Special Christmas
Christmas is always particularly special at the Castle with staff having made a very special effort to make it even more special than usual. It makes an excellent place to stay, right in the middle of Taunton, for shopping with those special independent traders you won’t find elsewhere.

A most relaxed and enjoyable stay.
We had a most enjoyable stay. The friendliness of the staff was exceptional. They went to a lot of trouble to find us an alternative place for dinner as they were fully booked. Also they checked our trains to make sure they were still running without being asked. This was beyond expectations. The breakfast was great. Plenty of choice and a relaxed atmosphere.
