Fairlawn House

The staff were very friendly at this hotel and the breakfast was excellent. We would highly recommend it if you are in the area.

In brief, we were disappointed of our stay in this house which we expected (from other advises and their web site) to be a warm B&B . In fact, all seems managed by a PC (code for the keys, instruction for car park by Whats App and bill received by mail,...). Poor breakfast. Otherwise, lovely and quiet house.

I was lucky enough to win a two night stay here which was amazing but despite that I will always give an honest review. I will 100% recommend this place for anyone staying in the area. Less than 10 mins to Stonehenge, 20 mins from Salisbury town and 40 mins from Longleat safari park and it is situated in the cutest little village. We got the warmest welcome when we arrived and were given room 15 which was right at the top of the building. It had a huge comfy bed with lovely pillows and duvet, a table and chairs, plenty of storage, tv and tea and coffee making facilities. It was clean and had everything we needed including lovely extras such as an air con unit. My 6ft fiance had to duck under the door frames and some beams but is expected in an older house. Was nice to have a bath and shower options and both were lovely and warm. My fiance couldn't fit in the shower due to being 6ft again but he prefers a bath anyway. We slept like babies. We went downstairs to the cellar for a lovely breakfast. Lovely warm greeting, tea and coffee available long with a choice of juice, oats, fruit, yoghurts, honey, Nutella, bread for toast, warm crossaints and pain au chocolates and also the choice of cooked breakfast. First morning I had smash avo and scrambled eggs on toast and the second I had a mini fry up both were cooked beautifully! The only thing It was missing was sausages!. They offer hen do packages where you can stay there and also use the cellar as a party/games room which would be super cute for a more chilled out hen party. We visited piazza Italian whilst we were there which is a short walk. They do stunning food along with a cute little bakery called Reeve's which did the most amazing selection of sandwiches and cakes and lovely coffee. If we ever need to stay in Wiltshire again we will definitely be staying here! Thankyou for a lovely stay!

An incredible place to stay in Amesbury and a perfect base to see so many places both interesting and historical in the area. The rooms are so lovely, large and comfortable. The hosting and staff are delightful. The food was gorgeous. It really does feel like a home away from home and I need to go back again soon as there are so many things to see and discover in the area.

Approaching a pretty Georgian house, you imagine a warm welcome and a friendly chat, but check-in and out are digital and no-one is there. I was astonished to return to the room at the end of the day to find that it had not been cleaned and the bed had not been made. There was someone around the next morning, who said they don't go into bedrooms without permission(!) and if I wanted it cleaned I shoud have put the other side of the do not disturb sign outside - there was nothing to say this was compulsory. The small double room was adequate for one, but there is very little storage space and it would be cramped for two. The kettle didn't switch itself off and the lid kept popping open as it boiled which is a hazard. Despite my having checked out online and stated that I would be leaving at 10.30, someone came into the room at 10.00.

Pros: Nice building and comfy bed Cons: Wallpaper peeling, lack of parking (told to park in doctors surgery up the road and when we went back to our car in the morning there was a very curt note telling us not to park there), no cooked breakfast (despite being told cooked items were available), broken toilet seat, only 1 free socket at floor level, no bedside cabinets, poor coffee and tea selection (most hotels charging £170 a night have at least a coffee pod machine or put 2 x packets of biscuits or 2 x hot chocolate sachets in the room), check in is a very convoluted and complicated process, no Netflix despite tv saying there was, very poor WiFi, shower slippery and needed a bath mat or anti slip stickers in it...I think that's it!
