The shared bathroom had broken and dirty toilet seat, the music in the bar each night was loud and raucous. Couldn't get any sleep. Left before the end of planned stay - Don't stay there! ##### Steven Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Brian Sep 29, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### The Plough Inn The Plough Inn was a fairly basic hotel. One important point, the bed, once my head hit the pillow I was out like a light. The atmosphere in the bar was wonderful, the locals were amazingly freindly and I was drinking and talking with them all night. ##### Brian Stayed 1 night in Sep 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Melanie May 18, 2022 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Disappointing and basic Disappointing, no free car park as advertised. Room had a wonky floor although the twin bed was comfortable. Right by a busy main road so expect traffic noise. Pub does not service food but great bistro options 5-10 mins walk into Highworth. Biggest frustration was the shower did not work, the bath did not have hot water abs so I had to wash my hair under the cold tap in the bath. Would definitely not return ##### Melanie Stayed 1 night in May 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Stephen Feb 23, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Adequate Adequate bed for the night, rooms right on busy road so none to quiet. ##### Stephen Stayed 1 night in Feb 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Rob Feb 15, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### 👍 Nice and friendly place to stay ##### Rob Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Richard Jul 30, 2019 Liked: Staff & service #### Basic but comfortable Basic but great value, room was a good size, shared bathrooms looked a little tired ##### Richard Stayed 1 night in Jul 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Jul 28, 2019 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Stay somewhere else The Plough is a lovely pub run by lovely friendly people, however as a hotel goes my room was the mostcheerless place I have ever stayed. No carpet, no bedside light, comfy enough bed but only about 1ft off the ground so not easy to get in or out. 1 socket hanging out the wall, the other broken with bare wires visible. Tv and kettle run off a junction board. Shared bathroom that always seemed occupied and looked none too clean. No food available at pub. Bit of a walk too anywhere in town. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2019 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Jul 28, 2019 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff were helpful. We were allowed into the pub before the check in time of 6pm. It is a budget hotel so I was not expecting luxury, but I was expecting cleanliness. The shared bathroom was filthy, dirty skirting boards, cobwebs over the window, dirty grout round the bath. Our room had dust on the window ledge and around the skirting and the kettle was dusty, I cleaned it before I used it. It is not clear either that all rooms face an increadably busy road and we had lorries passing 24/7 all night less than 5 feet from our bedroom window. The carpet on the landing was stained and the whole place needs a coat of paint. Not a memorable experience. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Katie Jul 23, 2019 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Just ok Place ok, a bit shabby. No bedside light and lots of extension leads. ##### Katie Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jul 20, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Warra treat!

Serviceable but by no means impressive. The pub is nice but no food and a good walk to the town. The rooms and bathrooms are useable but run down it’s ok for the price and good enough as an overnight for a working bloke. ##### jonathan Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Mar 14, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Tidy room with the expected facilities. No breakfast or bar food available. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Mar 10, 2019 Liked: Staff & service The accommodation was pretty basic, but was cheap and in a good location. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Feb 22, 2019 Liked: Staff & service Rustic bar /lounge with tv sports But bunkhouse bedroom with coils of bad wiring in the corner. Shared bathroom in need of updating. The low tariff makes it hard to moan about - get what you pay for, it’s safe and comfortable ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Feb 21, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Nice room but kept awake buy street light shining in room, shower was not very powerful. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2019 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Dec 23, 2018 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Nice owners, poor facilities and lack of cleaning and maintenance. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Denise Dec 3, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort It was fine just me and the dog for a stop over ##### Denise Stayed 1 night in Dec 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Nov 11, 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Not a place to stay Not good Bed squeaked with every little movement. Cold ,and wind let in wind Shared bathroom ok but other stayers took too long in bathroom Other than that wouldn't stay again would rather travel home ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Peter Oct 22, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice Pub! Great, with a friendly pub as part of the building. Some noise from other room guests. ##### Peter Stayed 1 night in Sep 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### RP, Bristol Oct 13, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely old pub My son and I were made very welcome at the Plough. Everything was clean, comfortable and homely - all the essentials thought of. Everyone we met there was friendly and we instantly felt at home. The couple of things I asked for (a bedside lamp, and help with getting the TV working) were seen to readily and with no fuss. Breakfast is not available every day but there are plenty of alternatives in Highworth so that was not a problem. We were given a key to the back door so could come and go as we needed to. Would happily stay again. Things to be aware of: soft mattresses (very comfortable but not for everyone); rooms face onto the main road, which is busy at rush hour, but not a problem if you close the window. ##### RP Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### tony Oct 10, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### on food they could have offered breakfast ##### tony Stayed 1 night in Oct 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Martin Sep 10, 2018 This was ideal for me as I was alone and visiting family in the area so wasnt looking for anything special as I was mostly out. Hotel room met my needs for the two night stay. Recommended for individual stays. ##### Martin Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Karen Sep 3, 2018 #### Overnight stay Ideal for an overnight stay not ideal with a dog as room but small but clean and tidy ##### Karen Stayed 1 night in Sep 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Geoff Aug 30, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Good place for a post-event stop-over No breakfast, but lean room. Not small, adequate sized twin bedded room. Bathroom across corridor. Good price for a place to kip whilst 'on the road' ##### Geoff Stayed 1 night in Aug 2018 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Majestic Colonial Punta Cana - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Majestic-Colonial-Punta-Cana-All-Inclusive.h1265372.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn London-Gatwick Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Horley-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-London-Gatwick-Airport.h16918.Hotel-Information) > > [Barceló Gran Faro Los Cabos - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-Barcelo-Gran-Faro-Los-Cabos-All-Inclusive.h851454.Hotel-Information) > > [Howard Johnson Plaza by Wyndham by the Falls Niagara Falls](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-Howard-Johnson-Plaza-By-Wyndham-By-The-Falls-Niagara-Falls.h27015.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakes Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Windermere-Hotels-Lakes-Hotel-And-Spa.h901040.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Hull Marina by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Hull-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Hull-Marina.h10609.Hotel-Information) > > [The Greenway Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Greenway-Hotel-Spa.h520203.Hotel-Information) > > [Resorts Collingwood](https://www.expedia.ca/Collingwood-Resort-Hotels.d11938-aaResortHotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Pine Lake Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Carnforth-Hotels-Pine-Lake-Resort.h1928661.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Downtown Las Vegas](https://www.expedia.ca/Downtown-Las-Vegas-Las-Vegas-Hotels.0-n800047-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Belfry](https://www.expedia.ca/Birmingham-Hotels-The-Belfry.h3976.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Heathrow Windsor](https://www.expedia.ca/Slough-Hotels-Heathrow-Windsor-Marriott-Hotel.h3830.Hotel-Information) > > [Iberostar Selection Bávaro Suites - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Iberostar-Selection-Bavaro-Suites-All-Inclusive.h559708.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Whitby](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitby-Hotels-The-Royal-Hotel.h57917040.Hotel-Information) > > [Cave Hotel & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Faversham-Hotels-Cave-Hotel-Golf-Resort.h33410673.Hotel-Information) > > [Burgh Island Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kingsbridge-Hotels-Burgh-Island-Hotel.h34611055.Hotel-Information) > > [Millcroft](https://www.expedia.ca/Penrith-Hotels-Millcroft.h26994538.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Hampshire](https://www.expedia.ca/Hook-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Hampshire.h986107.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Hotel Manchester City Centre, A Verified Net Zero Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Manchester-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Manchester-City-Centre.h2601411.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxor Hotel and Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas-Hotels-Luxor-Hotel-And-Casino.h15237.Hotel-Information) > > [The Porch House](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Porch-House.h4595892.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Niagara Falls](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-0-d6023515-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Mississauga](https://www.expedia.ca/Mississauga-Hotels.d7954.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > [flights from region of waterloo intl airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/ykf/flights-from-region-of-waterloo-intl-airport) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to New York (JFK)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/jfk/montreal-to-new-york) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Abbotsford (YXX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/yxx/edmonton-to-abbotsford) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Fort McMurray (YMM)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/ymm/edmonton-to-fort-mcmurray) ### Activities > [Things to do in Scottsdale](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Scottsdale.d9829.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Canada Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Canada.d3000438405.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Ottawa Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Ottawa.d178296.Destination-Travel-Guides)
