“This historic establishment in Dunster balances its ancient character with a comfortable, well-maintained interior. Friendly staff consistently impress, particularly in accommodating dietary needs, though the evening menu's vegetarian choices can be limited. Parking presents a challenge in the tightly-knit village, but the hotel's prime location near the castle and its cozy bar areas remain significant draws.”
