Beautiful accommodation for a Longleat visit

We booked this accommodation for its close proximity to Longleat Safari Park but it proved to be a good choice for many more reasons - the room was stylish and comfortable, the breakfast was lovely, the venue was a peaceful location but simultaneously close to main roads for easy travelling. Within the grounds was a large fishing lake which is a lovely walk and there is woodand further back to walk in if desired. We loved it and would definitely return if we were in the area.

Another night away.

Clean and friendly. The only things I do not like pre-booked breakfast and I discovered after checking in that the proprietor does not allow alcohol in his premises.

Good hotel room with kettle , tea / coffee facility. Good toilet amenities. Water bottles provided. Bed mattresses a bit on the softer side which some may prefer. Very good breakfast. Could do with some croissants, muffins but had a pancake machine.

Lovely location, rooms and buildings. The surrounding countryside is beautiful and the gardens and park are gorgeous. Welcome and service excellent. We stayed after a visit to Longleat and it was the perfect relaxing stop after a busy day. Only thing that could have made it better would have been if food and drinks were available there in the evening, the cafe closes at 5. We drove to Frome and had an excellent meal in Little Walcot.

Just lovely

Loved our stay at the Lighthouse. We arrived rather late after a full day at Longleat, but it was easy to find and had plenty of parking. Check in was friendly and the room was lovely and impeccably clean. Breakfast was tasty and my gluten/dairy free husband was well catered for and my son couldn’t wait to try out the play area! Just a lovely stay all round. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again the next time we visit the area.

The lighthouse is a lovely large bed and breakfast. Nothing was too much trouble for Rowena who was so helpful and friendly!! The grounds were beautiful and we enjoyed walks with our Labrador in the sunshine. The Decor of the rooms is lovely and so clean and modern. Loved the gold shower room, felt very upmarket hotel rather than a B&B! Our one criticism is that the room was super small, and we hardly had room for our dog plus luggage. It was also very hot despite the velux window being open and a fan. It would be beneficial if there was air conditioning units fitted in the stables rooms for added comfort.
