An ideal place to stay for a peaceful time
Reviewed By I5392OSrobertsMy wife and I stayed for 3 nights whilst visiting family in Somerset. The accommodation was very clean and had everything you needed. The hosts were very welcoming but left you alone. They also provided a beautiful breakfast every morning which you order the night before. I thought the whole stay was excellent value for money.

Family Wedding - let down by cold showers and no heating
Reviewed By Ben RWe stayed here the night before my brother wedding. We arrived and the place is absolutely stunning- the lambs opersite, dancing and skipping while the sunset was amazing. It really was the scene from a movie. We checked into our rooms and on the face of it the room was spacious, clean and very modern, you couldn’t ask for more. There’s parking outside of the room and guest can usually easily get a reservation at the restaurant. Your thinking now after reading the start of this review. Why is this guy complaining, well let me continue. As you can imagine, it’s the day before the wedding and our family is slightly flustered. But yet again Elaine who was running the restaurant couldn’t have done more to help. She was amazing, I really can’t say thank you enough to this women. She’s was kind and consider and she even printing my brother wedding speech out which was brilliant. So we sat down for dinner and the food was brilliant. The only issue with this place was enduring a cold night sleep before the wedding and then waking up to a cold shower which isn’t what you want the day before your wedding.Persomally I don’t really care about me but I felt so sorry for my poor brother who shouldn’t of had this happen. I do want to finish with by saying the staff at this place are a massive asset and thank you to them all.

Fabulous!!
Reviewed By Jtol62Stayed one night en route to visiting family. Really nice and friendly host Chris. The room was very relaxing and clean, bed really comfortable. The breakfast was enormous and cooked to perfection. I felt guilty I couldn't eat it all! Would definitely stay again and can highly recommend.
5. The Bell Broadway
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 105 reviews
A family-run traditional English Country Inn with open fires, high quality locally sourced produce and well-kept Ales in a rural village location. Good links to the main road routes, a few minutes from the A303 and near the M5. Taking pride of place in the picturesque village of Broadway near Ilminster in South Somerset, enjoy the warmest of welcomes at The Bell Broadway. A unique experience, sensitively refurbished to preserve the character of the 18th century inn, combined with exceptional contemporary luxuries.
Appalling Service on bank holiday
Reviewed By chloemcclWe visited for the quiz on bank holiday Friday evening, we booked a table. Quiz and host were good. However, the waiting staff were terrible and the ‘manager’ couldn’t care less when issues were raised. We waited over an hour for 4 pizzas when we asked for an update we just got told we were busy and and when the pizzas did arrived they didn’t arrive all together and for £15.00 plus for a pizza not good enough. No apology forthcoming from any of the staff including manager. Disappointing and over priced.
6. New Inn

Situated in the beautiful unspoilt village of Dowlish Wake in the heart of picturesque rural Somerset, the New Inn is a 350 year old stone built pub and is situated just 200 yards from the ever popular Perry's Cider Mill and Museum.We have two separate bar areas both with wood burning stoves, a stunning non smoking Restaurant serving lunches and evening meals and a large secluded beer garden which is perfect for those warm summer evenings.
Good old-fashioned pub hospitality.
Reviewed By eurogitVery comfortable bed and ideally situated for coast, countryside, stately homes and, if you are into fly-fishing, well placed for a number of West Country lakes. Staff are friendly and helpful and the breakfast will set you up for the day!

What a shambles
Reviewed By Jan VWe emailed here on 19th September to ask if they had any availability. Received answer the same day saying they had a room free on room only basis. I replied asking if we could have it for 4 nights from the 23rd. Did not get anything confirming booking until 21st. We were flying in from Spain and it seems everyone in UK is staycationing, so virtually nowhere has any availability. We arrived, shown room and had meal in dining area. We arranged breakfasts at another pub nearby as George doesn't do breakfasts. We're told if we needed any thing like towels or tea, to put towels or teapot outside door. Reason for UK visit was to try and organise care for hubby's father, so rather stressful. Nothing was said about what to do when we were leaving. We left on Monday morning, there was no one around, we even called back after breakfast to check. Then when we were on way home from airport in Spain on Tuesday afternoon I get a call asking for payment. Not convenient for me at that time. Arrange that they will call next day. Then get an email asking me to call them at 11. They are the ones wanting payment, yet I have to call them !!!!! I called at 11.20 Spanish time, was told Sonia was not available so could I phone back. Again who is it who wants paying???? It wasn't convinent to call back, so they took my details. Later I get another email asking me to check details I had given them. I was not impressed with their total lack of information, we weren't told their opening hours, infact told there's always someone about. Nor at paying £75 a night for a room where you can only occasionally get toilet to flush and there were cobwebs. No linen changes, no bed making. No communication.
8. Duke of York

Beautiful Somerset village pub, serving excellent food, a good selection of drinks and lovely accommodation.
What a gem!
Reviewed By FernecatVisiting friends in the area we chose to stay at the Duke of York for a couple of nights. It was an excellent choice. The room was well decorated, warm and clean with plenty of drawers and wardrobe space. The lighting was just right, subdued when required but with a light bright enough to see to apply make-up. The en-suite has a large heated towel rail which kept the room warm. There was also a large walk-in shower. Breakfast was huge and well cooked. The pub was a friendly place and the food was delicious. Our friends joined us for our second evening. They had never visited before, despite living in the next village for many years. We were all very impressed by the food and the service. They said they will definitely be back, as will we.

Our restaurant offers an interesting menu which is all freshly prepared by our talented chefs using local produce. We also have on offer a selection of real ales, ciders, lagers and wines to complement your meal or just for a relaxing drink.
Celebration Lunch for 29 of us - FIVE-STAR
Reviewed By 797ianpWe know the Barrington Boar well and asked Victoria and Al to host a celebration lunch for us which ended up being for 29. We had the whole pub to ourselves and the event was faultless. Drinks in the newly-created garden were followed by the full 3-course lunch menu in the pub and restaurant, served efficiently with a friendly and attentive eye for detail. Most important was that everything was absolutely delicious and looked wonderful. Thank you for a memorable day; everyone was on absolutely top form.
