We stayed for one night at Compton House and booked the Panel Room. What a beautiful house and the Panel Room made us feel very special. It really felt like stepping back in time, but with enough mod cons to make it a lovely comfortable stay. The bed was incredibly comfortable and having shutters at the windows kept out lots... More

Amazing house - I can't wait to have an excuse to go back. The room was beautful, the breakfast excellent and the owner very welcoming. All very good value too. I wish we had more time to explore the house and the garden. A must for anyone visiting the area.

This really is a stunning house and the views from the back rooms are to die for. Patricia was very welcoming and made us a lovely tray of tea when we arrived. Breakfast was a little disappointing. Lovely cereals. yoghurt, toast with tasty preserves and fruit. The toaster sounded as quirky as the house...it only toasts on one side!!! Cooked... More

Don't get me wrong in that what ever I write this is a great place to stay and you can't fault the owner/ host who is very attentive but allows you to feel like its a home from home and you come and go as you please. If big rooms, great breakfast, views, location, gardens etc are for you for... More

My daughter bought me a two night stay for two for my birthday (groupon deal). I have just returned and wanted to share my experience. What a lovely relaxing stay, we didnt have to travel far coming from South Wales. Compton House, a georgian property, is situated on the edge of Axbridge, a quiet little town with just a few... More

Returned to Compton House - stayed there once before, were looking for an excuse to go back. Welcomed by Patricia as old friends, tea in front of the fire on arrival, stayed in the Panel Room, unique in many ways, breakfast in front of the fire in the morning. Looking for the next excuse to return in the summer.

Just spent 2 nights at the wonderful elegant hotel. The owner patricia could not do enough for us. Food good and the chine service was delightful. I felt like Lord Grantham in the breakfast room, so wonderfully English. Axbridge itself is beautiful and a must for a visit. Highly recommend.

We bought a group on deal, but was worth alot more. Lovely lady Patricia couldn't do enough but not over powering. Food was excellent( breakfast). So much character and so comfortable. Would love to go back in late spring or summer. Views to die for from the back of the hotel. Highly reccomend.

My partner and came across Compton House Hotel whilst looking for a break in our journey to Cornwall. It was an amazing find. We were made very welcome, the house is beautiful and charming, as is the hostess Patricia. We had a delicious home cooked meal of soup, fish pie, apple tart and cheese, all of which you would be...
