Never better!

No wonder this inn is rated so highly, it's a wonderful getaway in a charming village. The lamb dinner and hot English breakfast were outstanding. Friendly atmosphere and very welcoming staff. Our room was spacious and clean.

Enjoyable and welcoming visit

Gave us a friendly and enjoyable stopover for our onward journey to Cornwall. Food was lovely and breakfast included was very nice. Dog friendly with a nice walk across the road through surrounding fields. A lovely setting and would recommend if you’re wanting to break a longer journey up or looking for a weekend stop with your dog.

Warm and welcoming stay near Wellington, Somerset

Staff were extremely welcoming and hospitable. Room was excellent, nice bed and bed linen, extremely clean and warm - provided everything you might need in way of tea/coffee making facilities and fridge. Excellent TV with all the stations. Stay included breakfast, we only had the continental as had an early departure but hot breakfast was also available. Would highly recommend.

Huge room with adjooning living room.

Lovely bedroom with an adjoining living room, so plenty of space. There was also a fridge and kitchen sink, but no microwave. (Odd). Our negative was that the bedroom wasn't dark enough, could have done with a curtain on the side window.
