Lovely property and fab owners. This was far more like a b&b in a beautiful old home with great views rather than a hotel. Owners v v friendly and accommodating. Rooms were spacious clean and comfortable and whilst parts need refurbishing that would detract from the charm of the property. Def come back!

Welcoming Hosts. Peaceful and with beautiful views from breakfast room over the reservoir. The feel of an old Manor House that has some happy history to it. The grounds were lovely too. I had to contact Expedia and also phone The Parsonage to find out if my booking had been confirmed. Then no further instructions arrived. It would be good to have had some written directions either from Expedia or The Parsonage as the postcode didn't take us there. After driving in and out of Axbridge several times to enquire we did eventually find our way by contacting the hosts courtesy of the Post Office in Axbridge for more instructions and very glad we did. Will know next time!

Really enjoyed our stay at the Parsonage. If you are used to 5 star and want 5 star, then this probably isn't for you. However if you want a comfortable stay with lovely friendly owners and a great breakfast, then I can recommend this hotel.

Definitely a unique experience- hospitality from the hosts was special. The location was a bit hard to find. Breakfast timing from 8am caught me out on my first day, but the hosts were very accommodating on my 2nd day of stay.

Disappointing - it smelt of dampness
I visit lots of B & Bs and hotels I don't like writing critical reviews, It's only if I think that others need warning that I write a negative review. Unfortunately I think that the Parsonage falls into that category. I've read the positive reviews waxing lyrical about the place and think that I must have stayed somewhere else. POSITIVE, it's a really impressive building with great views, the rooms seem clean. NEUTRAL - breakfast was well cooked but pretty average with quite small portion of the full English. The hosts were pleasant but didn’t interact particularly NEGATIVE Finding the place, it's virtually impossible to find with a satnav. In their email telling you that they only receive guests between 4pm and 8pm, the hosts could have given directions The driveway... a cart track, I was concerned about damaging my car The smell - the place smelt damp, my bedroom particularly so, I used a tin of lynx to try to get rid of the smell A total lack of fire evacuation instructions and of smoke alarms...there are at least three lettable rooms, this is a big house and is run as a business. My room had a small vestibule type thing with a fire extinguisher in it, no instructions and the light didn’t work The cable to one of the bedside lamps had been spliced together and allegedly PAT tested in 2005...a fire waiting to happen The Wifi didn't work No locks on room door, I don't usually have a problem but NO bolt on bedroom or bathroom door either I will not be returning

The Parsonage, a lovely place to stay.
The hosts were charming, very hospitable. A lovely property in a beautiful location, overlooking Cheddar resevoir. The stone driveway probably doesn't improve the state of one's tyres! Breakfast was delicious, a variety of cereals and range of cooked food. One point to note, there are no locks on the bedroom doors. The rooms are serviced daily, although as we were there for just three nights, we were rather surprised. We had a great stay and enjoyed exploring the area. Cheddar is a walk of about 40 minutes from the property; well worth a visit. Would thoroughly recommend staying at the Parsonage.

We spent some time here, the building is wonderful, the Owners are Fabulous people and the service was second to none, the breakfast was ideal and set you up for the day to explore the surrounding areas. The room was clean, tidy and also a very comfortable bed with great outlooks, I can recommend this property and I will definitely be going again when I travel down that way due to the atmosphere and the overall suitability.

Lovely short stay in a bnb with lots of character
We had a lovely short stay in Axbridge at the Parsonage. The hosts were really accommodating and welcoming and the property is really lovely. The price for the stay was reasonable and the included breakfast was a great addition. The property has an amazing view too and it's a very short way from Axbridge itself where we were visiting friends.

Very friendly hosts. Quiet, with great views from the historic property. Large rooms. Room facilities in keeping with the charm and character of the property so you would be disappointed if you expected to find a trouser press in the room, but for ourselves everything was fine.Rooms we had were ensuite. Great breakfast provided. Only 5 minutes from Cheddar. Satnav took us to care home nearby, so be aware property is down a single track lane called parsonage lane and you will miss it if driving too fast. No reception desk so phone first to let them know your arrival time.
