“This establishment, while centrally located near Newbury's train station and town center, presents a mixed experience. Its unique stable block rooms aim for a quaint ambiance, and the cocktail menu shows promise, but some reports suggest inconsistencies in room quality and service. For travelers prioritizing location and a lively pub atmosphere with expertly crafted drinks, this could be a viable option, but those seeking guaranteed tranquility may want to consider other accommodations.”
