Myself and a great friend have just had the most wonderful 24hrs.  We chose to have 2 single rooms.  They were perfectly comfortable and had everything we needed.  One had a shower and the other had a bath with a shower over, so it was nice to choose.  My friend was cold as we went to bed, the night porter offered an extra portable radiator which he brought up - this was wonderful service.  I am not saying the hotel was cold, she just gets cold!
We spent the 24hrs, relaxing, swimming, chatting, walking in the beautiful grounds and had the most delicious dinner (fantastic menu) and an enormous breakfast pretty much anything you would want.  We shopped in the wonderful boutique - amazing, stylish and good value.  We didn't go to Cedar Falls to shop but a bit of retail therapy is always good for the soul!  Mrs Smith was so accommodating while we deliberated so much.
The staff were friendly and welcoming, it felt personal rather than impersonal like some larger spa hotels can feel.
We only went to one class (the classes on our first day were cancelled due to the instructor being off sick) this was a pity but for us not a worry, we could always swim, gym etc. instead.
I have been to Cedar Falls 4 times now, the last time being about 5 years ago.  This was very definitely a better all round experience, there is more attention to detail and there has been a face lift of the bedrooms in particular.
All in all, I will definitely be back and loved being with my friend in such a relaxing environment.
I do feel that they must have had a lot of robes and towels stolen in the past as you have to give your one allocated robe and pool towel in on departure or you will be charged.  This is probably a sign of the times.  Take your own slippers/flipfops too or you can buy some for a £1.
It is somewhere I would recommend, the formula works well.  The house and grounds are beautifully maintained and beautifully furnished.

A wonderful stay


Had another fab stay, this time with my husband, his second visit, for an overnight stay. 
Check in was smooth, and our room was ready early. 
Lovely room (30) nice furnishings and great to see espa products in the bathroom which I always treat myself to when I am here. 
We booked in for lunch, which was not included in our package, and at only £18.50, for what you get it is really good value, with an amazing choice of salads, fish, meats, quiche, cheeses etc, plus homemade soup and breads to start and a pudding. 
I had a facial and also a body massage, both were excellent, loved the heated beds on which you have the treatments. Very cozy and warm. My husband had a craniosacral therapy treatment which he said was amazing. 
He also said the men’s changing rooms had been renovated since he was last here, and was really nice, especially the huge shower. 
Loved the spa area, with the sunny (occasionally) conservatory and having poolside drinks delivered. 
Dinner was incredibly good, great choice, the staff were attentive even though it was quite a busy evening for them. 
We had drinks in the bar area (with the complimentary nuts and olives) from the extensive gin menu, tried the signature cocktail which would recommend.
We found all the staff to be very friendly, nothing too much trouble, and always happy and smiling. 
All in all a really great weekend away, and incredibly good value, especially when we don’t have far to travel to get there. We shall definitely use more frequently. 



Fabulous Stay

AMAZING stay yet again Bev and the other woman receptionist so helpful kind and nothing too much trouble.Food was great and my room had a double bed and a lovely balcony so comfortable and clean.Will be back before Christmas

Return visit with friends

Spent the weekend at Cedar Falls with a couple of friends and had a lovely time. 
Staff very attentive, facilities good and the food was delicious. The grounds are also very nice and the sun terrace would of been had the weather been better.
I would definitely recommend this lovely location.

Great little break away from it all

Unpretentious and charming, a lovely place for a quick break.
Good facilities.  The main house is beautiful.
The food was great.  A small point but a shame the bread served with the evening meal didn't match the quality of the rest of the food.


Cute little golf course!

The real world began to melt away just as soon as I entered the gates when the most gorgeous fairy tale waterfall lake to the side of the sweeping drive came into view.  And what an impressive driveway.  Set in between the manicured golf course with spectacular hill views and mature trees galore. 
I was warmly greeted on arrival by a very welcoming and enthusiastic receptionist who went out of her way to personally show me around, introducing all of the available facilities and taking time to explain everything on offer.  Outstanding customer service!  
My room, a cosy single, was lovely - tastefully decorated and beautifully clean throughout, the ESPA toiletries were an especially nice touch.  The spa is fabulous; there's a large solarium housed in the conservatory with plenty of generous sized loungers and masses of natural light.  Weather permitting, the French doors open on to the terraced garden and those panoramic stunning views.  Comfy robes are provided and fleecy blankets are available for getting snuggly post swim.  Room service ordering is available in the spa area which was an unexpected welcome detail.  The pool, jacuzzi and the generously sized fairy lit ceiling steam room are lovely (didn't try the sauna).  Minor point to mention - the steam room could do with being a wee bit hotter, however it is much bigger than usual.  The wet room showers are a great feature as is the salon style ladies' make-up/hairdrying ante chamber - super.  Proper wooden lockers (tokens provided) in the changing room!  Oh yes (so much nicer than tacky clanking rusty metal), again an upmarket touch. 
I popped my head into the gym (exercised my neck at least) and it looked spacious and very well equipped.  I enjoyed one lovely treatment (so much to choose from).  I also briefly visited the huge exercise/meditation room (didn't participate in any of the four classes that were available but I heard they were amazing), the peaceful grand drawing room and the squidgy sofa  sitting room.  There's also an attractive boutique.  
The dinner, which was amazingly included in the price, was unbelievably excellent, really memorable delicious freshly prepared chef standard food of the highest quality.  I had crab followed by monkfish - totally mouthwatering delish, and guilt free healthy to boot!  I'm not a pudding person but the lemon mousse (it would have been rude not to ..)  was divine.  Loads of equally healthy options at breakfast the following morning, again served in the grandeur of the old dining room.  
Cedar Falls is a charming authentic old country manor house, wonderfully old-fashioned in an unpretentious non-ostentatious or stuffy too formal way.  I found the customer service second to none; the staff were super friendly, well-informed and really approachable.  The attention to detail throughout is fantastic.  I visited on my own and felt completely at ease the whole time.  I found the whole package to represent incredible value for money: available from 11am until 5pm the following day, with so many spa facilities on offer and dinner included - unbeatable.  
Cedar Falls exceeded all my expectations, so much so I've since become a member!

Relaxing retreat .. highly recommended!

I took my friend and her daughter here to celebrate her 50th birthday. We had a really good time. I loved it and would definitely stay again. Only regret is we only stayed 1 night and i'd have liked to stay longer. Pool and spa area lovely. Beautiful meal in the restaurant. Lovely comfortable old house and beautiful gardens to walk around.

Relaxing celebratory stay

An amazing relaxing oasis just outside Taunton. I treated myself to an overnight stay at Cedar falls for some solo time after a stressful period. I was greeted by the lovely Jane who went above and beyond to welcome me. She showed me around the facilities. All staff were friendly, the spa facilities were great. I had the best ever aromatherapy massage. I was very comfortable dining alone and did not feel awkward. Hanging around in a gown and slippers is in its own way relaxing.  The food was very good. I can’t wait to go back. My only slight criticism was the outdoor pool which is allegedly heated was freezing which was a shame as the weather was glorious and I was loving lying by the pool and a nice dip would of been the icing on the cake.

A paradise in Somerset

Stayed here with friends, I’ve been a number of times before. It is rather dated but they are working to update it gradually. 
The downsides were: 
* the room was a little dusty 
* the steam room wasn’t working properly; it had a funky smell and there was no heat
* random damp smell at certain locations in the building
* it would have been nice to have the robes in your room so that you can get straight into them without having to go and collect them.
*too much paper: need to go electronic. 
* GET RID OF ALL THE NASTY PLASTIC PLANTS. Some huge parlour palms, orange and lemon trees would be fab in the conservatory. Those hunting pics and Churchill etc need to go; or make it part of a ‘history of the house wall’

On the plus sides: 
* the grounds and views are stunning - we liked the presence of wildlife. The grounds weren’t over managed.
* all the staff were friendly and attentive when approached otherwise they left us to it which we liked. 
* the food was excellent. Good quality local produce beautifully presented. I’ve been a few times and always found it so, so negative comments here has surprised me. 
* Relaxed atmosphere, it feels like your own place. I like not being hassled. 

Would I go back; most definitely,  the trade off of the outdated decor is the relaxed atmosphere and beautiful grounds.  I have never seen it really packed.

Faded but still lovely

A trip to celebrate a birthday, compared to last visit it was very busy (both had been half terms), had to jostle to get a lounger bed and others saving them when they shouldn't. Great coffee. Had a massage was Ok but the room was chilly. Had a free treatment from a choice of 2 and we ended up with the one we didn't ask for on the phone when we booked. The 3 course lunch was the highlight of the day.
