The hotel was great realy... our only moan is the steep staircase to the second floor, where unfortunately for us was where our room was. We are both elderly. Other than that it was a lovely place with lovely staff and a great breakfast.

Nice hotel for rural long weekend

Wiveliscombe is a small town a few miles west of Taunton with a distinctly rural feel. The hotel is in the centre and has its own car park. The building is old and certainly characterful. Our room was at the back, reached by a bit of a maze of stairs and passages (no lift but not a problem for us) and was clean, warm and well maintained. The bed seemed slightly hard. Both the room and en suite were a good size and the shower worked well. Breakfast was a continental buffet with a reasonable variety of items on offer. We had dinner in the hotel restaurant two nights. Food quality was very good but menu was limited. There is a pub over the road (the Bear) which serves food but we did not try it. I liked the bar which served local ciders and beers. Staff were pleasant and helpful. We rode on the West Somerset (steam) railway, their Bishops Lydeard station is about a quarter of an hour’s easy drive away. The White Hart is a nice alternative to chain hotels in the Taunton area

Terrible

Advertised as having a restaurant with breakfast included. Not serving food and nowhere local to get a meal. There is a pub over the road but it was rammed and had no tables so went hungry. I arrived down for breakfast at 07:45 and it was still closed. Rooms where in very poor condition

Stay at White Hart

Thought restaurant area was ok...continental breakfast ok but would be nice to have a cooked option. Room below par. Bed small and no mattress topper! Dusty under bed floor. Bathroom window had no blind so a little exposed when light on! Noise outside on saturday night terrible. Didnt sleep.

This is an old coaching inn, which should have rung a few bells! It was a bit like a rabbit warren - so many nooks & crannies! Our room was at the top of the house which involved climbing a lot of very steep stairs. Our room was adequate with a comfy bed, nice clean white sheets & towels. No hair dryer, but not the end of the world!

room 3 was nice and clean and had everything that was needed . The shower could have done with a bit more power but as it is an old place it is understandable. The staff were excellent and friendly and the breakfast was a continental style and was very good indeed.

Recommended, decent pub accommodation!

Good location, lovely town, parking a bonus, although there's also lots of free parking in the town as well. Old building, so slightly quirky and old fashioned accommodation but I actually liked that. Clean, superb bed. Room I was in was above road, so it was a bit noisy with deliveries etc the following morning, but again, didn't detract from my stay, personally. Staff were absolutely lovely, including in the bar, and drinks were a sensible price. Breakfast was a continental style one, but very tasty and more than enough to start the day. Overall, very good value for the money, I'd say, especially on a deal like I had from a booking site (very late making a decision, so perhaps they were keen not to have empty rooms?)
