Liz & Graeme were wonderful and welcoming hosts. Our room, which was large and comfortable, was on the ground floor with french doors that could be used as access to the parking area (across and down from the house), or just to let in fresh air on a lovely sunny day/evening. The room also had tea making facilities, free wifi and a well appointed en-suite bathroom. The choices for breakfast were good, as was the coffee and tea. The house is a short walk to good restaurants in Ilchester, and only a few minutes drive from the Fleet Air Arm Museum.
AustraliaFantastic breakfast, lovely selection available. Very welcoming and friendly.
United KingdomThe hosts were friendly without being intrusive. Everything was clean, comfortable and in good condition. The food was excellent. This was B&B at its best, sadly not as common as once it was.
United KingdomCharming hosts who were very friendly and did everything to welcome us and ensure we had a comfortable stay. Immaculately clean room with some very nice touches including foil-wrapped chocs, good quality toiletries and hand cream. Lovely breakfast with home made bread and proper coffee in a cafetiere, which we enjoyed in the pretty garden. An altogether five-star b&b!

Liz and Graeme
Liongate House was converted from a 200 year old stable in 2006. It was sympathetically rebuilt as a bed and breakfast with careful attention to detail. Although modern inside the outside was rebuilt using the old bricks to retain its character.
We moved to Ilchester from Surrey in August 2013 to take over the ownership of Liongate House which was already being run as a successful bed and breakfast. We are now living the dream!
Ilchester is an old roman town and is steeped in history. Liongate House is within a very short walk which is flat, well lit and with a pavement from a good selection eating establishments.
