The Garden room is perfect for aperitifs and post-dinner chasers.

Activities

See & Do
There's plenty to do hereabouts. The moors and woodland of Exmoor National Park are close by, as are the tress, temples and trails of Hestercombe Gardens and the Tudor mansion Barrington Court. Dunster is a picture book Somerset village with thatched cottages and a castle, while Glastonbury jostles with little shops selling every kind of charm and scented candle.

Spa pampering
Mount Somerset's small but perfectly equipped Spa has a hydropool, foot spa, sauna, steam room and mini-gym. There's a relaxation room (and outdoor terrace) where you can take refreshments and three treatment rooms offering a varied menu of treatments.
