This was an ideal work/personal break trip, such a lovely friendly hotel, always happy to help and to make my stay very enjoyable. Food was well cooked, service was always with a smile and the room was clean and comfortable. A good location to explore the area, if you’re a walker then this couldn’t be better. I’d happily return, and I will given the opportunity.

It had a warm friendly feeling of a home environment! Suzanne was the perfect host. I had a family emergency to deal with whilst I was there and she really looked out for me. The room itself was spotlessly clean it was spacious with a beautiful bathroom with a separate bath and shower. It had a small fridge and a separate heater if you felt cold. I couldn’t recommend this property highly enough!

We stayed in this beautiful house while attending a wedding at nearby Quantock Lakes. Tina met us and showed us round and explained the history of the place and future plans which sound very exciting! Our bedroom was beautiful and comfortable. In the morning we had the fabulous breakfast that was included in cost. Fresh fruit, granola, yoghurts , pastries- simply delicious.
We enjoyed our stay and would return fondly!

Lovely village, would have liked to explore the village and Quantocks a little more but the weather was against us. Nice place to stay for some fantastic rambles and horse riding. We stayed and ate at the Ancient Mariner, very comfortable and amazing food, hospitality and staff.

It's a nice village with a few choices to eat. The main road itself is quite busy during the day and parking spaces are at a minimum. There are many walks to be had and Nether Stowey itself is a good stop off if you are travelling to Cornwall.

We enjoyed every minute at the hotel. Carol is so friendly and the food is delicious.
All the staff were so friendly and helpful.
The room was ideal and a good size for two retrievers as well.
I only booked a few days before we were due to visit, so lucky to get a room at such short notice!I
Carol opened the pool early in the morning so I had a very invigorating swim which set me up for the rest of the day.
The views are stunning and the gardens are so pretty.
Plenty of room for the dogs to enjoy walking around the grounds.
Definitely be back.
Thank you so much to all the staff at Castle of Comfort xx

Nether Stowey is an ideal location for walking in the Quantock Hills and there are lots of walking maps available.
Being a bird watcher I visited Steart Marshes which is a lovely bird reserve.
In the town here is the Nether Stowy castle which is worth a visit but be aware there is no building just the foundations at the top o a hill but lovely views of the are.

Really depends on personal preference.
Really depends on personal preference. We were on the trail of Coleridge and Wordsworth so for us it was ideal.
Generally the area is scenically varied and beyond magnificent in places, offering excellent walking and biking with close proximity to the north Somerset coast and the county town Taunton.
There is also a rich history and many interesting features to be discovered in the area, of which Culbone Church and Steart Marshes deserve special mention.
We will look forward to returning when opportunity permits.
Our room was the Castle Room and it was amazing, really luxurious and very clean- it even had a coffee maker! Breakfast was delicious, we are both vegetarians and were served homemade bread and veggie choices, different both days and much more interesting than the usual veggie fare. The Old Cider House is ideal for day trips into the Quantocks and we did a lot of walking. Our hosts were friendly and happy to give advice on walks and things to do. Jasper the dog was always ready for cuddles and a happy greeting!
situated in a traditional village beside the Quantock Hills near our wedding destination. The Ancient Mariner has a homely atmosphere, wonderfully spacious bedrooms and it is clean. It serves a well presented traditional cooked breakfast. Although the kitchen had closed by the time we arrived, they had prepared sandwiches on our request and had added a delicious fresh green salad which was beautifully presented.
Staff homely, attentive and responsive
My Wife and myself were totally pleased with the Castle of Comfort Hotel in Nether Stowey, Carol the Manager and the Waitresses could not do enough for you and were so friendly and accommodating. The rooms were spotless and the staff all wore face masks, the food was fantastic, both Break Fast and the Evening Meal was fantastic, well presented tasty and plentiful, the rooms were spotless and we enjoyed the whole week there.
The overall look of the hotel from the outside and it's location. The cosy feel and the friendliness of all the staff.
Complimentary tea and cakes on arrival was very welcome and a lovely touch as was the complimentary cocktail on the first evening . The extra touches in our room,eg sherry ,a bottle of water.A plentiful tray with tea,coffee and hot chocolate and a tea pot too!
The location was absolutely perfect for the walking and bird watching that we wanted to do in our break. The Old House, Nether Stowey is on the main street of the small town and the moment we arrived we were delighted to find a large courtyard for off road parking and behind that an acre of garden with lovely lawns, beautiful flowers and seating for visitors.
There's nothing not to like at The Old House. History is seamlessly blended with updated living. The suite is roomy & well outfitted; fresh flowers a lovely treat! The gardens are a true delight - both flower & vegetable. Hosts serve a delicious breakfast & provide excellent recommendations for things to do & places to eat. We'd definitely stay here again.
Everything about this B&B is just amazing - the location in the stunning Quantock Hills, the fabulous historical room, the beautiful walled garden and the wonderful cooked breakfast. There was so much attention to detail and the hosts were delightful. My husband and I are already planning a much longer stay at The Old House. Highly recommend.
The area around Nether Stowey is particularly beautiful to me, as it should be to anyone with sentience. The hosts were fairly friendly and breakfast was pretty solid. A nice touch was them having a fridge with drinks for sale for guests. There's a restaurant down the road that serves an excellent curry (when they're actually serving food).
The hotel is lovely. A lovely period building that looks great on the inside and out. The setting is amazing, with rolling fields surround the hotel. Breakfast was great, and one of the best things was the staff! They were all incredibly helpful, caring and friendly. Just an excellent stay all round.
The cottage is very comfortable and central in terms of being in the centre of Nether Stowey village and near the Quantock hills and coast. The hosts are very welcoming and thoughtful about the differing heating and bedding needs of our small party. The cottage is well equipped.
Our room was large with a large bathroom. We were able to store our mountain bikes in our room which was ok. TV worked well, Wi-fi a bit limited when busy but Nether Stowey is a small village. The staff were friendly and helpful.
What an amazing little treasure! Great staff, excellent atmosphere, great room for four adults! Fabulous food, WiFi, parking. Would highly recommend this pub lodging and a trip through Nether Stowey!!
very friendly staff. lovely hotel. they allowed us to check in earlier as we had a wedding which was really lovely of them. the breakfast was also delicious and the room was great
The Old House was perfect for a weekend stay. Our room was large and thoughtfully decorated and the host was friendly, helpful, and accommodating throughout our stay.
