Savernake Forest Hotel.

A Memory of Savernake Forest.

Hi , I used to work at the Savernake Forest Hotel in 1970/71. I looked after the the hunt horses which were stabled at the back of the Hotel. I had a room nearest to the back door so I could easily get to work. 2 of the Horses I looked after belonged to Lord and Lady Savernake, 'Kismet and Cinderella' .I rode them everyday to keep them fit for the winter hunts.
I also attended a Christmas party at Lord and Lady Savernakes house. As I was a friend of their daughter I was invited to keep her company. We had a really lovely time. Unfortunately I am unable to remember her name, but we had fun around their gardens . I was only 15 at the time and I am 65 now so some of the memories have faded now.

Do you remember the railway that ran through Savernake Forest?
No sorry. We rode the horses through the forest away from the station so they wouldn't spook at the trains.
