We could not have had a better stay in this beautiful, characterful house. Our needs were totally met, nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was a feast and really set us up for a day in Wells. Will definitely return, perhaps with friends next time.

Would totally recommend

My wife and I wanted to stay at a small, intimate B&B Guest House in Somerset for our anniversary. We saw some reviews for the Compton House Hotel, a small Georgian  guest house in Axbridge and decided this was for us. It is situated less than 3 miles from Cheddar (Gorge) at the top end of a beautiful little village called Axbridge, an excellent location for exploring the surrounding areas. On arrival we were greeted by the owner, Patricia, and told we could use the lounge, shown our delightful room and asked what time we’d like breakfast and what we’d like.
Nothing was too much trouble for Patricia. Our room was quirky, really comfortable and spotlessly clean. 
Breakfast was amazing, great food, cereals, home made jams and marmalades,”full English” coffee or tea. It was all delicious and very relaxed and unhurried.
Patricia is a wonderful host, and we cannot recommend her guest house highly enough. Thanks for helping to make our anniversary so special. 

Recommendations for eating. The New Inn at Cross and La Rocca at Cheddar.

A wonderful little bed & breakfast hotel situated in a lovely part of Somerset. Comfortable and very welcoming.recommend

A lovely two night stay in Compton House. It is a beautiful Georgian house with secluded garden and we were made to feel very welcome. An excellent breakfast before we went off to watch the Axbridge Pageant, a 10 yearly event!

Hospitality With A Personal Touch

My wife and I stayed in this hotel for a weekend exploring and walking in the Cheddar area. The location was ideal being close to Axbridge town for eating and drinking yet close to major roads and bus routes for the surrounding area.  The owner could not have been more welcoming on our arrival and throughout our visit.  Breakfasts were varied and plentiful and taken in beautiful, characterful rooms.  Our bedroom (the Tilley Room) was warm, clean and comfortable and furnished in the same character as the downstairs rooms.  Fully recommended.

Exceptional Accommodation and Hostess

We were fortunate to stay at Compton house for 4 nights between 17-21st August 2021. The house provides a unique and beautiful environment, exquisitely furnished by the talented and accommodating owner, Patricia. Situated in historic Axminster and within easy walking distance of the local pubs, where we enjoyed our evening meals. Wider afield but within easy driving distance, we visited Bristol, Wells Cathedral, Clevedon, Weston-Super-Mare (not recommended) and, Street outlet village. 
Breakfasts at Compton House are excellent and Patricia was keen to ensure all requests were catered for.

A well located historic delight with an exceptional hostess.

Compton House is a true historic treasure in a great location and is owned and managed by a wonderfully caring and friendly host. Once a family home, Patricia has created a welcoming and very special place to stay, comfortable, romantic and one to always remember. Our room, looking as if from a period drama, was wood panelled  and decorated with impressive plaster mouldings. Tapestries on the walls, a magnificent and extra large four poster bed and a roll-top bath, beautiful country views overlooking the well kept garden. Many of the original features remain in the house including the service bells that once summoned the maid! 
Due to the need for separation between guests for COVID safety, we were also treated to the privilege of using the spacious and comfortable lounge, this too a period delight filled with beautiful furniture and antique pieces. Breakfast included local produce, was well prepared and presented; we looked forward to it and enjoyed our morning chat with our lovely host Patricia. 
After five nights we were very sad to leave for the next stage of our holiday but we will return. The attention to detail and the enormous care given by Patricia to the running of this hotel is what really makes the difference, she’s clearly proud of her house and her business and so she should be. Excellent!

An historic treasure with the perfect host

Wonderful character property, lavishly furnished with lots of grand antique fixtures and fittings. Excellent, friendly, host who cooks immense, sumptuous breakfasts and keeps a roaring log fire ablaze in the huge residents' lounge. A real taste of luxury from a bygone era... 

Historic heaven

We spent a great time at Compton House. Our host Patricia gave us a very warm welcome and during our whole stay she let us feel very comfortable and took care of our every wish or need. 
We especially enjoyed the historic ambiance of the house and rooms which are all individually decorated and each has its own character. Everything was clean and in good condition. Breakfast was exceptional with homemade and regional products which we enjoyed very much. The garden was pretty and we were sorry that we could not make use of it due to bad weather. Thank you Patricia!

Beautiful historic house with perfect service

We stayed here for two nights for a weekend break.
Our room was spacious 
, comfortable and we had great views from our room.
Patricia was a supurb host and nothing was too much trouble for her, we were made to feel welcome and at home.
Breakfast was excellent and I cannot recomend Compton house enough.

Great location and fantastic host

Patricia is the perfect host and what a beautiful characterful home she opens up to her guests. The breakfast can not be beaten. Axbridge village is well worth a visit, we had a lovely meal in the Lambs Inn, a few minutes walk away. My only regret was not to have had time to spend in Patricia’s beautiful garden. Until next time...
