Although we didn't have an evening meal here, we had a lovely cooked breakfast. We were able to have a drink in the bar before we went to our family gathering. The bed was very comfortable and we loved the large bath towels in the huge bathroom. The room was very quiet and exceptionally clean with coffee and tea facilities. The bar and restaurant area were clean and had a good atmosphere. All the staff were very friendly and accommodating. We would certainly stay here again if we were in the area.

    Delightfully old town especially Silver Street with its old shops, market square and fine church. Highlight was revisiting Sweet Surprise, which is still run as it did many years ago - charity tea room/sweet shop/bakery/ arts and crafts souvenirs.

    The North Street Annexe was perfect to stay at, close to the shops but in a quiet area. The Shrubbery is a great place too, the meals there are great, I would recommend the restaurant. The Cheesecake shop is supposed to be good but doesn’t open until Thursdays. The shops are a good mix too. Some lovely independent shops. You can get everything you need on the high street.

    Well not so much ilminster itself as a head to place but the area in General has much to offer and not just Meusems or Churches We visited Cheddar Gorge and other nearbye Towns and seaside Villages, visiting some Great Brocant's where it's hard to say no to that additional piece of clutter.

    We chose Ilminster as it was fairly close to the M5 but not too far from Lyme Regis, where we were visiting the following day. We didn't spend time in Ilminster, just used the hotel as a overnight stop, but it looked characterful and was a great location to other attractions, including Lyme Regis.

    Sarah and all the staff were very welcoming and our meal in the evening was delicious. The room was warm enough with good facilities. It had a lovely atmosphere in the bar and there wasn't any noise reaching upstairs. Parking was easy and the roads were quiet.. Communication was great prior to arrival. We will happily stay again next time we are in the area. Thank you all for a relaxing stay.

    The Barrington Boar is a dream of a country pub: a good bar area for those not eating, and spacious restaurant, all beautifully decorated in the lovely old building. The rooms built onto the back are very comfortable and quiet.

    Ideal for my overnight stay in the area. Everything I needed. Close to the town centre and shops. Comfortable bed and the breakfast was sufficient for me - cereals, fruit, bread, jam and orange juice.
