Exceptionally friendly and kind with a superb breakfast and very fair pricing. Would love to return just for the breakfast alone, hard to top.

Gale was a most excellent hostess. The house is lovely and the breakfast was fabulous. We totally enjoyed our stay there.

The room was very clean and very comfortable, furnished to a high standard with everything that was needed. Very friendly and welcoming owners Perfect....

Breakfast was adequate, could have been improved with a wider choice of cereals and hot cooked foods. Rooms were clean and the hosts very welcoming. On street parking was relatively easy to achieve in close proximity to B&B.

Castleton House is wonderfully spacious, classically styled with comfort and elegance that you’ll enjoy in full

Good location for us and we received a warm welcome. Comfortable room and lovely breakfast.

All of it. An abundance of Good, fresh food for breakfast, very comfortable and spotlesd room and a very warm hostess

A very comfortable room in a beautiful old house. Fresh milk and delicious biscuits to go with the tea and coffee making facilities. Superb cooked breakfast (lots of options) and fresh home-made bread. The owner was very welcoming and extremely helpful. Oh and in the evening we ate at the pub directly across the road! Perfect.

A lovely house, location, breakfast and Gail was a charming host.

Beautiful room, lovely facilities , made to feel very welcome. Breakfast was amazing with lots of choice. Gail went out of her way to help me with parking as the Mere festival was on during my stay. Intend to book here again in the very near future.

Peter and I have been living in Mere since 2002 and welcoming guests into our home since 2004. Castleton House is a bit of a tardis, in that it's much larger on the inside than it appears from the exterior. We have two bedrooms on the first floor, the en-suite twin with a bath, shower, loo and basin and the double room with a small en-suite shower room with loo and basin. On the second floor there is a second double room with an en-suite shower. Breakfasts are served in the ground floor dining room and the first floor drawing room is available for guests use. There is free parking outside the front door and off street parking at the rear of the property
We've been married for a long time!!! and have two grown up sons. Gail runs the B&B and can give lots of information on what to see and do in the area. During the summer I'm busy on my allotment (this also provides fruit for our homemade jams) and often out and about on my bicycle. In the winter when things are quieter we like to travel, go racing, catch up with friends and enjoy the cinema, theatre and reading.
We're in the centre of the small town of Mere, just off the A303 and half way between London and Cornwall. The National Trust Gardens at Stourhead are 3 miles away and we're a 20 minute drive from Longleat House and Safari Park. The cities of Bath, Salisbury and Wells are all within a 45 minute drive and the smaller towns of Shaftesbury, Sherborne and Warminster are local to us. Wincanton racecourse is close by. There are local pubs and restaurants within walking distance from the front door and a small supermarket too.
