We celebrated our son’s 30th birthday at Lanes last night. There were 28 of us. The food was outstanding - the ones who had the roast beef saying it was the best they had. staff were very friendly and went above and beyond to ensure we had a good time. Thank you Lanes for a fantastic evening.

My fourth time staying at this marvellous little hotel. Every time such an effort has been made to welcome me that I felt it deserved a write up. My parents live locally - I obviously don’t. …

I stayed at Lanes with my girlfriend and dog. They provided a welcome pack for our dog, and the room was immaculate, nicely decorated, and comfortable. The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming. The food was outstanding, and the grounds are well kept and scenic. I can’t wait to return.

Nice looking hotel with well maintained grounds. Rooms were spacious, clean and nicely designed. Sadly everything we liked about the hotel was ruined by what I can put down to poor management and communication.We were not pre-warned, communicated to or given a heads-up that there was a wedding party during our stay and we could have made other arrangements. As a result, loud music all the way until midnight. The wedding crew must have been metal fans as track after track was topped off with "Down with the Sickness" blaring out at 11:45pm which I thought was quite funny.Breakfast was a little under par in terms of quality. Surprisingly there were nice little jam jars and butter on the table but we were told they did not have any toast.

Lovely hotel in a very nice setting let down by it's food.I had the chicken supreme.Very nice chicken but totally over powered by masses of onion in the salad. Others in the group had the duck breast. Again nice meat but let down by the ceasar salad... instead of delicate flavour of mashed anchovies in the dressing, they were whole fish and very little if any parmesan.

Wonderful hotel with great views over the garden, bed really comfy and bathroom clean. The staff are friendly and polite, the food delicious and served piping hot, nothing was too much trouble. Only negative was small spa closed down and slight dripping tap in bathroom but nothing major would definitely stay again.

Stayed there for one night on a business trip to Yeovil. Absolutely beautiful cute little hotel, friendly, upretentious staff, nice rooms, pretty traditional English common areas, and a great restaurant with decent vegan choices. The pictures don't do it justice, it feels much more upscale in person.

I got married here on 8th June, and I have to say I couldn't recommend Lanes enough! All staff were amazing! We bought all of our own decorations which Danni, the wedding co-ordinator decorated the room, and she couldn't have done a better job, it looked perfect and just as we wanted, for 'the wedding that wasnt a wedding'!We didn't have a photographer but Dyl took some incredible pictures for us, and for that we couldn't be more grateful, food was lovely, room was clean with a great view, it honestly couldn't have been better! 🥰
