The White Horse at Woolstone

A beautiful and welcoming hotel. The main building with all its historic charm retained and the bedrooms main and well equipped . There was a wide choice of ales and our dinner was delicious. Breakfast featured local ingredients and was very tasty. We were very pleased with our choice of stay and will return when we can

My husband and I (and the dog!) had the most wonderful mini break at this fantastic find. Located in amongst the most picturesque village and surrounding countryside, the drive to find it was as much an experience as the stay itself!||The room was perfect, leading straight out on the ground floor for our elderly dogs night time pee. Cosy and stylish and I loved the mattress!||The food at the pub was delicious with a great wine list, we ate there both nights of our stay, plus two freshly cooked breakfasts with top quality produce.||John and Michelle were fabulous hosts, and the dog friendly pub and accommodation the perfect antidote to London life. For anyone looking to just enjoy a quiet, peaceful break, with miles and miles of glorious countryside and nature, we highly recommend the White Horse. I have no doubt we'll be back.

The White Horse at Woolstone is nestled in the picturesque village of Woolstone, the pub exudes a charming, timeless quality, offering a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The surrounding countryside is breathtaking, creating a serene and tranquil backdrop that enhances the entire dining experience. We had fish and chips! The fish was cooked to perfection, flaky and succulent, encased in a light and crispy batter. This was, without a doubt, some of the very best fish and chips I've ever had the pleasure of tasting. Five stars simply don't do it justice!

We stayed for 2 nights while walking the Ridgeway Trail.||The hosts were friendly & professional. The room was comfortable with good quality tea, coffee, etc provisions.||The breakfasts were excellent; high quality ingredients cooked well and a good choice/flexibility; just the thing to set us up for a day on the trail.||The evening meals were very good too; well above traditional notions of 'pub grub'.||Being a pub there was a good choice of beers/wines/spirits, including a good range of Arkells Ales on tap.||Would definitely stay again if in the area.

Had a fantastic Sunday lunch here! The food was absolutely delicious & perfectly cooked, full of flavour, and came out really quickly, which was a great bonus. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home. We brought our dog along, and they were incredibly accommodating and kind to her too. Such a lovely atmosphere, great service, and amazing food—can’t wait to come back!

Walked in completely blanked by bar staff. No hello, no be with you in a minute, just went about their business. Headed straight back out again - wouldn't waste a penny of my cash here. Plenty of other places to go in the area. Interestingly, I see this has happened to others. Clearly the pub management are ok with the policy of treating potential customers as unwelcome guests. If you like to spend a pleasant afternoon somewhere - don't go here !

Nice little pub. Food service isn't all day. Lunch finishes at 2.15. Then back open at 6pm. I got to the pub after my hike around 2.10 and they were still welcoming to order food etc didn't rush me. Food was nice and good coffee! Cute little kids menu too for the kiddies

We arrived Friday afternoon to find the Inn closed and we thought what have we done??? BUT they left us a key to our room and everything got better and better. The real star Richard chef, been there years and years .. and cooked the best breakfast !!! And al the staff were friendly amd Welcoming... Thank you and we so enjoyed the area and our visit to Nicky Henderson's !!!

We'd spent the day driving (on the wrong side of the road) and by the time we arrived at our B&B, there really wasn't much of a choice of food within walking distance. So I used Yelp to see what choices were within a short drive. I called White Horse to see if they could take us for dinner, and they suggested not waiting much longer as their kitchen closed at 9 (it was already 8.) I set the GPS and off we drove! If you've driven in rural UK, then you know that the roads are narrow and unlit. In the middle of nowhere, the GPS announced that we had arrived. So, I called again, described where we were as best as I could, and was advised to "keep going." About 5 minutes later, we arrived. We each ordered a Greek Salad. Often, the amount of cheese is pretty limited, especially on less expensive salads. Not so at the White Horse. The salads were absolutely loaded with delicious feta cheese, along with yummy cucumbers and tomatoes. Unfortunately, I can't remember the rest of the food we ordered, but it was all good. Had it been a bit warmer, we could have enjoyed our dinner in a lovely outdoor garden area.

this place feels very authentic, in a way that i enjoyed a lot. it's a very old building with a low ceiling, open fire. the food was excellent, i had a steak and a salad, both of which i enjoyed a lot. prices were fair (and certainly below london standards). would definitely go here again, if the occasion arose.
