The Walnut Tree is an ideal hotel as a stop-off between destinations, if you need a break when driving a long distance. We needed a base to visit other Somerset places and the like, and chose it for convenience and its proximity to motorway and cross-country routes and its excellent over-night parking, for which it was very good. While the food was also very good (breakfast was included in our rate - evening meal had to be booked ahead, but was also very good), the area was devoid of walkable restaurants for variety and only had takeaways.

Great stop off after our holiday in Cornwall. Good disabled facilities and easy access to hotel. Excellent evening meal but note that if you are arriving late they close the kitchen promptly at 9.30pm. We would have ordered a sweet but were told that kitchen had closed. Would have been good if they had asked us if we wanted a sweet so we could put an order in before the kitchen closed. Would definitely stay here again and perhaps for more than one night to explore the area around Bridgewater.

The room was great, although it would have been better if there had been a fan. I visited during a heatwave and although there was a large window, a fan would have been much appreciated. The staff were always helpful, and I was grateful for the ice I was given whenever I asked for some.

This was my third time staying at the hotel. It’s a good location with good links to Bridgewater, Western super mare and Taunton. Plenty of parking. The restaurant services a good selection of high quality food with plenty of choices as well as bar with an excellent selection of ales and ciders. The accessible rooms are a good size. Room 16 has a wet room with shower. There is only a hand rail. There is no shower seat and the toilet does not have any grab rails. The staff are very helpful and attentive. It was good to see the same staff as our previous stays last year. Looking forward to returning in the future.

Wonderful stay! My wife and I, from San Francisco, in company with a cousin from Oceanside, California stayed here about three years ago while visiting my Brother, who lives here. I’m here this week to help him celebrate his birthday. It was a surprise for him so I planned to stay in the hotel for three days, not knowing if I would be able to stay at his house or not. The spare bedroom is his art studio normally. The entire staff of the hotel, from check in to restaurant and bar staff to housekeeping are friendly and efficient. The room and bath were spotless and clean.
