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.

We had a wonderful stay at the New Inn. We stayed in the family room which was perfect for our family. We had a great dinner in the evening and a super breakfast in the morning. It's in a very picturesque village which was lovely to walk around. Recommended!

Overnight in Somerset

Nickie was extremely friendly and helpful with finding taxi companies for us. The full English breakfast was beautifully cooked with nice crispy toast. Regarding cleanliness, I would have given one more star had I not found cobwebs around the window. Overall, good.

So quiet in the depths of the Somerset countryside that there was little noise apart from the birds! Very hospitable, nice food, and a clean and adequately comfortable room. A pleasant night’s stay.

Also, lovely dogs living there. Room clean and comfortable. Great power shower. Great breakfast. Wish we could've stayed longer. Will definitely stay again. Thank you so much.

I missed the obvious door bell to get into The New Inn so phoned and go a speedy response. Breakfast was just what I wanted, hot, well cooked and just the right amount for the older person. The evening meal was very good and I’d picked the vegi option. My only issue, a minor squeaky bathroom door, so once opened it stayed open.

The pub was brilliant and so friendly from first introduction to saying goodbye! The breakfast was delicious and filled a hole. And there were puppies which is an absolute bonus! Couldnt fault it, we were only there for a wedding but we would definitely visit again if we were in the area.
