Thatched Cottage Map

Thatched Cottage is a beautiful Grade II Listed restaurant and inn at the heart of the Mendips.

Refurbished and re-thatched, it now combines the traditional look with the highest modern standards.

With 8 luxury en suite bedrooms, part of the Thatched Cottage is 340 years old.

Striking original features can be seen throughout, such as open fireplaces in the restaurant.

Friendly, helpful and enthusiastic staff add an old fashioned style of service to make your stay that little bit more enjoyable.

The Thatched Cottage has a 4-star rating by the English Tourist Council and by the AA.

In addition, the AA have awarded the restaurant a Rosette.

A conference/meeting room for 28 to 45 people is available, ideal for wedding receptions, business meetings and private parties.The Thatched Cottage is an old inn and, as you would expect, sits alongside a road, the A361.

In fact on the end of the grounds sits Turnpike Cottage, another listed building, which extracted fees from traffic using the road to and from Frome in the 18th century.

Today it is staff accommodation.

We have double glazed all the rooms and the vast majority of our guests are not disturbed by the muted traffic noise.

If you think this might be an issue please request a rear facing room and we will do our best to accommodate you.

Part of the hotel, the area under the thatched roof and done in the traditional way using wheat reed by local craftsman, is over 340 years old and originally consisted of four cottages.

The second half was added some 35 years ago when the building’s use changed from restaurant to Inn.

Many of the original features have been retained in the rooms.

However the limitations imposed by our Grade II listing prohibit provision for wheelchairs.

From the outside the building is deceptive both in size and character.

It has been likened to a Tardis.

We have eight rooms, all en suite, a two level restaurant, a function conference room that takes 36 and our bar area.

The contemporary open plan bar is elegant and light with its oak beams/wall paneling, wooden flooring and luxurious cream walls.

Paintings were created for the design by Andrew Hennan, a well known local artist.

The striking features continue through to the restaurant, seating 52, with two open fireplaces; an adult dining experience not to be missed.

With a selection of 40ish different wines and champagnes to choose from, you will probably find something delicious to complement your meal.

Using local produce Fabrice and Madan are creating dishes that are a pleasure to behold and a joy to eat.

The superior rooms have separate double showers.

Key cards are provided to enable use of the rear entrance at your convenience for business or pleasure.

Checkout time is on or before 11.00am
