Such a lovely place to stay, the house is so interesting. Patricia the owner made us feel really welcome and the standard of everything provided was very high. Everything we could have asked for was provided, so many little touches which showed care and attention to detail. Great breakfast with lots of local produce and really comfortable room.

The house was beautiful and the host fabulous. The location is really good too only being a few miles away from Cheddar and 12 miles away from Western Super Mare. There's a couple of pubs in the medieval square that sell good food and only a 5 minute walk from Compton House.

Incredible Place with a fantastic host.

Patricia was wonderful. Made us feel exceptionally welcome. On arrival we were even offered a complimentary local ale (which was delicious). The room was cute, clean and as you would expect from a house that's approaching it's 400th birthday. If we're ever down that way again, we'll be staying there.
