Overnight stay....
Very nice room, although slightly on the cool side with freezing temperatures outside. The pub itself is extremely rustic and cosy!

Warm and welcome
Very comfortable traditional Inn after a wet and windy journey. Warming log fire and friendly staff. Both accomodation and food were excellent - highly recommended.

The room was immaculate and extremely comfortable. Best night's sleep I had in a hotel for a while. I would say the only downside would be hearing tenants walking around in the room above us but this not take away from the overall comfort. Staff were also very accommodating with requests.

Very dog friendly.
A lovely stay. Everything great. With a little attention would have been excellent. The little outdoor place to sit with the dogs could have been swept and the outside of the room. Would save the poor maid of leaves and gravel treading in. Also the curtains were not great. Easy enough to put more hooks on. Lovely comfy bed and a shower to die for!!

Sometimes it's the little things...
My wife and I always stay at the Bunk Inn when in the area, and have never had any problems. On this occasion, we both wanted to order a dinner main that we were only told was not available when we tried to order it. We were offered an alternative, but that was £10/head more expensive and not on the menu. In the round not a big thing, but perhaps could have been more clear, and the alternative offered at the same price,

Romantic Getaway
A wholesome, comfortable, country style get away tucked away from the business of the main town. A perfect place for a get away of any occasion! Everything you could need and more paired with quirky design and attentive staff.

Everything marred by loud music from 10pm and noisy punters until the early hours. Good bits forgotten after a lousy night's sleep.

We stayed here for my husbands birthday. We waited 10 mins at the bar for someone to appear to show us to our room. The room was shabby, the curtains had fallen down and the cleanliness was poor. Supper was average with a few dishes not available, the staff were pleasant but looked bored sitting down playing on their phones. All in all it was expensive and not an enjoyable stay!

I was hopeful, it disappointed
When I first arrived, I had high hopes. The room seemed nicely decorated, the bed was comfortable, and there were several nice touches, such as a wireless charger by the bed and a Nespresso machine for coffee. Then the cold light of day came, and I noticed how dirty the room was. There was thick dust along the edges of the bedroom carpet and behind the bathroom door, as well as rogue hairs on the bathroom sink. There also appeared to be a speck of what looked like blood on one of the pillow cases. Next, it transpired that none of the 'nice touches' I'd previously identified actually worked. The wireless charger was broken. They gave me a new one but it wasn't powerful enough to charge an iPhone (my diagnosis was that the USB wall plug didn't have a large enough wattage). The Nespresso machine also didn't work, emitting a red flashing light whenever I tried to make a coffee. I reported this to them on my way out for the day, and they said somebody would try to fix it. When I returned that evening, it was evident that somebody had tried to fix the machine, as it had been moved. When I tried it, it still didn't work. When asked how my stay had been when checking out, I brought up the Nespresso machine, and suggested it might need descaling. I was told: "we did that last week, they're just a bit temperamental at the moment". Unsure what this meant, I waited, hoping for some kind of redemption; maybe to be offered a coffee from behind the bar. The moment passed. I left.

Comfotable and friendly
First night was awful, we stayed in a ground floor room. The floorboards above creaked and the people in the room thumped around all night. We complained and we were moved upstairs without question. The staff were very helpful and friendly.

Wouldn’t go back
Stains on the carpet , light shinning under the main door as there was a big gap, so had to put cushions there to stop light coming through . Bed really uncomfortable and pillows flat . Bad mould and grime in the bathroom tiles. There was a brown stain on one on the bath sheets so my husband couldn’t shower as mine was wet. Thick dust on the outskirts of the bedroom carpet. Thought we would get bottled water unopened but got a reusable bottle with tap water in it. The continental breakfast was poor ,pastries burnt no yoghurts or cheese or meats . Only option for fruit was apple or orange. The evening bar staff were friendly only had a drink so can’t comment on the dinner.

Excellent Choice
Just had 3 night stay with group of friends. Excellent location, plenty of parking. Excellent spacious rooms. Well looked after in the bar and restaurant by Brian and Grace and Didier the Chef. Very, very friendly. Believe building to have some renovations next year which will only improve the whole experience.

Stay and dog
Staff were helpful. House keepers good. Oldish property needs some attention but takes time now. Room comfortable includes bed. FOOD. Good food well cooked and presented. Price about right for Newbury area. Good chef's. One error I got a very over done burger but the the rest of my party loved the food so I did not want make it an issue then so left it to the morning, a bit late perhaps. It was an error after all. ROUND UP. Good place to stay ideal place to walk the dog. Plenty of parking. Plenty of areas to sit outside Yes I would consider staying again.

Great Value for Money
Although the pub itself was closed The accommodation was open and a continental breakfast supplied. Exceptional value for the money. Would have be nice to be told that Room 8 is around the back of the building as it was dark when I arrived and didn't notice until I'd circumnavigated the building.
