Hard to fault this excellent place for an overnight stay. Ample parking, quiet location, spacious comfortable room with extensive amenities, including fresh milk in fridge for tea/coffee. Pleasant staff and prompt service in restaurant.

Excellent spot for exploring Winchester and Downs
Lovely place and enjoyed the restaurant food and drink at lunch and for dinner. The burger and pork chop were particularly good. The rooms are good but I would say it's function over comfort. Beds were fine just a little sparce and nothing comfy to sit on apart from the bed really. So not a room to stay for a bit of a pamper stay ...but great if you are out and about. Amenities all present and correct and liked the DAB radio touch

Comfortable, welcoming and a little different.
A really nice place to stay, proving that quirky doesn’t have to be weird. Comfortable bed, welcoming team, great food (perfect fish pie) served with a smile by Jess 😊

Wonderfully themed place with great service.
What a great place! Themed with Horses! Who knew? Fantastic service and very excellent food, both dinner (evening) and the breakfast. Clean rooms, comfortable and a good shower. The dinner service team were great, the place gets quite busy (not surprised) and the hosts were still very attentive and efficient to serve the table. Overall a very nice place to stay and a thankyou to Belle (waitress) for the service we received.

A favorite place but..
A hotel and restaraunt where we love to stay. Great food and terrific staff. This visit spoiled by the room allocated - #6 - located on a corner with frequent periods of outside noise in the evening and obstructed access in the morning.
Kirk, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Relaxed and friendly
The Running Horse is nestled in a forest area and is relaxing and quiet. The staff were all friendly and helpful. The room was modern and the bed was comfortable. Lots of power outlets in the room. The restaurant menu was very extensive and breakfast was comprehensive. I would definitely stay there again next time I'm in the area.
