The Bradley Hare - Inn in Wiltshire
Church Street, Maiden Bradley, BA12 7HW, Wiltshire
England,
Royaume-Uni
It's oh so cosy walking in here, with antique furniture, interesting artwork and flickering candlelight, rugs on wooden or slate floors, wood-burners or open fires, a collection of pewter mugs and decanters – this has been a coaching inn since 1865, so you're breathing in history. Jaek Kelly is at the helm in the kitchen where the menu is shaped by the seasonal South West larder: local game, farm-reared meats, Cornish day boat fish and locally grown vegetables. Try their own Hare Ale with your food, or something else tasty from a local brewery.
Sleep it all off in fine bedrooms (some in the main building, others in the Coach House) with Siberian goose down duvets, rich fabrics, huge roll-top baths and a handy larder of treats. Spend balmy days in the sunny garden.
Wake to scrumptious breakfasts – try local chalk stream trout with perfectly cooked scrambled eggs on toast, or if you need it, help yourself to a bracing Bloody Mary.
