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. The owners have got every single detail covered and offer the kinds of personal touches that are so thoughtful and are difference between it being a lovely place to stay to a superb one! We were treated like gold from the moment we arrived, given tea and cake upon arrival (which we were never charged for!) the breakfasts were outstanding and advice on local attractions, eateries and pubs etc was given in abundance.

The level of cleanliness was superb and one of the cleanest places I've ever had the pleasure to stay at. Honestly couldn't rate this place highly enough it is truly outstanding!

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 toiletries and the big fluffy towels and bathrobes. The breakfasts were superb - all locally sourced and very tasty. Cliff suggested an itinerary for a whistlestop tour which was very successful. We had a special meal in Reeves to round of a perfect couple of days. Will definitely go back.

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 the garden and then pre-dinner drinks one evening.

Breakfasts were fantastic, with a remarkable selection of options, including a lovely fruit salad. It's nice to be able to have alternative dishes such as smoked haddock or scrambled egg with trout.

Nothing is too much trouble for Cliff and Tricia and their restaurant booking service is another nice touch. The impeccable quality and service have been maintained and the establishment simply cannot be faulted even on the slightest detail.

The nearby Stag's Head pub again provided superb meals and service along with a welcoming atmosphere. It was crowded so booking is advised.

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 struck by the fact that not only was it spotlessly clean but also thoughtfully detailed.

Cliff and Tricia, our hosts, made us feel so welcome and nothing was too much trouble. Cliff's wine advice was most welcome and we enjoyed some super wine in the cosy living room each evening. Tricia's skill in the kitchen was evident by our fabulous breakfasts and it is heartwarming that so many of the ingredients are thoughtfully, carefully and locally sourced, then presented beautifully for our delight.

The location of Spears Cross is perfect for visiting the castle and all of the village on foot and for driving further afield. I honestly cannot fault the place!
