We stayed for 2 nights with another couple and were made very welcome. The food was good quality and reasonably priced. The service was excellent, nothing was too much trouble. There was a celebration on our first evening but we were given a room that was quiet. Our room was comfortable and clean. We would certainly go there again, if... More

Stayed here for one night as a lone female for a family funeral. Booked a twin room but was offered choice of a double or the twin when I got there. Chose the double and wasn't disappointed. Spacious room, comfy bed, nice bathroom with plenty of towels and was nice and warm. Room 4 was at the front of the... More

My partner & I stayed here mid week in September 2011 for a few days away to celebrate our birthdays. We got a good deal via KGB Deals otherwise we would likely have stayed slightly closer to Cheddar Gorge. The hotel is lovely. We had a large room with a four poster bed. Both the room and bathroom are very... More

We are just back from a lovely break in Somerset/Devon. The hotel is very spacious and the family room was just great - if a tad cold at night. The staff were very attentive and all made us feel very welcome. The breakfast was excellent with good quality products and nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommended! More

I stayed at The Shrubbery recently with my wife. It is set on the main road going into Ilminster and does not look anything special from the outside. Our room was in an extension to the main hotel building, set in the extensive gardens, and was very spacious, clean, and secluded. One thing that struck me was how the hotel... More

I booked this as a Groupon deal, for myself and my friend for a weekend away. The staff were all helpful. I was quite impressed with the outside of the hotel and the views, the twin room we had was fine and the bathroom a really good size. It faced the front, on to the road but double glazing meant...

I have stayed here several times on business and have always found it very good. I took my wife for a break and so she could see the hotel I have to stay when working. The hotel just gets better everytime. The rooms are lovely, spotless and full of character. The staff are all very friendly without being over familiar.... More

First of all, it's confusing to say this hotel is in Taunton - it's in Ilminster which is a very sweet little town close to Taunton. Secondly, I'll get the one bad thing out of the way which is the quality of the beds. The room we were in (no 3) had twin beds with non sprung bases so they... More
