The Talbot and Apartment

I picked The Talbot as a bit of a pin- sticking exercise between my business stops at Glastonbury and Poole hoping for the best as the reviews seemed very good. What I found was a little gem of a place - a nice country Hotel with a friendly cosy bar. Had a very relaxed and enjoyable meal and just a few steps away was my cosy room with a bed that comfortable it was very hard to want to get out of it! I eventually did and made my way down to a favourite breakfast of mine - succulent mushrooms on thick toast. made a lovely change from continual fry ups 'on the road'. Every member of Staff was smiling and friendly which all in all made for a brief but super stay.

From the moment I walked in till the moment I checked out I felt welcome, excellent service great food and atmosphere. Will stay here again!

We spent 4 very happy nights at the Talbot when we were attending a family wedding nearby. What a delightful place, friendly and welcoming staff. Even rescued us when we needed cake tins! We would recommend the Talbot greatly. Good luck to Kim and Richard in their new venture!

I took a group of 17 here the other day and Kim and staff dealt brilliantly with everything we asked of them. They were also so easy to deal with beforehand, when I booked the tables and put in advance orders. The food was very good ,with some unusual dishes, and the setting very convivial . Nothing was too much trouble to the staff. We will definitely be back.

Had a lovely experience the food was incredible, and the staff where lovely will definitely be coming back. The chef even came out and asked how our food was, and was lovely and chatty. I had cheesy chips which had grilled cheese on top and was delicious. It was great value for money as well

Kim and Richard were superb, fantastic recommendation for a lovely walk nearby, food was delicious, room had everything we needed. The atmosphere was wonderful, the regulars all super friendly, highly recommended, would jump at the chance to stay again!
