Recent Reviews
"We feel fortunate to have the opportunity to write about the Old Vic, Bridgwater Somerset. Firstly, they should have a name change to the 3E's Hotel , standing for an Eclectic, Exceptional Enclave. Secondly, if you have to suffer a cruel and unusual punishment otherwise known as the M5 motorway we refuse to believe that there exists a more calming and accessible interlude to one's journey than this place.
Once through the door you enter an oasis of hospitality evident from the on-site owners to every single staff members commitment to the well-being of the guest and their dogs should they have one. If you get the chance book it, we know we shall again without hesitation."
"Absolutely amazing stay, Peter, Candy and all the staff made us very welcome right from the off and we were really surprised the amount of detail they go to in order to make your stay a special one. Being vegan you never know quite what to expect but the Old Vicarage had an excellent menu and the spare ribs were absolutely delicious. Our room and the hotel itself is spotlessly clean.
This place was the most dog friendly hotel we have ever stayed at. There was a bowl, blanket and treats in the room for our boy Tyzer who also got lots of attention from the staff. Tyzer also got on really well with the lovely hotel hound Ben. We really loved our time here, thank you all, we can’t wait to return."
