Our history

An inn on the road to the stones

The Antrobus is a Grade-listed 17th-century coaching inn on Church Street, in the middle of Amesbury. The town is often described as the longest continuously inhabited settlement in Britain, and people were living here long before anyone raised a stone on the plain.

Coaches stopped here on the way west. Travellers still do, and most of them are heading the same way you are.

The Beatles Suite

John, Paul, George and Ringo stayed here

The Beatles checked in to The Antrobus, and one of our rooms now carries their name.

They came in May 1965 to film Help! on Salisbury Plain, a few miles up the road, and stayed with us for three days while they worked. The photograph shows them in our Fountain Room. You can book the Beatles Suite like any other room.

The rose garden

A walled garden behind a town-centre hotel

Walk through the hotel and out the back, and Church Street disappears. There is a lawn, a stone fountain, beds of English roses and, at the far end, the arbour where couples marry outdoors.

On a warm evening it is the best place in the hotel to sit with a drink.
