The hype
Travelers adore the 'stepping back in time' feeling and the exceptional food, but often mention the quirks of a 500-year-old building.
Sign of the Angel
$160-230/ 晚
如果以下情況適用，請預訂 You want to sleep inside a Harry Potter film set with creaky floors, roaring fires, and zero modern distractions.
為什麼人們喜歡它
- Authentic 15th-century architecture (it was the 'Babberton Arms' in the Half-Blood Prince)
- The 'hidden' Room 4 accessed via a secret door in the lounge
- 2 AA Rosette dining with ingredients sourced from local West Country farms
快速概覽： A time-capsule inn where you trade reliable WiFi and straight walls for immense charm and a potential headache from the low beams.
由 @Milena 評論: Staying here felt like stepping into a history book. My room had the most incredible view of the village rooftops, and curling up by the fire after exploring Lacock was dreamy. If you love Harry Potter or just need a quiet escape, this place is absolute perfection.
住過這裡的客人說
Reality check
The 'cosy' atmosphere means squeaky floorboards that broadcast your neighbors' movements, and the 'no crumbs on the sofa' rule in the garden can feel a bit strict.
- You are a Harry Potter or Downton Abbey superfan
- You prefer the sound of a crackling fire to a television
- You want a romantic, ghost-story atmosphere
清潔與維護
9.2
- Housekeeping: Daily and thorough; guests consistently praise the tidy rooms despite the age.
- Bathroom hygiene: Surprisingly modern and spotless bathrooms given the 15th-century context.
- Maintenance: Old buildings have quirks (peeling paint or creaks), but it's kept in 'shabby chic' rather than 'shabby' condition.
- Linens & towels: High-quality, crisp white linens that contrast well with the dark wood.
- Odors & scents: Woodsmoke and old timber; a distinct but generally pleasant 'historic' smell.

常見問題與隱藏小貼士
預訂前您真正想知道的一切。
Is there really no parking?
Correct. You drop bags at the door if you're quick, then park in the Lacock village public lot (free) or find a street spot.
Do the rooms have TVs?
No. The owners believe they spoil the medieval atmosphere. There is a radio and a shared lounge, but no screens in bedrooms.
Is it actually haunted?
Rumor has it a friendly elderly lady ghost sits in the lounge or visits bedrooms. Staff and guests have reported sightings for years.
Can I bring my dog?
Yes, dogs are welcome for a £15 nightly fee, but they must be pre-booked.
Is breakfast included?
Only if you book direct. If you booked via Booking.com or Expedia, expect to pay extra.
How low are the ceilings?
Low. Doorways can be under 6 feet. If you are tall, you will be ducking constantly.
