Our most loved pubs with rooms in Wiltshire

From historic coaching inns to smart village pubs, these are some of the Wiltshire stays that stand out. 

 

Why stay in a Sawday’s pubs with rooms?

✓ Historic places with a story. Wiltshire is full of old coaching routes, villages and historic buildings, and many of our pubs have their own long connection with the communities around them. 

✓ Food rooted in the countryside. The best pubs make use of the county’s farms, game, seasonal produce and local drinks, turning dinner into part of the experience rather than simply somewhere to eat. 

✓ A slower way to travel. Stay somewhere with a good pub downstairs and you can spend less time driving and more time walking, eating, exploring and simply enjoying the place.

In Wiltshire, we’re looking for places where history, hospitality, food and comfort come together – whether that’s a beautifully restored coaching inn, a family-run village pub or a country retreat where the bedrooms are every bit as appealing as the bar downstairs.
