Dining

The Swan's restaurant serves a seasonally inspired menu by a renowned executive chef, with ingredients sourced from Somerset. An extensive wine and gin selection, including local craft beers, is available at the long bar with an open fire. A pop-up bakery operates twice a week, offering homemade pies and bread for guests to purchase.

Rooms

Each of the seven en-suite bedrooms has a unique vintage interior design, featuring traditional roll-top baths in several rooms. Some rooms include a coffee machine and a choice of pillows, while all offer free toiletries and a flat-screen TV with cable channels. The quirky decor and antique-style furniture distinguish each room from standard hotel accommodations.

Pet-Friendly

Dogs are allowed in both the rooms and public bar areas, with a dedicated pet station providing treats and a toy upon arrival. The staff can prepare extra sausages for dogs at breakfast, and the outdoor garden is accessible for dog walks. A doggy welcome pack includes a box of treats and a small toy.
