Perfect!

A beautiful clean hotel in the middle of nowhere which made it even better! Travelled down for a wedding at Pennard Farm and didnt know what to expect but a really lovely place. Staff were really friendly and welcoming and breakfast was beautiful. A truly pleasant stay.

The food was delicious and the staff went out of their way to meet our needs and make our stay as comfortable as possible. The cleaning staff were very helpful and friendly, as were all the staff. This was our first visit but it certainly won't be our last. Thank you all very much.

Very good but could be a little better

First, the good: excellent value for a 5* hotel in this area. Room was fine, service was excellent. Breakfast was very good. The service provided at reception (Prashant) and he came and fixed the TV which was, initially, not working. Similarly service at breakfast (Anaiya & Max) was also excellent and friendly. Both groups couldn't do enough to help. Next, the could do better: signposting from car park to reception could be clearer (I walked all round the building dragging my suitcase). Washbasin would not empty, so I left it full each day - although emptied, it was not fixed during my 6 night stay. Would I come again ? YES

Crossways is a gem of a hotel with wonderful views of Glastonbury Tor and the surrounding countryside. The beds are comfortable and Internet access is very good. Everywhere is very clean and the staff are generally very good. There was just one morning when the staff lost track of who still needed to order their breakfasts. Talking of tracks the road to the hotel from Pilton is single track but it is worth the care needed to get there.

Crossways, pricey but good value.

You get what you pay for, oh okay its not got lovely gardens to walk through but the hotel building, the service, friendliness of the staff is good. The view from the Terrace bar over the rural landscape of the Somerset levels to Glastonbury Torr lovely. The breakfasts, and evening meal a little pricey but well presented, lovely flavours and great tastes. 3 to 4 days as a base to explore... good spot..... thoroughly recommend.... and boy are we fussy.
