The Inn dates back to the 1600's, the owner who's been there about 22 years was lovely and his food was delicious. The rooms were clean and tidy although the bathroom was a little jaded but it suited us perfectly and we would go back

Lovely 500 year old pub!
Three night stay to visit relatives. Easy check in with Geoff our genial and knowledgable host who showed us to our comfortable room. A good level of cleanliness given the age and construction of the building.

I had a very comfortable stay & was given a free room upgrade. The service was excellent. I had an evening meal at the Inn, which was tasty, well-cooked & reasonably priced. Overall, a positive experience & great value for money. I would happily stay again.

The place is run down- closed in fact- we had the owner turn up to let us in. THen he left the building....we were only ones in the whole place. ". Owner suggested he might open the bar later for food. Even the signage outside suggested this place hadnt been properly run as a hospitality place for a while. We didnt stay - paid the bill anyway and travelled on our way. Poor - pictures are decieving!

Although, primarily by nature of the building, some of the interior is in need of udating. That said it is clean and comfortable. The landlord Jeff (or Geoff) is lovely, friendly, and a good conversation maker. The food is good and served with a friendly smile, by a lovely lady or Jeff himself. A warm, cosy log burning fire in the dining area too adds to the ambience. The hotel is within easy reach of the Bath & West Showground, ideal if ypur exhibiting there. This is my second visit and I will be back again next year.

I liked that we were greeted by a lovely friendly landlord, who even remembered my relative from her last visit a year before, which was a nice touch. The rooms and en-suites are basic and small, but are clean and comfortable. There is a limited food menu, however everything we had was very tasty. We only saw one other member of staff during our 2 night stay and she was a lovely lady, super friendly and very helpful. Overall it was a pleasant stay.

This is a great old fashioned pub with rooms and the cost reflects these values. The pub is ideally placed for visiting the Bath and West Showground and adjoining delightful Somerset towns of Wincanton, Shepton Mallet, Glastonbury, Wells and Street (Clarkes Village) to name but a few. The Landlord and staff are very inviting and helpful. Breakfast and evening meal (if chosen) are well cooked and presented and include local produce. A little gem alongside the A371. Thoroughly recommended and a return visit planned for next year.
