Highrove Visit

[johnny]

Hi
We are visiting Highgrove Gardens on the 22nd July and want a nice gay friendly place to stay.....without loadsa kids! Also with a v.nice restaurant either on site or nearby. Heard the Priory Inn is nice...comments on that or any other suggestions.
Thanks

The Priory is a lovely place, if a little empty at times (I'm referring to their restaurant/bar area) with good food and, fingers crossed you get good weather, a pleasant beer garden in which to watch the world pass by. Also worth considering though is the Ormond. The bar/restaurant area has recently been redeveloped and is now extremely nice.

In terms of the restaurant I would say that the Ormond's is somewhat classier, the Priory being a "Gastropub" style place. Both, however serve excellent food.

As for the gay-friendliness of them both, sadly I can't comment. However both have quite young, friendly and professional staff which suggests you won't have a problem.
