Welcome to the White Hart, Ford

Landlord Tamas and his friendly team welcome you to the White Hart, nestled in the sleepy hamlet of Ford, near Chippenham, a hidden gem, surrounded by the leafy loveliness and babbling By Brooke that meanders through the garden. 

Dating back to Tudor times, the White Hart served as a coaching inn, linking London to the West Country. With every nook and cranny holding a piece of history, from the creaking wooden floors to the exposed beams and wonky lintels, there’s olde worlde charm and character oozing from every corner. 

Situated within easy reach of the ‘prettiest village in England’ Castle Combe, is a must visit, a living antique, adrift in the Wiltshire countryside, just a 5-minute drive or follow one of the many picture-post-card hiking trails or nature walks. We’re dog friendly too so no need to leave anyone behind this holiday. You and your four-legged friends can explore the beauty of the area together. 

Above and beside our delightful pub, a hidden gem awaits: 11 uniquely loveable bedrooms, each offering an irresistible blend of charm, tradition and thoughtful details. These rooms are more than just accommodations; they are cosy retreats. 

Whether you’re seeking a cosy corner for a quiet drink, a hearty meal by the fireside, or a restful night’s sleep in one of our beautifully crafted rooms, the White Hart in Ford promises an unforgettable experience.  

Our Bedrooms

Above our lovely olde-worlde pub you’ll find 11 characterful bedrooms. The perfect place to lay a weary head after a day exploring the charming Cotswold countryside.

The most quintessential British meal, the Sunday roast. Think slow cooked British sourced meat, double egg Yorkies, crispy roast potatoes and lashings of chef’s secret recipe gravy.

Father’s Day

With Father’s Day approaching, we believe that the best way to treat our fatherly figures is to pick up the bill. Whether that be on the day, with us enjoying a Sunday roast (or perhaps a few brews in our garden).

Or by giving the gift of a future round, we have options for you to really treat Dad this year. Our Gift Vouchers allow you to get the gift of some great food and drink, and can be simply purchased on our website.

Skip the mug this year and get him something he’ll really enjoy.

Soak up the sun

We especially look forward to the summer months at White Hart, as it means more time spent in our glorious pub garden.

Imagine yourself sitting in the warming sun, sipping on a glass of crisp rosé, catching up with friends while listening to the sounds of the gentle river close by.

Located in the heart of the countryside, with ample walks close by, we are lucky to have such a haven as part of our pub. But we want to be able to share this experience with you. So, when will you be joining us for some pure Somerset summer bliss?
