Stayed with a group for a walking weekend. The beer and wine were excellent, the food was very good and certainly gave a good range from sophisticated (excellent scallops) to seasonal rustic (roast partridge on a bed of creamy cabbage). The rooms were charming and the location excellent, but the main talking point among our group was the friendliness and... more

The Spread Eagle at Stourhead, over hyped, over priced and under whelming. We booked two nights at the Spread Eagle. Whilst stuck in traffic on the A3 we phoned to say we would be arriving latter than intended and would we be able have lunch if we arrived after 3 o'clock. Of course came the reply. We arrived and walked... more

We stayed here just for one night to have a break and visit Stour Head gardens. I was a little worried when I read the latest reveiw on Trip Advisor, but was pleasantly surprised from the moment we arrived. Our king size bedroom was warm and had everything we needed, the bathroom was a little tired and needs updating but... more

This was our favourite pub with rooms until December 2007 and the day of the ownership change. I can only comment on what we have found as regular visitors, but it is not at all encouraging. This used to be a wonderful gastro pub, well worthy of its rooms and excellent culinary standing. The quality of service, staff attitude and... more

We spent a night here as a treat while both children were away and really loved it. If only I'd realised that it was included in the Good Pub Guide's 2-nights-for-the-price-of-one offer we'd have stayed longer. The rooms are cosy and traditional, and as there are so few of them it feels more like a country house. The restaurant food... more

I have been a regular guest of the Spread Eagle Inn for at least seven years and each time I return it is always like going home. The staff are always friendly and helpful - nothing is ever too much trouble. The rooms are comfortable, the food is always excellent and no-one minds if I monopolise the scrabble board or... more

I found this Inn after hours of trawling the Internet for somewhere to stay and the effort was completely worth it. The Inn is part of the Stourhead Estate (I think) and lies in a very picturesque setting. When we arrived the staff were very polite and helpful especially as my girlfriend is allergic to feathers (we had to swap... more

The Spreadeagle is, most definitely, an inn. Those expecting five-star luxury hotel style accommodation will be disappointed - but those expecting friendly, welcoming service, good food and drink, and an unrivalled location should be delighted with this inn. I've marked it as above average rather than excellent simply because in the daytime it is filled with daytrippers to Stourhead Gardens,... more
