Historic Hotels in Somerset
Hotel Accommodation - about heritage ratings
We love the wonderfully rich history and cultural heritage of Britain. If your
idea of fine accommodation is an elegant
country house hotel, or you'd like to stay in a castle, or a rustic old coaching
inn, or lay your head where Queen Elizabeth I slept, you'll like our new Heritage
Rating system for accommodation. We've gone through thousands of hotels, guest
houses, and B&Bs
in our directory and rated the accommodation for its heritage interest. With
Heritage Rated hotels you'll find more than a room - you'll find a slice
of history! If you love British heritage, look for  or  .
Historic Hotels, those rated highly on a Heritage Rating, are also highlighted
in yellow and listed first within the listings for each town. Learn more

The most visited destination in Somerset is the cathedral city of Bath, with its elegant Georgian crescents and the old Roman baths. But if you venture further south you will come across some relatively undiscovered gems, like the city of Wells with its superb cathedral, Bishop's Palace, and intact 14th century street, or mysterious Glastonbury, where the ruins of Glastonbury Abbey stand beneath the famous Tor. Travel further west to the beginnings of Exmoor, or explore Cheddar Caves, or the showcaves at Wookey. These are just a few of the heritage highlights of Somerset - there's a lot more to see!
