Good value accommodation for overnight work stay
The room was clean, quiet and comfortable with air conditioning and a good shower. The room was good value for money. The cooked breakfast was ok but in my opinion not worth the £15 charge and the sausage tasted a bit odd.

We stayed at the Furze Bush Inn to be close to our tour at Highclere Castle. The place is an authentic English County Inn, surrounded by greenery and space. There is a great pub in the front and a great restaurant for dinner. The staff is completely accommodating It’s a beautiful old inn and a charming experience!
