It was limited dining. They offer season veg and gave us peas. And for the price it was expensive. Breakfast was shocking. The toaster didn't work. The bread was moled. There was nothing else to eat. The one staff that was on.said nothing at and just looked at us. He didn’t care. You need to get better staff. The room was ok. sheets were clean. But i won't be staying again.

The place had literally changed management that day so unfortunately there was no cooked breakfast (only continental) until Sunday when the Chef would be in. Also the dinner menu was changed temporarily because of the sudden change in management. However, the new management and team were amazing in the service provided. Dinner was excellent and there was enough at breakfast for us to be satisfied. Rooms were spotless with plenty of tea, coffee and biscuits. Hot powerful shower with shampoo, shower gel, soap, etc provided. Comfortable bed and pillows. Dog friendly too.

Its a bad review due to the poor staffing circumstances. We booked two nights B&B a few weeks ago. We arrived to be told the hotel had been bought the week before. A manager was down from London to oversee for the weekend. Our room was very nice and we had food on Saturday evening from a very limited menu completely different to the one we were expecting, which was very nice. We got up to a nice breakfast. We had to explain that we were not paying for it as we were staying bed and B&B. There was no breakfast menu, and the lady had started 2 days before. We had to ask for juice which she provided unsure what to do. We went out for the day to a Christmas market and Frome. We returned to the hotel at 6pm completlely closed and in darkness. All staff had left and we were unsure if we were the only one's there. We heard music from one other room so, assumed it was a staff member or another guest? We wanted food, so had tyo leave again to find somewhere. Luckily there was a chip shop down the road. We awoke to no breakfast. No staff. The other room were guests too on the way out. We agreed to leave after them and locked the front door. We posted the keys in a letterbox and left to look for breakfast. All staff had left at 3pm and no more were returning until Wednesday. Why did no one tell us in the morning? I've never had to close up my own hotel after visiting!!

Had a lovely weekend stay here in November, the place is charming and has a lot of character. The room was large, clean , well furnished and there was everything you needed , I also loved the view and that you could look out and see the thatched roof . Check in was easy , all the staff we met over the weekend were very welcoming , friendly and helpful so it made you feel very relaxed. New management had just taken over when we stayed , I was really happy with stay here and would recommend it.

Very welcoming. Room clean. Bed very comfortable. Good parking. Very dog friendly except there is nowhere to walk them. Breakfast disappointing as no hot drink with continental and no offer of more toast. Bathroom clean but somewhat dated.

The room was lovely, a huge en-suite with shower and a bath. Comfortable mattress, quality bedding and towels. We booked here because of the free parking and the full English breakfast included. However on arrival we read on the menu in our room that they only provide a continental breakfast. Apparently the new owners, although having reopened 4 months ago have not changed the wording of the breakfast on their site or that of all the other booking sites. So I was expecting bread rolls with a choice of ham and cheese, mixed fruit etc. but was underwhelmed at the offering which isn’t even continental….cereal, yoghurts and fruit juices. Although we were offered toast, hot drinks and croissants as well. Also they appear to be short staffed as the bar was often left unattended while the barman ran around waiting on tables as well. With a few tweaks this could be a great place to stay ie. more staff, especially on a Saturday evening and a cooked breakfast or at least honesty about the breakfast offering.
