Dunster Castle Hotel

Really warm welcome when we arrived, from owner John, along with a room upgrade! What’s not to like :-) Loved the interior decor and the little touches like the sherry in the room and the fresh milk. We fortunately stayed on a Sunday night, so got to sample the Sunday Roast already mentioned in previous reviews. The hosts were really accommodating with my veggie gluten free needs also. Great night’s sleep in a huge bed, followed by a fabulous freshly cooked breakfast the following morning. Yoghurt and fresh fruit, smoked salmon and scrambled eggs. Full meaty English breakfast for my accomplice. Dunster Village is gorgeous. Plenty to keep visitors busy for a weekend. We will definitely put this hotel onto our return visits list. Tip: the archway into the huge hotel car park is narrow for modern cars, as was designed for walking a horse through :-) so ask a fellow passenger (or the hosts) to guide you through on arrival.

We only stayed one night, so pleased we did. The room was excellent, the hosts were lovely people. We had a Roast dinner Sunday night, which is one of the two nights they currently offer meals. Breakfast was very good as well, we were able to leave the car after checking out which was a bonus as it gave us a chance to go up to the castle and high street .

Beautiful location, lovely hotel and so friendly and welcoming. Would definitely stay again.

We booked last minute whilst in the area for a weekend of walking as wanted somewhere comfy and cosy to relax in - we were not disappointed. From a friendly and helpful checkin and intro, to the milk and tea/coffee tray to the sherry in the room everything here is about those little touches that make a stay away special! The bedroom was really nicely decorated and the bed! The bed was amazing - we slept so well! Breakfast was fabulous - you choose what you’d like the night before and it was delicious, fresh, local and yummy! Highly recommend and will certainly be back!

Excellent hotel & hosts, very clean and tidy, breakfast was freshly prepared, at the minute there not doing evening meals, but not a problem as there are plenty of places to eat , all within walking distance of the hotel, the room i had was up 2 flights of stairs, not a problem for me, but you may wish to ask for a 1st floor room

Really friendly hosts, we turned up soaked nearly four hours early due to a recent storm (traveling by motorcycle). They didn't bat an eyelid and booked us in streight away. You can even take your own drinks into the bar (at the moment) as well. Breakfast was excellent.

A very enjoyable stay.

Very nice stay with personable hosts. Room was clean, comfortable, and quiet. Very convenient for visiting the town and castle.

Fantastic place to stay, very welcoming and comfortable in a beautiful town.
