A lovely stay with Martin and Mel. The room was comfortable and clean with a lovely view of the countryside. The breakfasts were lovely with the added conversations at the kitchen table! The location was fab for exploring Somerset.

Wonderful B&B with a lovely homely feeling
We thoroughly enjoyed our 6 nights stay at Ellesmere House. Martin and Melanie were wonderful hosts who couldn't do enough for us. A lovely room overlooking the beautiful garden, spotlessly clean and a comfortable bed. Excellent breakfast with plenty of choices to start the day.

Absolutely beautiful B B run by great owners, who serve up a the best scrambled eggs I've ever had. Local pubs are amazing selling great food also! All the shops you will need and a beautiful 10 minute walk up a hill behind the B B to take in the view of the surrounding area. Perfect Stay.

Fantastic hosts and place!
Utterly gorgeous BnB with hosts that could not have been more helpful! We loved our stay here - really comfy rooms and beyond-delicious breakfast, but what really made it special was Melanie & Martin - such great hospitality! We're already looking at our diaries to book again...

Very friendly host and comfortable accommodation. The continental breakfast is excellent with home made cereals and lots of fruit. Parking is on the street but plenty of space during our visit. The bathroom was not en suite but was across a corridor from the bedroom, it was for our exclusive use (not shared). Located near a nice pub that does good pub-style food and easy walk to village centre. Overall a great base to explore the area.

After some confusion over the check in time, this was a lovely stay and we would return for a longer stay! Highlight was the wonderful garden with a path up a hill, and the hospitality.

The Perfect Hosts
Our stay started with a warm welcome and help with luggage to the top floor. We were a wedding group and had the whole floor to ourselves which was perfect. We were provided with nice comfortable themed rooms and excellent bathroom facilities. Breakfast was relaxed with plenty of choice and home made produce. Best of all, as others have said, Martin and Melanie are the perfect hosts providing excellent local advice, good food and conversation and Martin's second to none taxi service. All in all, we had a wonderful stay and Martin's taxi service took much of the stress out of meeting our various commitments. I cannot recommend this accommodation too highly!

Marvelous page to stay
A great place to stay in Castle Cary. The room had everything I needed, breakfast was great, and I really appreciated the pick up from the station and lift to the office on the next day. Hosts are super friendly, dogs are great, no complaints. Very high on my list for my next trip.
