It had everything we needed, it was lovely and clean and the staff were so friendly! Especially when we got locked out at 1am!
Rooms are located next to the beer garden so it was difficult to get an early night.

Revoir mon neveu et connaître sa femme et rencontrer mon petit neveu et l'émotion que ça m'a procuré.
Personnel très agréable et qui a accepté de faire une photo de nous tous ensemble.

So much better than the ‘chain hotels’ in Swindon. By far the best experience we have had locally. The staff were accommodating, the room was of a very good size and was great they accommodated our dog. The bathroom was the best I’ve had in a hotel, heated floor - say no more! The shower was huge, powerful and hot.
The mattress wasn’t too comfortable, but was adequate for a fairly decent nights sleep.

Well located with regards to the people I was visiting, and easy enough to get transport or even walk to the town. Next to a pub allowing for a relaxing evening, and the room is comfortable and inviting. Bathroom had underfloor heating which was a godsend with the temperature dropping below zero.
Other people walked right past my rooms window, so if I wanted to get changed, I either had to go to the bathroom, or close over the curtains and put the light on, so a net curtain would’ve been a nice addition.

Trouble with heating the room on a very cold night. I mentioned it at reception. The owner sorted it really efficiently. Another radiator was brought to my room. He checked the boiler and thermostat. I ended up with a cosy warm room. Can’t say fairer than that. I was impressed and I have rebooked for later in the week.

Nice and homely. Easy to find in good location
A couple of members of staff not very helpful on arrival but female member took over and explained where our room was etc

The food at evening meal and breakfast was exceptional
The reception is part of the bar but not manned so we queued here but the bar staff concentrated on bar sales
4.4
Cleanliness. Room was spacious and had everything you needed.
Parking. Perfect 👍🏻
The breakfast was big, would have liked more room between the tables, a bit intrusive on people’s conversations first thing in the morning lol.
But just personal preference.

We stopped here for one night on our way down to Devon, so just wanted a cheap and cheerful option and found this place for the night. We were so pleasantly surprised - firstly the bed was SO comfortable and the rooms were really nicely done and clean and modern, really good. It was just off a main road so really easy to access but was so quiet when trying to sleep.
It’s got dog friendly rooms and our dog had plenty of space and nice little grassy area nearby to have a potter about / toilet etc easily. The best part though was easily the price - excellent for what you actually get. Whilst you’re not going to be staying here for a holiday, it’s excellent for a stop over or a night if you’re nearby for a wedding etc. We found lots of places asked for £10-30 extra per night for a dog to stay which was incredibly frustrating (and ridiculous) especially when you just want a quick cheap stop over place without frills, so when we found this place that didn’t charge extra it was a no brainer and instantly drew us to it as a strong plus. We go every year to Devon from London and this was the first time we decided to stop off en route and having found the Sun Inn we’d definitely look to stop off each time we go now!
None, all good!

the rooms were a good size, dog friendly and equipped with a fridge too.
there was very loud music playing for the beer garden from early to late.
we were hoping to get a meal at the property, as it had a good menu. when we arrived we were told there was a reduced menu, as they had staff issues.
we booked a table for that evening anyway. when we arrived in the restaurant, there was no food available at all.

Comfortable bed and amazing powerful shower. Food in the pub was also great.
Nothing.

I didn't like the fact that I booked via booking.com and the Sun Inn insisted they had not recieved the money and I therefore had to pay a second time.
I then contacted them to say that my bank account have been debited by Booking.com on 11th May and by them on the 14th - I stayed on the 13th May. They have continued to insist that this is not possible, despite it clearly happening.
I am now trying to get my money back from booking.com, as the Sun Inn continue to insist they have only had the money once, from when I paid a second time

Very kind and courteous welcome by Sam. All the staff were friendly and were aware of the reason we were staying, being a family funeral. Very attentive and often asked if we were okay.
Would have liked more variety of “Zero” type of drink to buy other than coke. Just a flavoured water would be nice.
