The Talbot Inn at Mells - Inn in Somerset
Selwood Street
Mells, Frome, BA11 3PN, Somerset
England,
Reino Unido
A very special place. Sweep under the carriage arch and you enter a cobbled courtyard. There's a tithe-barn sitting room which is an extension of the restaurant, then the Coach House Grill, a restored skittle alley – a brilliant space for board games, reading and relaxing (plus big group bookings and special events).
As for the main house, weave along ancient passageways and find stone walls, rugs on wood floors, crackling log fires and a low-ceilinged bar for a pint. Delicious food flies from the kitchen, so good it tastes home-cooked. Bedrooms (above and beside the inn) are the best, some smaller, others huge with claw-foot baths, walk-in showers and modern four-posters, all with clouds of Siberian goose down and Bramley soaps and lotions. Add thoughtful staff to the mix and you will be happy.
Breakfast is a feast and includes a bloody Mary which you can construct yourself. Explore the village, especially the church.
