We have used this hotel on several occasions to break a journey from the north-west to Cornwall. Where it was made to feel welcome and have enjoyed larger than average rooms, easy parking and superb dinners and breakfast. The hotel is very conveniently placed for the motorway and seems to be progressively improving the accommodation.

I enjoyed my 1 night stay. It was in a very convenient location between Bridgewater and Taunton, had very helpful staff and good food. Bed was comfortable. The extra perk was the location is near to Pyne’s which is a super farm shop.

This is our second stay at this wonderful hotel, the staff are so welcoming and the food is amazing, we were quite late arriving this time but we were still able to eat in the restaurant and never felt like we were being rushed. We look forward to our stay next year 😊

The hotel looked tired and of need of an update. The room was a lovely size but again it looked tired and in need of an update. The food was great but on one occasion we sat for over 3 and a half hours to just have a 2 course evening meal, service was very poor. It looked like they were very under staffed in the kitchen. But all in all a relaxing stay was had.

The room and ensuite were spacious and well appointed. Bed was excellent and room was clean. Large wardrobe for hanging. Bring an older hotel the floor was very noisy to walk on and the stairs were narrow which may cause some concern.

The food at The Walnut Tree is excellent as is the service and the staff. The hotel is showing its age a bit in the bedroom but it was nonetheless very clean and the bed was very comfortable. The room and the water in the bathroom were both very warm. The restaurant is worth a visit even if you’re not staying overnight.
