Guest rooms in the inn are fitted with a kettle. With a private bathroom equipped with a shower and free toiletries, rooms at Sign of the Angel also offer free WiFi, while selected rooms come with a garden view. At the accommodation each room is fitted with bed linen and towels.

It was like stepping back in time. The inn dates from 1480 and retains its character. The village is wonderful and, as a heritage location , it remains as it was hundreds of years ago. It is the quintessential english village!

The inn is so charming with lovely gardens and a warm homey feel in our room as well as the restaurant/pub. Breakfast was delicious as were the meat pies and all the meals the chef prepared for us. Everyone, especially Carly, Brandon and Layla were happy to help us with anything we asked. Thank you all for a perfect first trip to the English countryside!

What a lovely place! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The people and the service are amazing, 10+ out of 10. Not only did they help get our luggage up the stairs, they found umbrellas for us to use on our outings and were there at every turn for anything we might need. The bar staff are super friendly and the cook was amazing. Breakfast is the best I've had, and there were several menu items to choose from. We stayed in the small apartment and really enjoyed having a separate area to watch TV and relax. All in all, we loved our stay here. We would like to return again some day and spend more time with these wonderful people. They truly are the best! ❤️

Located in Bradford on Avon, 10 km from University of Bath, The Castle Inn Bradford on Avon provides accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a terrace and a restaurant. Providing a bar, the property is located within 12 km of Bath Spa Train Station. The property is non-smoking and is situated 13 km from Royal Crescent.

There are wonderful people running The Castle Inn. They are so friendly, happy, and always smiling. We enjoyed dinner and a pint before heading up to our room. The room and bathroom are spacious, a good shower with plenty of hot water, the bed was comfortable, and the noise level was very low. We could hardly hear any noise from the street or the bar downstairs, which was full and open until 11 pm. Breakfast was good and plentiful. I couldn't finish everything on my plate. I especially enjoyed the coffee and our server, who didn't mind at all making a cappuccino on request. We had a great stay here.
