Stayed overnight to attend a local meeting, the whole experience was good from the booking to departure the day following arrival. Nothing was too much trouble for our hosts who went out of their way to ensure we were booked into a local restaurant and made us familiar with the local area. Delightful breakfast with a clean and comfortable room,... More

This is a most friendly, welcoming and reasonably priced b&b. Our room was £65. The rooms are warm, clean and spacious and the owners do everything to make you feel at home. Excellent breakfast; nicely sited to explore the town and its fine Minster church, off street parking nearby. Barrington Court, the NT's fine 16C mansion and gardens is not... More

Definitely recommended. Lovely house. Very friendly and helpful owners. Excellent choice of breakfast including Eggs Benedict. Location ideal for stays in the centre of Iminster. Would definitely stay here again when visiting Ilminster

Twice in the off-season last year we travelled from the North of Scotland to Ilminster, first to visit a sick relative and after Christmas for her funeral. Herne Lea was a happy find for our first visit and a "no-brainer" for the second. Help "above and beyond" in too many ways to enumerate, comfortable, warm and clean rooms. I need... More

We chose Ilminster as a good stop off place for our journey and this proved to be an excellent choice. We arrived too late to sample the shops unfortunately, however the guest house could not have been better. Our hosts seemed to have considered everything we might possibly want or need. The room was excellent and the bathroom the most... More

Travelling as I do for my work across the country, I stay at many, many establishments. This one is to be commended highly for the warm welcome, the exceptionally well appointed and equipped room and bathroom, the delicious freshly cooked breakfast and the flexibility of the proprietors to fit in with my commitments. Being within easy walking distance of the... More

I visited this excellent guest house with my elderly parents and can only give praise for the way we were welcomed into Mel and Carol's home. The rooms were very fresh and clean and had added touches of fresh fruit and an ample supply of biscuits, tea, coffee etc. The breakfast menu is excellent and all locally sourced. There was... More

This was a wonderful surprise.After traveling across from Padstow and not wanting to leave we stopped off at this lovely Guest house. The hosts were friendly and very well informed of the area, the room was well styled and clean with an amazingly big bathroom. This is well worth the stay and will go back for more.

A warm welcome on arrival, our room immaculate and spacious, the breakfast on offer was far more than we could eat and a good location being a short walk from the town. Would recommend this friendly b & b and I agree with the AA 4 star rating. We were cycling and they were happy to store our cycles safely... More
