I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. The location is superb, right next to the castle and in the center of Dunster, making it super convenient. The rooms were cozy with a lovely four-poster bed and cute touches like fresh milk available. The vegetarian breakfast was delicious, and the bed was so comfy with a nice ceiling fan. However, the only downside was that the hotel is a bit pricey.

The hotel offers a delightful stay with a fantastic vegetarian breakfast and very comfy bed, alongside little touches like fresh milk available. The service from the housekeeping team was top-notch. On the downside, the location, although close to the main attractions of the village, could be noisy being right next to a pub. The dining experience served great vegan options but lacked homegrown organic fruits.
