Overnight stay at The New Inn near Ilminster.

The hosts were most welcoming and we enjoyed a lovely overnight stay. We had an excellent evening meal, plus a delicious breakfast with best bacon I have ever tasted! The atmosphere in the pub in the evening was very friendly and just as a village pub should be full of locals.

Friendly staff and a reasonable breakfast. However, the room was dirty, the bathroom looked very tired and the toilet hadn’t been cleaned properly.
