Very convenient location for the Royal Bath & West Showground. Owner was very friendly, helpful and accommodating. Room was a little small but contained everything we needed and was very comfortable. We ate here on both nights of our stay and the food was great. Breakfast was also lovely. The room would benefit from a few cosmetic improvements but we would certainly stay here again.

We ate supper and had breakfast in the hotel - both meals were good. The only point to make is that the room we had would be small for a long stay, but there may be larger ones. I left my glasses behind and Geoff, the owner, posted them back to me the next day.

This is the second time we have stayed at this property and already booked to come back again. Everything you need for a pleasant stay. Free parking is also a bonus. Just a few minutes away from the showground where they hold antique fairs. Jeff is an excellent host and cooks amazing meals. Looking forward to going back again soon.

Parking easy and onsite Food was great Host welcoming, friendly and professional Nice bar area Room warm and spacious. We stayed in the family room which was surprisingly spacious with proper beds for all. However, this room happens to be at the front of the property, which itself sits on the corner of a busy main road. Unfortunately the headlights and noise from traffic throughout the night made for a very difficult nights sleep.
