Great short stay with our dogs

Stayed for 3 nights in Lookout with our 2 dogs. Received a warm welcome and great service throughout from Sam and his team. The room is spacious, comfortable, clean and well-appointed, and bathroom is nice. The room was warm given the time of year, but equipped with a fan and the team were happy to provide use of their fridge since there is no longer an in-room fridge - so no issue. We liked having a small terrace, also great to be able to park right outside the room - parking is free and plentiful. No noise issues either from the pub itself or from neighbouring rooms overnight, which was a relief with two watchful spaniels! Food is good - decent choice and quality. Breakfasts are fantastic and set us up nicely for long days of walking! The inn is well located for local walks and just a short drive to Cheddar etc. We would recommend, and will be back!

What a find

What a find! Stayed at the swan to break our trip to st Ives. So pleased we did, the swan is a lovely building in a lovely setting, the staff quite honestly can’t do enough for you, our evening meal was really good and the full English that we both had was fantastic all in all I would recommend a stay at the swan without hesitation we are looking forward to visiting again soon
