Hidden gem

It's a bit far from the town centre but there's a quite decent Indian restaurant in the neighbourhood. The host was very kind and flexible to accommodate my requests.

Confortable, friendly B&B

Mike was friendly and welcoming. The bed was comfortable and the room clean and quirky. Fresh milk in a little fridge was very welcome. The double en suite room is "intimate" - alright to share with a spouse of many years but not with others - shower has clear glass and is directly off the bedroom. It could be better to book the room with private bathroom and take a bathrobe if you are shy! As advertised there are eggs available but no other cooked breakfast.

Wonderful stay!

Had a lovely stay at No 71. Warm welcome and lots of tips on where to go for eating/drinking and what to do with our time. Such as the Great West steam train to see Dunster castle and Minehead.

This is how B&B should B

Went to a family funeral. The hosts could not have been more friendly and helpful. Rooms are really well specced but bed not great if you are a longun! Slight warning, clear shower door opens into room, so you see all and sundry - not usually a problem but shared with adult son :D About 15 minute stroll into walk. Great garden. Would def stay here again.

Good for parking. 15 mins walk to town centre but Mike kindly drove me in on arrival. On a fairly busy road but not a problem for me. No cooked breakfast but that is made clear in booking info.

My stay was very good. Nice bb owners and nice clean and comfortable room. The big problem was the breakfast. I paid £60 and should have been offered a cookef breakfast. I had a bowl of cerial and then toast and jam. Not good value for my money
