The Pear Tree at Purton, formerly the vicarage, is an elegant Cotswold stone hotel set in seven acres on the outskirts of the Saxon village of Purton, which nestles in the Vale of the White Horse between the Cotswolds and the Marlborough Downs. Just five miles from the Wiltshire town of Swindon, the hotel is within easy access of the M4 and is perfectly placed to visit numerous West Country attractions including the Cotswolds, Longleat, Blenheim Palace, the Georgian city of Bath and Stonehenge.
'Dedication to service is the hallmark of this quietly excellent country hotel in the famous Vale of the White Horse, deep in rural Wiltshire…' as described by the RAC when it awarded The Pear Tree with the Blue Ribbon, its highest award for excellence
The Pear Tree has 17 individually decorated en suite rooms and suites, many with spa baths and some with four-poster beds. All the hotel rooms are furnished to a high standard and offer a host of luxury amenities.
In The Pear Tree's Conservatory Restaurant, Head Chef Alan Postill specialises in modern English cooking using the very best of fresh ingredients. His food has been the recipient of many awards, including two rosettes from the AA, and is matched with an excellent wine list. The Pear Tree's beautiful gardens are a perfect place to relax.
Within easy access of Swindon, the hotel, with its peaceful setting in Purton, is the ideal choice for a stay away, meetings, private functions and weddings. The Pear Tree provides stylish function rooms, professional service and excellent food, making it a venue suitable for any occasion.
Each of the 17 individually decorated rooms and suites is named after a character associated with the village of Purton. For example, Anne Hyde, the mother of Queen Mary and Queen Anne, James Kibblewhite the runner, Nevil Maskelyne the Astronomer Royal and EH Budd the cricketer.

Three-course menus start from £31.00 per person. As a rough guide to price, if you include a drink on arrival, half a bottle of wine per person with the meal, a glass of champagne for the toasts and floral table arrangements, you should add £26 to the menu price per person.
