Great value for money and comfortable rooms

Lovely place with really helpful staff and good food. We stayed ofernight to meet friends and celebrate a birthday. Dinner was excellent and reasonably priced and breakfast was freshly cooked and very tasty. There is a good choice of food on the dinner menu. The rooms were good for the price and breakfast was included. There is a nice deating area in the bar and a separate dining area and a small but pleasant garden at the front with tables etc. Plenty of free parking on site. A great place to meet up and we will be returning in the future.

A great find!

A lovely night stay - I was impressed with the spacious room I was allocated and the quality of the furniture and fittings. The room was lovely and warm. Breakfast menu was fantastic and a very good choice of items provided. The only downside was trying to find it as the postcode took me to a housing estate and I got very lost!

Really good value for a beautiful Inn, with great

Both outside and inside decor were gorgeous. Our gps took us a weird way and we werent thrilled with the residential location until we turned the corner and saw the building; it is a perfect little countryside inn. We has delicious food, great service, and a comfortable stay. The man who checked us in was especially helpful, and the dinner and breakfast service were great too. Overall a wonderful stay for any price, but it was also really good value.

BOWER INN

The building is very welcoming as you drive into the carpark. Staff were very friendly and food was delicious. Unfortunately, although the room was very spacious and the decor was tastefull, the bed was very uncomfortable and meant we both didn't sleep well.

Everything was good apart from trying to find the inn on arrival. We were informed that Bower Lane was closed and spent 30 minutes driving around the local housing estates! Breakfast service was very slow, but found out the pilot light in the kitchen had gone out. Room was great.

Beautiful Inn to stay!

A lovely suite. Great living/kitchen room if you wanted to be independent. We just booked one night. Comfy bed, clean throughout. By the management's own admission, the bathroom is due a redecoration in the NY. But otherwise very pleasant. Had trouble with main building front door and they immediately called in locksmiths to sort the jamming. Superb breakfast.

Charming Somerset retreat

It really doesn't get any better than The Bower Inn. Nestled on the edge of the Somerset Levels near Bridgwater, this stunning 18th-century pub, restaurant, and hotel is a true delight. As part of the Butcombe Brewery family, The Bower Inn offers a charming blend of history and modern comfort. From the moment you arrive, you're greeted by warm and welcoming staff, making you feel right at home. The inn features 16 beautifully individual hotel rooms, each exuding character and charm. With easy access to the M5, it's the perfect spot whether you're exploring the area for pleasure or passing through on business. The Bower Inn excels in delivering value for money. I booked my stay for less than £130 through @Hotels.com. ,which is a steal considering the quality of the accommodation. The rooms are cosy and well-appointed, ensuring a comfortable stay. One of the highlights of The Bower Inn is its food. The restaurant serves stunning seasonal dishes that showcase the best of local produce. The selection of cask ales, craft beers, ciders, wines, and cocktails is excellent, catering to every taste. The English breakfast is a particular treat, setting you up perfectly for the day ahead. Set in the rural part of Bridgwater, The Bower Inn offers a peaceful retreat with picturesque surroundings. It's one of my favourite places to stay for both its charm and value for money. While it's officially rated as a 4-star accommodation, I would happily rate it 4.5. @hiddengemsUK.com
