What guests say
I stayed here for two weeks while working. I had to be away from my baby for the first time in doing so. I was nervous about the logistics around how I would store milk while I was away from her as I’m a breastfeeding mum. The staff ahead of time ensured I had a fridge in my room, and for the supply I needed to freeze the staff organised it so I could store it with them. I was coming down multiple times a day, and every time, the staff was ready to help. They knew who I was, and what I needed without any explanation and prompt… we even had a running joke that I was the milk lady! The staff were so friendly, so helpful and an utter joy to deal with. What was previously filled with dread and anticipation became a very easy process and actually a joy. I ate at the premises twice a day often, and the food was exemplary (breakfast fab, burgers very generous, duck salad delicious, nachos were amazing with loads of toppings) The pool and facilities were a real luxury too, especially when working away. Rooms clean with efficient air con. What started as a real ‘do I have to go’ turned out to be a lovely break, all with the lovely help of the Holiday Inn staff so thank you.

Chose this place for a mini-break. What a great location to easily explore the south of Somerset. Glastonbury, Wells, Shepton Mallet and Taunton all nearby. The hotel itself has a swimming pool, exactly what we needed to cool of each evening after days out in 32 to 35 degrees heat! Breakfast was very good as well.
