Charmless hotel that is simply a room for the night, if you need to be in the area. To be fair, the rooms are well maintained, and clean. The breakfast is pretty poor, with pre cooked then microwaved food, do it yourself cups of tea from a village hall type tea boiler, and DIY toast. All in all, not worth... More

The new management made our stay very enjoyable. Good friendly service. Great food - big portions! Very clean and comfortable. Best room rate in area. Excellent location for Longleat and Cheddar Gorge. Recommended. More

We have just returned from a 2 night stay at the Highwayman Inn and cannot believe it is the same one as described on here. We were warmly welcomed by a staff member and shown to our room which was very clean and welcoming (we had asked for a walk in shower and was given one). There was an information... More

Everything the earlier reviewers have said is true,no exaggeration the atmosphere is frosty,the breakfast was burned ,only small window for breakfast7-8.30. There was no orange juice for breakfast,tea was weak,long life milk,no spread offered,toast was dried up crust. The car park is dark,huge and empty. We were given a groud floor,disabled room without checking with us ,there was faecal waste... More

I visited the Highwayman Inn recently for a 30th birthday party. The party was held in the bar area and a few of us stayed overnight in the rooms. Overall it was an enjoyable evening but if I had not been there for a party I would definitely be leaning towards a lower rating. The rooms themselves were pretty basic... More

Such a shame, this hotel (owned by the Relaxinnz chain) has just gone down and down hill. We have just returned from a weekend stay whilst at the Bath and West Showground. This hotel has yet another new landlord George and his sister(did not get her name), Andy and Dave have gone to pastures new. On arrival we were shown... More

The Highwayman Inn near Wells in Somerset, is run by Andy & Cath, who will give you just about the warmest welcome you could possibly get. The Inn is also very welcoming as are the locals, something you do not always see up and down the county. I stayed in Room 7 just a few days before Christmas 2011, so... More

If I could rate this below poor then I would every time. A truly awful hotel. Cheap and nasty food but not at cheap prices served by ignorant staff who wouldn't know a happy face if it jumped up and bit them. The rooms are tiny and tired looking. The managers laugh in your face if you even comment on... More
