“My stay revealed remarkably spacious rooms, some boasting balconies that catch river views and the distant outline of Glastonbury Tor. The in-room breakfast setup, with replenished fruit, muesli, and juices, allows for a leisurely start to the day. Even situated above a pub, the quiet atmosphere ensured a restful night, and the pub's commitment to locally sourced ingredients shines through its excellent food.”
