An old English country inn, set in a charming country village, nestling in the Marlborough downs, just 10 minutes from M4 J15 Marlborough & Swindon

Overlooking the village Square, opposite the duck pond, the Crown at Aldbourne is first recorded as early as the 16th century, although the present building is thought to be Georgian. Local historians suppose that that the Crown was once a small coaching inn on the turnpike road from Cirencester to Hungerford.

Today, our accent is on excellent quality, freshly prepared food and attentive service with simple, country chic style accommodation. Our bedrooms have en suite bathrooms with showers, colour TVs  and, of course, customary English tea/coffee trays.   Chef produces freshly prepared food, with daily specials, served in the relaxed atmosphere of our candlelit  restaurant (no smoking), with fine wines and ales available to accompany your meals.

Our traditional bar with a welcoming blaze in its huge inglenook fireplace has a friendly and sociable atmosphere and is also a favoured corner for dining.

The beautiful village environs and the superb adjoining countryside provides great opportunities for reviving relaxation together with a welcome hint of pastoral tranquillity. Aldbourne has excellent road and rail access to the wealth of regional tourist sites
