We loved the charm of the property. The onsite restaurant was exceptional. Our Sunday dinner of pork, lamb, yorkshire pudding, potatoes and gravy were amazing. The chef works magic!

High expectations not met - both in terms of service given and in room amenities. Perhaps because I was so late to pick up room keys I was given the last room available? Wouldn’t say it was the cleanest or most organised room - where was the water?

The Hare and Hounds at Speen, Newbury

Enjoyed a wonderful overnight stay at The Hare and Hounds. Our room was The Fox, the room and furnishings were superb. The bar and restaurant are in the main building. Speen is an area just outside Newbury, with easy access to the town if required. Ample free car parking provided. Recommended as we found it to be of a very high standard.

Lovely place. Staff super friendly and hard working. It was an overnight stay as we were dining nearby. Room was a bit too warm and, even though we had a fan, it didn’t do much to keep us cool. Not much you can do about a heatwave though. Breakfast was lovely.

It was a last minute booking and I was blown away at the service, the quality of the rooms and the finishes. Loads of little details that you would not normally get in this price range. Then the evening meal which I have to say was one of the best three course meals I have ever tasted, every last little crumb was a sheer delight. Can’t wait to go again
The most delicious plate of food I have had for a very long time

Having stayedvher on numerous occasions , we were disappointed with the room, the room was not cleaned, no new towels given no fresh milk delivered as previously. The food was mediocre , the poor waitresses was left to deal with a full restaurant with no help. The caperts are badly stained

top stay and would certainly return

Service and approach of every staff member was excellent and to be commended. The food was varied and enjoyable with very good selection of wines and beer. It is on a main road but not noticeable with rooms spread out surrounding the main hotel - very well thought out
