An older venue but with comfortable bed and good breakfast.|The shower in our room #2 had no pressure and the head loose so not fit for purpose. We were told, by way of excuse, of low water pressure from the mains but water from adjacent taps was fine. We also had a broken chair in that room.

This place could use cleaning and modernizing. Very dated looking and needs work. It is NOT in Glastonbury but in Meare. The town had no pubs or restaurants or shops. We ran out of TP in the room and couldn't find any help getting another roll. Breakfast was okay. Parking was on the premises.

Beautiful breakfast in the morning, individually prepared. Nice large room and bed. The manor is in a small village but not a long drive to great restaurants and Glastonbury. Graham and the breakfast staff were very friendly and accommodating.

The best breakfast I have ever had in a hotel and I have stayed in plenty of 5 star hotels around the world. The beds were really comfortable and the white Egyptian cotton bedding was fresh and clean adding to the comfort of the bed. …
