Rivers Edge At The Legacy Rose And Crown

Overall terrible experience in a very dated, damp and creepy hotel. We stayed at the Rose Crown for business and thankfully only 1 night. Most of our party had to change rooms as they were either damp and musty or just a bit creepy and when my colleague asked for an alternative room the guy on reception said ‘do you want Creepy or Cramped?’. I have to say most of the staff were friendly and polite but perhaps a more experienced member of staff should be on reception. Plus the breakfast was fairly decent although the orange juice they served up was more of a strange children’s squash rather than a juice, so the Legacy hotel group is definitely cutting corners everywhere! The only saving grace was the very nicely laundered linen on the beds and the big towelling robe but sadly my room didn’t feel that clean and has black mould around the inner window of the bathroom . Other than that I would NOT recommend anyone stay at here it’s truly awful and you’re better off at the Premier Inn down the road.

Had a really lovely experience at this venue on a Saturday afternoon. We enjoyed a trip down the river punting (third party Salisbury punting excellent) and then the restaurant made us a mixture of picnic baskets and afternoon teas outside in the sunshine. I was especially impressed with the picnic baskets. £15 per person, for a huge selection of items (we paid for 3 picnics and had many more than 1 item pp). Impressively everything was home made and utterly delicious sausage rolls, quiche, scotch eggs, cheese and biscuits, salad, coleslaw, drum sticks and the most delicious roast beef and horseradish sandwiches I've ever had. There was more than enough per person. The avo tea was £15 per head, reasonable quantity for the price. (Actually far better than being forced to pay £30pp and having more than you could ever eat). The cakes were delicious, simple lemon cake was the best I've ever tasted. Good service. Really pretty location. We had a really lovely afternoon in the sun. Thank you. Highly recommended.

I would highly recommend this beautiful hotel in a beautiful village. The staff where very warm welcoming. I asked if a hostess Posey could be put into my sisters room as a gift from her nephew. Well they where stunning the room was jaw droppingly lovely. Thank you so so much to Hannah x. I would also recommend booking punting because they pick you up on the river than runs past there gardens, which has steps especially to step into the boat! Loved this little gem cant wait to visit again.

Delicious meal with good friendly service (not cheap at £15 for a roast, but fortunately Grandad picked up the tab)!

Had afternoon tea here with friends on Sunday. This is a beautiful hotel in a beautiful location with great views of the river. The food was excellent especially the most fabulous festive cheesecake ever and the service was just as good. The receptionist was really friendly and chatty and the restaurant service was excellent. This was our second visit and we are already planning our next one. We may even stay over next time.
