Nestled in the village of Highclere, The Carnarvon Arms is a Grade II listed building preserving past features in the form of antique decorations and other works of art. A part of local history is revealed at the Highclere Castle, the set of the famous Downton Abbey, placed a 10-minute walk away from the hotel, while the landscaped surroundings tempt visitors to enjoy long hours of walking and hiking. The en suite rooms feature a traditional decor with dark wooden furnishings, beds with high headboards and chic curtains. The restaurant prepares a feast with locally sourced produce and serves up carefully crafted dishes in an artistic decor with paintings, sculptures and high ceilings with exposed beams. A wine list, featuring over 40 assortments from around the world, is on hand to complement every bite, while the well-stocked bar provides guests with malt whiskies and house beers.
