A lovely character property, beautiful grounds, peaceful. The rooms were lovely, my son asked to change his room as there was no shower, just a hose on the bath taps, he was given another room no problems. My one and only criticism was the mattress wasn’t very comfy, could do with replacing as I could feel springs, or maybe add a memory foam topper. Might be ok for some, but I have a very bad back. The breakfast was lovely with continental to start and then a choice of cooked breakfasts, I had an omelette it was delicious. The staff were friendly and polite, particularly the lady who served our breakfast.

Nothing not to like.

The food was delicious and well presented. The grounds natural with an easy pathway around the pond. We had a peep into the wedding reception room which was all laid out for a wedding and it looked magnificent. It is fantastic that the old mill machinery and water wheel can be observed through glass panels and more should be made of this! The staff were polite and efficient and extra compliments must go to the chef who produced some delicious dishes.

The reception area didn't give a good first impression and could easily be changed by being a little brighter.

All of the staff we encountered were just wonderful and so welcoming and went above and beyond to ensure we had a fabulous stay. Absolutely must mention Mandy who was amazing and shared in our excitement for fossil hunting setting up a 'museum' for us to display our treasures at breakfast the following morning! They absolutely made our visit 🙂

Loved the place, the facilities, the beautiful surroundings, meeting George the peacock!Nothing to dislike (I promise I'm not a member of staff!)

It was a perfect place for some rnr whilst visiting friends in Somerset. A lovely old building that had once been a Mill. The grounds were lovely, a stream, lake daffodils and a peacock and peahen made it so very welcoming. The owner and I chatted a lot and I was made to feel extremely welcome. I slept well and comfortably. I only needed a light evening meal which they were happy to do and lovely cooked breakfast in the morning before heading off. I would recommend Hornsbury

An oasis of calm after a hectic drive on the A30. Beautiful grounds including a lake and peacocks. The restaurant choices were excellent for our evening meal, as was breakfast - fresh fruit and a good choice of cooked items, including pancakes. Our room (2) and bathroom were very clean and spacious.

Unfortunately we were unable to access the electric charging point but this was no fault of the hotel - an issue with getting the App, which we had tried to sort out before we left home, ten days earlier. Fortunately Lidl in Chard had a fast charger that we were able to use.

Beautiful surroundings with it's own little lake. Can't say enough about the friendliness of the staff. They went out of their way to make us feel welcome and even helped with next day itinerary planning! Super team! And we had the pleasure of the Sous-Chef cooking us dinner which was superb!

Breakfast. Not up to par with the rest of the property. Luke warm tomatoes from a can and oily mushrooms should be an easy fix.

Location was quite stunning and being greeted by the peacocks was a bonus. Better still, they were unusually quiet birds. Staff very pleasant and attentive. in possession of a great sense of humour too. Four poster bed was a nice surprise and very comfortable. Our room was closest to road, although a good way off, and we could just about hear the occasional ambulance pass with its siren going but, it was generally a quiet location. Bathroom was modern and very clean. My wife rates the shower as the best she's experienced in an hotel! Ate a good dinner in the restaurant and a lovely breakfast in the morning. Will definitely stay here again in the future.

Nothing negative at all.

Quiet country setting, with a stream, and an old mill. Picturesque and relaxing. We opened our window to hear the birds chirping in the trees. The staff was friendly and helpful, the breakfast delicious and our room was spacious. The hotel is set up to do receptions and special events.

Although we slept well,the mattress in our room is due for a replacement as springs could be felt through the cover.

The relaxed feel, the excellent food ,the decor, the incorporating of the mill features into the structure of the hotel, the general cleanliness, the extremely comfortable beds, the grounds and especially the peacock!

Generally lovely - tiny issue with the door by the umbrellas - the catch was movable with the inside handle but not the outside one so once unable to open from the outside during the day. The banister up the staircase was quite grubby.

The location was perfect and the staff could not have been friendlier. The grounds are beautiful and we were lucky enough to have two really sunny days which made the surroundings even better. The three peacocks were stunning, especially George! Breakfast was very good but make sure you go in with an appetite as the chef is a feeder!! :) Very quite as it was early in the season and mid-week but that suited us just fine. Would highly recommend.

No complaints at all.
