Lovely staff, magical atmosphere, gorgeous scents around the rooms above the restaurant, pastries made on site and you can definitely taste and appreciate it, fire places are on, not too hot but not too cold (late January), furry friends allowed, beautiful booze and draft beer selection. Traditional yet unique dinner and puddings, satisfying breakfast. Fantastic 3 nights stay!

Too bad I can only give five stars. This place is excellent. Fabulous ambience inside and out, and the restaurant has tons of gluten-free options. The people are welcoming, friendly and delightful. Would absolutely go again. Highly recommend.

What a gorgeous Inn. The rooms are all named after pears, really quaint and clean. The bar area is cozy and the restaurant is fantastic. All the staff were friendly and very helpful. Loved it.

Beware hidden charges on your stay here, lost key, it happens and happy to pay for a replacement. But £100 is taking the mickey.

The food is always excellent. I’ve never ever had a bit experience here. It’s my favourite place to take family and friends for lunch. It’s so cosy and beautifully curated throughout every season. I’ve not stayed in the rooms before but can only imagine they are as lovely as the restaurant. Staff are always so genuinely friendly and helpful too.

The Pear tree is a fantastic pub with great food as always & the service is excellent. It costs a little more than average but you certainly get what you pay for. Would highly recommend

A beautifully decorated pub set in picturesque maintained gardens. Large level car park suitable for wheelchairs and electric charging points for cars. The snug is comfortable and sizeable with log fire. The food is delicious and prepared superbly, with a fast service. Lovely to sit in the gardens in fine weather. The restaurant is traditionally furnished and comfortable. In all the best a pub has to offer in all areas.

Absolutely love visiting the Pear Inn. My mother takes occasional respite care at a local care home in Melksham. The Pear Tree is perfectly situated and we can’t recommend it highly enough. In fact, I’m writing this review as we enjoy Sunday lunch in the pub for the umpteenth time. It’s our go-to when mum is in Melksham.
The pub itself has a gorgeous atmosphere. It’s big but cosy and intimate. Wonderful service, delicious food and always buzzy and cheery. Today my mother had her regular favourite, fish and chips and its was so fresh and delicious. I enjoyed the leg of lamb (one of the Sunday roasts) which was fabulous. Accompanied by a lovely selection of veg and the tastiest roast potatoes ever.
We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend.

Just a wonderful experience. Best food in England so far for us. The staff was so kind and helpful. The grounds are serene and peaceful. Good energy, thoughtful hotel. Thank you! Highly recommend.

Review based on bar lunch for three of us. Not as good as it used to be. In the old days, it really did work seasonally with good ingredients. Our lunch this time was reheated commercially bought pre-made food. Not worth it.
It used to be in the Michelin Red Book, we noticed it no longer is.
The pub is still really nice though, and highly recommended.

Mixed bag of responses to the categories.
Our room was in need of some tender care and maintenance and for that reason only we could not give it 5*. I trust that the management will take on board our comments and bring it up to the standards expected.
On the positive side, the breakfasts were excellent, ALL the staff are friendly even when the pressure is on and the bar/restaurant areas are well laid out and comfortable. Excellent large car park but the charging points were out of action during our visit due to impact damage.
Large proportion of foreign visitors which is always good and we would stay again.

Very nice Sunday lunch in good location. Waitress was a little loud and lacked warmth and personality. However we would return.

Very good imaginative food weekdays, but not as good for Sunday lunch - impressive service front of house - see food comment

Overly impressed at every level -
Taste, quantity, quality; and then there’s the interior decor and the garden all very good. So it’s hard to say how this place can be improved. However, if I had to say something, it would have been good to get less professionalism from the staff in exchange for a smile or two, and I feel a little sore at being charged £7.50 for 4 slices of bland white bread.
But, to repeat, when you add everything together I will be heading there again!

Very nice food, which, even though we were given a warning for a wait for our food, I was pleasantly surprised it wasn't as long as feared and worth the wait. There wasn't anything uniquely different to the meal or experience, but it was a robust meal and would certainly go again to challenge the consistency and whether speed is typically like this or not. For me, if you're having to wait it's either lack of efficiency or because it's popular, and I would certainly ascertain it was the latter due to the experience we had. Look forward to going again, trying more courses and seeing if it can get a 5 star from me in the future. I had the pulled pork burger, and I'd recommend it!

Camere molto spaziose, posizione super tranquilla immersa nella campagna inglese. A pochi minuti da Lacock. Lo staff è stato davvero super gentile e disponibile. Il cibo della cena e anche quello della colazione era buonissimo e freschissimo! Super contenti! Andateci per vivere una vera esperienza British :)

Felt like I am living in with my in-laws. Hotel / restaurant staff didn’t miss any opportunity to pass on sarcastic remark. For instance:
1. Remember to return your keys as we many people ran away with it.
2. We can provide you with cot-bed but sorry we don’t provide any mattress. Further, “I have two kids and I like to cuddle and sleep”
I also think that the bed was not king sized as advertised.

We booked 6 rooms at the Pear Tree for our bridal party along with our pre-wedding evening meal for 15 guests this August.
We've been going to the Pear Tree for dinner for a number of years and knew they'd be a great venue for our pre-wedding meal. The staff were wonderful as ever and the food was excellent.
Rooms were also fantastic and all our guests were hugely complimentary of their 2 night stays.
