Harry and I had two nights at this very pretty hotel just south of Swindon. We were greeted by the owner Mark who is passionate about Chiseldon. He has only taken over ownership from September and has very good staff. Our room was very pretty with double aspect with lovely views over the grounds and a huge bathroom. The Dining... More

I stayed here during a business trip, as the preferred hotel was full. Chiseldon House is old and is in need of updating, therefore the room rate is fairly expensive for this. Reception was friendly and accomodating. The room was plesant and kept clean. There were only layers of sheets, instead of a duvet provided. There was free wifi, which... More

Thank you for your review. Chiseldon House is old, circa 1827 for the original building, and since we aquired the hotel we have made some updates. I'm sorry that the TV was temperamental, now I know we are addressing the issue (and have checked the other TVs), but are also pleased that you appreciated one of the other upgrades we... More

Frustrated with a blockage on the M4, we left the motorway and desparate for food, we followed our satnav to here. Mark Pennells bought the hotel in September and by the standard of service we received we are sure he will make it a successful venue. No request was too much for the owner, whom we had come across at... More

An excellent hotel in all respects. Friendly,attentive staff, clean, fresh rooms, delicious food eaten with a pleasant background of unobtrusive music, good value. It has the charm of a fine old country residence,well cared for . No lift. More

We liked it so much we stayed an extra night! Old facility, up to date in the essentials. This means huge rooms and baths; just wonderful. New owners and very attentive staff. The grounds are out of another time and magnificent. We loved it. The food, a good, solid B+. Not much else around, of if walking as we were... More

We stayed at Chiseldon House Hotel whilst away on a business trip. On arrival we met the new owners who told us about their exciting plans for the hotel. However, with a comfortable room, complete with complimentary WIFI, great friendly staff and a Chef who produced a fantastic meal they do not need to do much to make this hotel... More

very tired and very disappointed with quality for the price. Friendly but added disappointment that (a post wedding) Sunday breakfast finished at 9.30 sharp! Needs a re-fit to get value for money at current prices More

The 'hotel' was last refurbished in 1975! The stained carpet, poor shower, old TV and dated decor ensured this was a disappointing experience. To my surprise, I was charged £85 for one night - B&B only! More

We first had our wedding here in 2007 and have been back every year to stay since (despite only living 20 miles away!). I'll get the only negative out the way first: probably a common feature in old buildings like this is the plumbing; it's hard to get a decent shower. But the rest of the room is fine, and... More
