Breakfast was average, room was comfortable but a bit dirty around room, shower was cold but only to find out the merging switch needs time to heat. Giving the inn was out in the country it wasnt at all bad. Value for money definitely. The host was welcoming and accommodated our wishes & choices in Breakfast

Tired accommodation

Although I had a cooked breakfast, it consisted of one sausage, a small piece of bacon and ‘bulked up’ by beans and sliced potato. This was rather poor. The room could have been improved very cheaply. The bath mat had holes in it. There was only hand wash in the shower and a good mould remover was badly needed.

The property is kind of off the beaten path and a little dated. The room was small but comfortable. The landlord was friendly and helpful. We only stayed for one night on out way to Bath. So it served the purpose it was needed for.

Very adjacent to Bath and Somerset Showground for access to Newwine conference as well as close to Shepton Mallet. Breakfast was substantial and decent. Overall, good stay. Thank-you
