Paul United Kingdom

I booked late, arrived late but the manager gave me clear precise info to get into my room. was due to miss breakfast as was leaving before the scheduled breakfast start time but the manager arranged for her and the chef to come in early to make sure I got breakfast. above & beyond ….. sent me off to work with a full belly of a great breakfast.

Andrew United Kingdom

The room was very clean and the bathroom had a big shower. Breakfast was amazing and delicious and the staff really nice and attentive. The restaurant/bar was beautiful decorated and it had a lot of food options (with good price). You can order wherever you want and pay everything at the end of your stay.

Blancart United Kingdom

A lovely hotel in a beautiful location right on the historic village square. Parking is very close to the hotel, with 48hr free parking available just a 2 min walk away. The room was very comfortable, with a nice large bed. The breakfast was very good and the staff very efficient, friendly and helpful. Very well located for a visit to Cheddar Gorge, which was approx. 2.5 miles walk on either a footpath that runs around a reservoir or the old railway track, now a footpath / cycle path.

Carol United Kingdom

Had an excellent evening meal there, the onion rings should be listed as “a National Institution “! AMAZING.Breakfast was equally good with excellent choice including beautiful strawberries. Very attentive and friendly staff.

Adrian United Kingdom

We had a one night stay, though the hotel was so welcoming in all respects, that we would have stayed much longer. Location, staff, room comfort and food were all first class.

Stephen Spain

The staff were friendly and helpful. The beer is well kept, the room was really comfortable, and It was a nice breakfast.😁👍

Laura United Kingdom

The hotel and restaurant had such a lovely feel. The staff were so friendly, the rooms were clean and comfortable and the food was beyond! I visit the area often and this is a real gem of a find! Will definitely be a returning customer. The village itself was like something off a postcard. A lovely church just behind and an amazing antique shop with vintage clothing. A real find.

Gaming United Kingdom

Very good stay at short notice,couldn’t have asked for anything more!

Al Ireland
