What can I add that hasn't already been said? We did not want to leave after staying for two nights! It was an absolutely fantastic place to stay in every possible way. The room was beautiful, comfortable, and elegant. The hosts perfectly managed that fine balance of hospitality and respect for privacy. The location is spectacular. More

My wife and I booked here for a 2 nights stay during the West Somerset Railway Gala. We found the place very easily and although parking the car was a bit awkward it was re-assuring to be able to get it off the street. Cliff was the perfect host. The stylish room we stayed in was very clean and tidy.... More

We stayed here in the Summer for a friends wedding and we were absolutely blown away by the standard of accommodation and hospitality we received.

I chose Spears Cross and Dunster purely because of the rave reviews on Tripadvisor. I was not disappointed. Cliff and Trish are wonderful hosts and cannot do enough to help. We were welcomed with a galss of Cliff's homemade cider, which was delicious. We stayed in The Selworthy Suite. Very comfortable with everything we could possibly need. I loved the... More

This was our 14th visit in 5½ years and, as always, everything was perfect. As usual, we had the 2-level Selworthy suite, which makes for more space and privacy. Cleanliness was irreproachable and everywhere still looked brand new. The little extras are much appreciated: bottled water, fruit, tea-making facility, biscuits, decanter of Marsala and even complimentary tea and cake in... More

My husband and I took a 3-day break in glorious Dunster and found Spears Cross a little by accident! Lucky accident. We cannot emphasise enough how much we enjoyed the hospitality, service, food and comfort of this wonderful B&B. We stayed in the Selworthy suite which is a two-room separate suite at the rear of the hotel. I was instantly... More

Spears Cross is a wonderful B&B within an original medieval home. Cliff and Trish provide first class hospitality and always go that extra step to make you feel at home. We'd been on the road for some weeks and Spears Cross was the perfect place to unwind. Highly recommended and will return on my next trip to the UK. More

Group of 8 geriatric walkers. A very demanding group and all very pleased to return to Spears Cross and planning to return next year. Nothing is too much trouble for Trish and Cliff. Wonderful locally sourced food for both breakfast and dinner. We normally take our own wine but Cliff has such a well priced list that we drank from... More

Stayed two nights and from the moment we arrived we were so well looked after. Fantastic location close to the Castle and fine dining or pubs. Very comfortable rooms with some lovely touches especially the carafe by the bedside. Relaxing lounge and so nice to be able to get such a huge selection of pre dinner drinks. Breakfast is to...

Spears Cross is situated very close to the centre of Dunster in the shadow of the castle. The building was built in 1460 and thankfully the bed and bathroom is of modern high standards. Excellent breakfast. Cliff and Tricia are excellent hosts. Parking is tight at the back of Spears Cross and may involve a bit of shunting if the... More
