I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is superb, right in the heart of Ilchester with fantastic access to other local amenities. The room was cozy and had everything I needed, even an iron which was a nice touch. The service was top-notch, always willing to cater to every request. Plus, having pet amenities available was a great bonus. The pub downstairs added a charming vibe to the overall experience. Although the dining experience was delightful with fresh, well-cooked food, the thin crispy fries were a real highlight. Overall, a great value for the money with a central location and many amenities to enjoy.
