Nestling at the foot of the Mendip Hills, just where the River Axe emerges from the fathomless darkness of Wookey Hole, Glencot House creeps from the shadows to capture the hearts of all those who cross her threshold. The Victorian mansion, built in grand Jacobean style, boasts the most elegantly theatrical interior of any country house hotel. Filled with exotic antiques and ancient curiosities it successfully combines vintage luxury with relaxed intimacy.
If you crave roaring log fires, candlelit sensuality, food cooked to perfection and grounds crying to be explored, Glencot could be your “Kubla Khan”. Miller’s at Glencot is not so much a Hotel, more a way of life. Be prepared, be very prepared, you may never leave.
Events
Events should be just that – an event. Whether it’s a wedding or a business meeting, a special dinner or celebration, it should be in a setting which lends a suitable sense of occasion. Glencot House not only has all the facilities to host a wide range of different functions – it is also suitably dramatic.

The Castle at Taunton
The Castle at Taunton is steeped in the drama and romance of English history. Once a Norman fortress, it has been welcoming travellers to the town since the 12th century. Today the Castle lives at peace with its turbulent past but preserves the atmosphere of its ancient tradition. The Chapman family have been running the hotel for 50 years and in that time it has acquired a worldwide reputation for the warmth of its hospitality. Laurels in the Good Food, RAC and AA Guides also testify the excellence of its hospitality.
Richard Guest, our Head Chef, was appointed with a mission, not merely to safeguard, but to enhance our jealously guarded reputation as one of the 20 best eating-houses in the country. Richard brings a bold, innovative style of cooking to the Castle's kitchen and is extending our British culinary repertoire in some exciting directions.
Specialities: At the Castle we create our menus by drawing inspiration from our growers, producers and farmers. Right from the very first asparagus served with our cured boar and local quails eggs, to spring lamb and young vegetables or steamed line-caught Bass with fresh peas and broad beans. Beautiful berries through the summer make for great simple pleasures such as strawberries and cream and in autumn when Brixham crab is at its best and local quinces, medlars, apples and pears are dropped at our door. All these things mean that we can give our customers the freshest tastes possible and then there is our totally British cheese board, with up to 16 artisan cheeses. Make sure you try the Elmhirst - it looks like Brie but infinitely better! You will also find an excellent room service menu offering lighter pasta dishes and the best sirloin steak we can buy.
THE CASTLE RESTAURANT IS OPEN FOR LUNCH AND DINNER MONDAY-SATURDAY AND LUNCH ONLY ON SUNDAYS.
