About The Royal Oak - B&B
Travellers wanting a quiet base for exploring the Wiltshire countryside will find The Royal Oak - B&B a straightforward, comfortable option. Located on Forest Road in Marlborough, it suits those visiting Avebury or walking stretches of the Kennet & Avon Canal, as well as anyone passing through who wants an easy overnight stop with free on-site parking.
There are six rooms in total, kept simple rather than lavish, with breakfast included to set guests up for a day out. A restaurant and bar on site mean there's no need to head out again in the evening, and the garden offers a spot to sit outside when the weather allows. The property also has meeting rooms and hosts weddings, so it caters to small gatherings as well as individual stays, and reception is staffed around the clock for flexible arrivals.
Pets are welcome, which makes it a practical choice for those touring the area with a dog in tow. Free WiFi is available throughout for anyone needing to stay connected, and the location gives good access to the wider Marlborough countryside without being in the thick of it.
