Yesterday was my first visit to the Farthings, my company had booked a days meeting room. What a perfect venue, at arrival we were greeted with fresh coffee, tea and freshly baked pastries, all the facilities we need were provided, projector and screen. the coffee flowed, the lunch was lovely and fresh. When we returned to the meeting room for... More

This is over priced and over-rated. The portion size is minimal and the service slow. Breakfast not until 8.30, that's if they bother to show up! The owner/manager is aloof, uncaring and supercillious and is not approachable. I advise anyone who is thinking of going there to avoid it like the plague. Go to a Premier Inn near Taunton instead,... More

Despite 2 reviews to the contrary we have stayed here twice now on the way down to a Cornwall holiday and have been delighted with our experience - in fact enjoyed it more second time around. Food was great, atmosphere and comfort even better - despite our visit being 2 years apart we were given the same room-which was extremely... More

We booked here as it was listed as "dog friendly" and initially seemed to be so. The cottage, although decorated in "poor taste 1980s" had a shared but lovely garden for the dogs to romp in. Small problems we were more than prepared to overlook: for instance the kitchen floor was covered in dirt and coffee as was the washing... More

This is described as 'Dog friendly', it is not. You are expected to be with your dogs 24/7, so not much of a holiday for you! unless you like leaving your dogs in the car. The food whilst fairly good is very,very expensive as are the drinks. You have to make your own toast for breakfast and the 'full' English... More

A wonderful small country house hotel ideally located 10 minutes off the M5 (between the M5 and the A303) for breaking that long trip down to Cornwall. Extremely comfortable rooms in the centre of the quiet village of Hatch Beauchamp. Dinner is available if required at reasonable cost. Attentive service. Dog friendly. Lovely walks into the countryside on your doorstep. More

We stayed here at short notice on a stop over on our way to Devon. The man who greeted us at reception was very friendly. We had booked a double room, but were given a large cottage next to the hotel instead. It had a kitchen, ensuite double bedroom, sitting room and conservatory. The kitchen was especially useful for preparing... More
