I stayed in the attic room and loved the character it added to the experience. The room was spacious, clean, and nicely presented, but watch out for the low front door. The service was exceptional, especially with a little mishap we had on the carpet. The location was fantastic, right between Minehead and Dunster, making it very convenient. Overall, a charming period building with lovely gardens.

My stay at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were immaculately clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully decorated, but the continuous traffic noise from the busy road was a downside. The service was welcoming and helpful, with a minor issue of heating being turned off during the day. The location was convenient next to the A39, although leaving the car park was a bit tricky. The dining experience was delightful, especially the breakfast, and facilities were top-notch throughout.
