を持ってだと距離がありますが、コッツウォルズを回るバスの停留所へのアクセスも分かりやすく、また是非利用したいです。

すばらしい立地とサービス
大聖堂から歩いて５分ほどのすばらしい立地とオーナー夫妻のフレンドリーなもてなしに、家族一同大満足の２泊でした。３階のシングルベット３台の部屋で、大聖堂とは逆の向きの部屋でしたが、通りに面していない分静かだったのではないかと思います。部屋には、お菓子のほかりんごなどの果物も用意されていて、おいしくいただきました。朝食は別料金ですが、個人の注文にあわせてイングリッシュ・ブレックファースト（食後のコーヒー・紅茶つき）がおなか一杯食べられました。玄関の鍵も貸してくれるので、夜遅くまでパブで飲んで帰っても大丈夫でした。次に来る機会もぜひ利用したいと思います。ＷｉＦｉは無料で問題なく使えました。
