The Plume of Feathers

Comfortable stay with good food. Friendly hosts

Room was very warm with little ventilation

Perfect choice for our visit to RAF Odiham for families day. As we live 3.5hrs away we needed somewhere close to the base we could stay the night before. This was ideal. Housed in converted stables, as you open the door (No.1), there are a few steps up to the sleeping area, with a small double bed (which was very comfortable), a small consul table with tea, coffee and kettle (the biscuits were a nice touch) and a small unit for hanging coats, clothes and storing shoes/bags. At the back is a small shower room with sink and toilet, towels and toiletries provided. There is a small skylight above the bed, which you can open using the long handle provided. Plenty of plug sockets for charging phones etc. There is WiFi, though a little unstable in the rooms, it worked much better in the pub. All in all, compact but so very comfortable. It's also very quiet, even with a busy pub and other guests staying. There is a large car park to the rear of the pub. The pub itself is a very traditional village pub, and for a Thursday night, it was busy but not rammed. There is also a lovely covered outside area with halogen heaters, which we sat in after our meal. Food is available but be warned, the website is not up to date and they have themed nights, Thursdays is Mexican. We thoroughly enjoyed the homemade fajitas, chilli and desserts. A full English breakfast (served between 7.30-9am, charges apply) can be ordered for the next morning, sadly we had to be on base by 7am, so missed out. Luckily Farnham is about 15mins away, we popped to Sainsbury before dinner and bought some porridge pots and bananas for our breakfast. RAF Odiham was a 10/15 minute drive away, so it made for an excellent overnight stop.

As the weather was very hot, the room got very hot too. Even with the skylight open. Maybe a small fan could be provided.

Really lovely little village pub. Nice atmosphere and the staff very friendly and helpful. The converted stable room although small had everything we needed to ensure a comfortable stay. Very tasty cooked breakfast.

Nothing

Perfect place to stay, as a good centre for exploring. The rooms were very clean, and had everything needed for a few days away. Meals at the Pub/Hotel were varied and delicious and reasonably priced. A little awkward getting in and out of the bed as it was against a wall on one side, but overall it was manageable.

Not a lot!

Rooms very small without window

Nothing to like particularly, certainly not unique. Lack of information on meal times so were disappointed when required. Lack of ventilation made for uncomfortable nights, it what seem like a garden shed.
