    Nothing

    The location is right in the heart of the village but quiet. Car parking at Dunster Deep was £6 per 24 hours and only 5 minutes walk away. The hotel layout is quirky, but has everything you want and the staff were great. The menu was adequate and the food excellent and produced very quickly, especially if you preordered at the time of reservation.

    The bar area at the back of the hotel was a little confined , we opted to go out elsewhere for an evening drink .

    The Hotel is located on the high street in the centre of Dunster , offering easy access by foot to the village and castle . We opted for an evening meal which along with the breakfast were very well presented and great food . The Yarn hotel offered good value for money compared with local hotels .

    Lovely location, excellent food though breakfast menu/buffet was not as extensive as similar hotels. Staff very helpful. No dedicated hotel parking, we were lucky and had no problem, but not sure everyone would be as fortunate.

    Couldn’t park close by. Even the disabled space was taken by a big white van without a badge. I managed to park in car park nearby.

    The property was fine as I expected. The room was nice and I could get the lift to the room as promised as I had a hip problem.

    Excellent location, public car park a few minutes walk away. £6.40 all day. Traditional breakfast available, the cooked one nicely cooked, not greasy and plenty of it. Cereal also available. Staff were very courteous, nothing too much trouble. Asked for mugs for our room instead of the paper ones provided as we were staying for 4 nights - supplied straight away. Bedroom good though bed could have been bigger. Nice hot shower. Everything very clean.

    Stair access a little tricky (room 2). Parking no problem in winter with few cars around in High Street, but in summer could be more difficult.

    Location perfect. Staff excellent. Lovely room with view over the castle and High Street

    Allocating dog friendly rooms at the top of several, steep staircases. Our 12 yr old Spaniel struggled and had to be carried. Not easy.

    My only comment is that rooms are not serviced at all, not even bins emptied due to COVID. This just seems a little outdated now. You can request toiletries, tea, coffee etc, and even a rubbish bag which is then left outside the bedroom door. We were only there a couple of days so it didn't matter.

    Fabulous location looking down on the Yarnmarket. Room was clean and comfortable with tea and coffee making facilities. The breakfast was excellent, with both continental and cooked available. All staff really friendly and helful

    Hotel manager was so lovely and friendly! Always making sure to stop for a chat and showed an interest in the reason we were visiting. We stayed at the hotel for a race near by, the hotel put on a very early self service breakfast for a 5am start which we really appreciated!
