Farthings Country House Hotel  

Reception was first class. The young staff were polite and helpful and the amenities agreeable. It was evident that the aim of the establishment was to put guests at their ease and nothing appeared to be too much trouble.

The meals were fair only and over priced. This includes the breakfast. It would not be our wish to eat there again. As far as food was concerned, value for money was not good.

We received first rate attention from the moment we arrived until we departed. Nothing was too much trouble. We felt most welcome at this lovely hotel and would definitely stay again.

Very good attention to detail. Common areas and bedrooms nicely furnished and clean.

Uncomfortable bed. Expensive breakfast

It was in a lovely location the staff were friendly and helpfull the rooms were very comfortable the atmoshere was very relaxed I only wish we could have stayed longer. Sasha the hotels dog was very welcoming he was lovely

The open fire was a really nice feature but the smell of smoke was a little strong, you did get used to it in the end! Also anyone who didnt like dogs may be upset by sasha sitting on their knee!

Small and friendly. Convenient to Taunton to Bridgewater canal which we were cycling.

Continental Breakfast had very poor selection with only cereal toast and juices. Where were the crosissants, cold meats etc.? Not good value for money. Food service between course very slow but worth waiting for.

We thouroughly enjoyed the pampering of the staff!! Always checking that we were satisfied with our food and that we had enough alcohol! What more is needed when you and your friends have gone away for a relaxing well fed and watered week-end!!

The rooms were very well presented with a very comfortable bed.

The charge of 36 pounds for a vegetarian meal which was only a pasta and wild mushrooms in a sauce plus two other courses was too much.The bar charge was 6 pounds for one gin and tonic...In my home town I can get two for three pounds fifty.

Our booking was upgraded so that we stayed the two nights in 'Magnolia', a delightful room with large en-suite and a walk-in closet.

The continental breakfast selection, although certainly adequate, could be a bit broader and made more interesting.

Exceptional friendly staff. Quiet surroundings. Nice lobby area with lounge.

Wifi was only working in the back of the hotel, which was an inconvenience.

Staff extremely polite and provide an excellent service!

I would like to have been warned that I was going to be charged £2 each day for a 50p newspaper!

Lovely hotel, room beautifully done & very comfortable. Quiet village location, ideal for somerset inland tourist visiting.

Would suggest they lower the price of the dinner. We would have eaten there, with our guests, but thought the prices excessive. This is gourmet only with no alternative.

This is an extremely well presented and friendly hotel. The attention to detail e.g. a fridge to to replenish your own milk and water is impressive. The welcome was first class, warm and accommodating. I would recommend this as a place to stay.
