"I could happily live in the small but perfectly formed Arch forever. The tiny house has been beautifully realised and makes a quirky and romantic place to stay in a quirky and romantic corner of Wiltshire - for just a night, a weekend or longer."

Fiona Duncan

"A jewel of a pub"

Vanity Fair A-list

"Forget happy hour, it’s happy days at The Beckford Arms"

Harpers Bazaar

"Owners Dan Brod, Charlie Luxton and Matt Greenlees have bottled that elusive home-from-home vibe and sprinkled it all over this ivy-clad 18th-century country inn near Tisbury."

Susan D’Arcy, The Times

Established in 1740, The Beckford Arms is a traditional yet stylish country inn located on the edge of the stunning rolling parkland of the Fonthill Estate in Wiltshire, just under two hours from London and twenty minutes from Salisbury. The pub has an oak stool lined bar that is stocked with local ales, a restaurant serving unpretentious, seasonal food, a sun-filled terrace for the summer months, a homely library for intimate gatherings, a sitting room with roaring fires and deep antique chairs, eight characterful bedrooms, two luxurious lodges and a unique stay within The Arch at Fonthill Estate.

A friendly face with a heart of gold, Molly is our lovely Floor Manager. When she's not flower arranging, making the perfect coffee, or doing her best for our wonderful guests, you'll find her photographing our other sites as our Marketing Assistant.

Calum
Bar Manager

Calum is our trusty Bar Manager, keeping the team on top form and our taps nice and local - he’s always happy to chat all things beer and whisky and never one to turn down a good pint himself. When he’s not leading from the front, you’ll find him walking his two dogs through the local countryside or playing a spot of cricket.

Ellie
Assistant General Manager

A country girl at heart, Ellie spent seven years working with dressage horses before deciding it was time for a new challenge. Inspired by her brother’s hospitality tales, she swapped stables for service and now loves nothing more than seeing guests have a good time. When she’s not at the pub, you'll find her walking her Spaniel, Lulu, followed by a chocolate pudding and a well-earned G&T.
