Dog and Partridge Inn

Room was ok, bed was huge Tea and coffee provided, no internet I was aware of

Rooms could be more sound proof especially with the noise from the room next door - let me explain further I recently stayed in Room 8 at The Dog and Partridge in Calne, and I feel morally obliged to leave this review for the benefit of future guests. First, the good stuff: Lovely pub, friendly atmosphere, comfortable room, decent bed. So Zero complaints there. However… my stay came to an abrupt end at 3:30am, when I was forced to evacuate like a man escaping a small but passionate earthquake. The issue was Room 7. At some point in the early hours, the couple next door launched into what can only be described as the loudest, most committed act of lovemaking ever performed indoors. The walls vibrated with repeated cries of “oh God”, enthusiastic “ooh yeah THAT’S the spot”, and frequent, emotionally charged demands of “GIVE IT TO ME”. This was not intimacy. This was performance art. To add a percussive element, the headboard began repeatedly slamming against the wall with such force that I briefly considered whether I should: • applaud • shout “bravo” • ask for a programme • or call reception to see if refreshments were being served for the audience After what felt like the extended director’s cut with bonus scenes, I accepted defeat, packed my bags, and fled Calne at 3:30am. No real complaints. Just worth noting that Room 7 has phenomenal acoustics and Room 8 offers front-row seats. Light sleepers may wish to bring earplugs… or noise-cancelling headphones… or a will to live. Would I stay again? Yes. Would I choose Room 8? Only if I’m in the mood for live entertainment. Unforgettable stay. Literally

Comfortable bed

Breakfast - poor selection .. no cereal, no juices,

Great location and plenty of parking.

Bathroom smelt musty and wasn’t very clean. Crack in sink, hole in floor by toilet and if had heels on would go through. Breakfast bacon looked undercooked, sausages cheap and just in general the whole thing looked unappealing.

The bathroom. Hole in the floor in front of the loo wasn't what i expected to have to contend with when paying a visit.

Convenient location for accessing Bath during Xmas Market time. Room was clean and beds were very comfortable.

No breakfast (although I was sent an email prior to our stay informing me of this and was due to staffing issues) we did manage to find a nice cafe in Calne town centre for breakfast instead. Had to be very careful where you stood in the en-suite as the floor around toilet had sunk and was unstable (I’d imagine due to some form of previous water damage) needs addressing asap.
