Stayed here again end of August 2024 with my wife. Lovely charming and welcoming atmosphere.
I stayed here for 3 weeks in the late 90s whilst on business and was looked after really well and it’s just as welcoming and charming today. Lovely friendly staff that can’t do enough for you.
Used to have car parking in the driveway but that’s all been converted now to a great alleyway with lovely restaurant areas. Car parking not a problem as there is a long stay literally 5 mins walk away
Thoroughly recommended

My mum who is in her 70s and has some mobility issues has stayed at The Pelican for the last two years, visiting us from Yorkshire. The room she stayed in was comfortable, clean and very accessible with her walker. The owners and staff are all friendly and accommodating, topping up tea and coffee supplies regularly and just happy to have a chat! The location is superb for accessing the market place and museum and a short walk from the main shopping area in Devizes.

Great compact apartment with excellent facilities and great location for access to town centre. Fitted out to a high standard with some very nice touches in the interior design of the main room and bedroom.

Only minor issue was that the chef cooking breakfast suggested we all order the same thing- only real choice being full english breakfast- as she was on her own the next morning in the kitchen. No cereal/fruit/nuts on the brek menu.
Heritage Bed and Breakfast is set in Calne and features a courtyard garden and a shared lounge. Free WiFi is available.

The property is spotlessly clean and very well presented. Ellie is just a excellent host. The homemade bread with breakfast was a lovely extra. The room was spacious and the bed very comfortable. Will defiantly recommend

Quirky little shops and little alleyways to explore.
The canals are a nice place to walk and everything is in walking distance.
Plenty of parking available.

Stopped a couple of days in Devizes on our way to Wales. Great market town with lots of food and water holes. The White Bear is a buzzing little pub, with friendly customers and attentive hosts. Will return again, when hopefully the weather is nicer to us!

Lovely Georgian town with many original buildings.
Lovely Georgian town with many original buildings. The Caen Locks of historic interest and good to walk alongside. A good cafe at the top of the locks.
We ate at an Indian Restaurant opposite the Castle Hotel; excellent food.

I like Wadworth beer and as the brewery is here there was plenty of opportunity to go beer drinking. All the pubs we tried were interesting and friendly and the beer was well kept in all of them.
We had a good walk along the canal to see the long flight of locks and there were interesting shops in the town. We liked the tea shop in the Ginnal and the bakery for sourdough bread. Everyone we met was friendly.

Devizes looks a little bit rundown.
Devizes looks a little bit rundown. Beautiful buildings are not restored and kept at their best which is a great pity. One popular eating place had filthy windows with bird excrement on them which reflects a lack of pride and cleanliness of the people who own or rent out these buildings. A lot more money needs to be invested in Devizes if it is to attract people. It would be a shame to let this historic town go to complete ruin. People should take pride in their heritage and at the very least clean their shop front, shop windows and paint the façades.
However, Devizes is better than Crewkerne and Chard.

Devizes is far too reticent about its charms.
Devizes is far too reticent about its charms. It is a lovely small market town in the heart of some glorious countryside. It is packed with history and adjacent to the beautiful Kennet & Avon Canal (especially the astonishing engineering feat of the Caen Hill Lock Flight, 30 mins' walk from the town centre). The town has many traditional pubs, and shops are quirky and individual rather than the standard chain stores you can find anywhere. (But don't come for a shopping experience.)
Room was really comfy, we ate Sunday Lunch and Breakfast. Both were excellent, great variety and perfectly cooked. Staff were outstanding, friendly, polite, efficient. We will be back whether to stay or eat or both the next time we are in Devizes. Thank you
Very clean and comfortable stay. Loved the hamper for breakfast. Very central so easy access to the pubs and restaurants. Devizes is a very nice market town and we have no hesitation in recommending a stay. We will definitely be back.
Excellent food and drink in the restaurant. Accommodation clean, comfortable and reasonably spacious. Service friendly and obliging. Convenient location in the centre of Devizes. Hotel building historic and characterful.
We came to Devizes for a funeral, we usually sty at The Bear but they could not accomodate us for 3 nights so chose the Black Swan Inn for location. Food was very good as was staff.
