Hotels near Downside Abbey

"Lovely clean rooms and very comfortable beds. The shower riser rail needed replacing in one room as we had to hold the showerhead in order to use it. But water was hot and plentiful. Lots of parking available and electric car charge points too. Despite being near the main road the room was very quiet and no traffic noise heard. Staff were helpful although mixup on first morning with who was working so breakfast slightly delayed. 2nd day was much better with decent breakfast (but please don't put black pepper on everything!) Overall a lovely stay and conveniently located for us. We hope to return in the future."

"Lovely place. "

"Quite simply one of the best places we've stayed at. We chose this place for its location being within easy reach of a number of places we wanted to visit in Somerset - Cheddar Gorge, Shepton Mallet prison, and of course Bristol itself. The rooms are clean and modern, very comfortable and quiet. Plenty of attached parking, and the pub itself is cosy and welcoming. We had dinner there for one of the 3 nights we stayed, the food was excellent - I really enjoyed the Mexican-style burger, all the usual pub favourites are of course available. The breakfast was sumptuous, unlike other places where its normally a set option, we were given the choice from a separate breakfast menu - I enjoyed the 'full Temple', my partner enjoyed a spinach & cheese omelette. And most of all, the owners Adam & Lee were really friendly and wanted to ensure we were looked after, as were the bar staff and the lady serving breakfast in the morning. When we visit Somerset again we will definitely stay again - thanks very much!"

"Very nice and clean place! Fantastic communication with the host who couldn’t do enough for us! Superb setting and will definitely be looking at going back again!"

"We had a great family room and the staff were so friendly and helpful! We also ate in the train carriage and it was great. Really nice place. "

"QUite old fashioned and our room smelled of wet dog, which was off-putting. Bed was really not good quality or comfortable, it was more like a water bed. Amenities are basic and sharign one bathrom between at least 6 rooms is not great. The woman beind the bar was lovely and friendly, but apart from that it was very average I'm afraid."

"Beautiful and relaxing stay at Montigo Resorts over Easter. The staff were friendly and helpful, the property and the grounds are beautiful. The spa was really special, not busy and a real treat. Breakfast was plentiful and not too busy. We'd definitely come back!"

"First impression was worn out star carpet but then walked on excellent carpet in corridors. Bedroom spacious and well equipped but chair with plain wooden seat not very comfotable. Bathroom very good but the 'stylish' basin taps handles are nearly round, making them difficult for older/weaker hands. No lift."

"Loved this place, everyone was friendly and food was great "
