Helen Browning's Royal Oak, Fernham

We are a dining pub with rooms, in the middle of our own organic farm in the village of Bishopstone, on the edge of the Wiltshire Downs. Great service, informally, and a welcome as if it’s your own front room.

Our 12 luxurious rooms are a world away from the crowd, most with their own doors off a sunny, shared courtyard. Each uniquely stylish room is named and themed after a field on our farm here at Eastbrook, a perfect place to unwind in the beautiful Wiltshire countryside. Our rooms are set apart from the pub by about 70m, and delightfully peaceful. Sleep deeply in crisp cotton bedding. A hearty breakfast to set you up for your day, whatever it holds, and high speed wifi to keep you connected. Many of our rooms can be booked to accommodate families, check the descriptions for more details. We can also provide travel cots free of charge for the majority of rooms.

We have four dog-friendly rooms (charge applies).

You’ll eat and sleep well here. Generous organic food from our farm or our neighbours. A menu that changes most days and always with the seasons. All accompanied by excellent local ales, wines, gins and juices. Our family, friends, and farm workers have shared meals and beers here for 15 years and we only serve the food and drink that we enjoy ourselves.

Circular walks to The Ridgeway National Trail that runs across our (tenanted) 1,400 acre organic farm start from our front door. Our farm boundaries to the south give access to thousands more acres of open land, criss-crossed with paths and bridleways, and the glories of pre-historic Wiltshire and Oxfordshire lie all around us. A beautiful garden, full of wild flowers, to enjoy in the summer and a proper fire to come back to when the days drew in. Always magazines and books to borrow. Dogs and muddy boots welcome.

This is your place to enjoy. Just a medium stone’s throw from Swindon station, with easy access to London and The Cotswolds.
