Homewood Hotel & Spa

Homewood Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent
"Loved it here! We stayed for 2 nights and are already planning our next visit. The food was exceptional: afternoon tea was one of the best I have ever had, and the Mediterranean breakfast was delicious. Spa facilities are lovely, as are the staff in the spa and the treatments they provide. We loved the heated outdoor pool, and spent plenty of time in it even though the weather was a bit dull and rainy. Didn't matter! The room we were in was spacious, clean, and modern. The hotel interior and lounge areas are cosy and well designed. Really feels like a relaxing, comfortable place to be. My husband's favourite part about Homewood: the pick'n'mix station at reception! A great touch, and we still talk about it. Can't wait to return!"

Market House

10/10 Excellent
"Everything was great, friendly staff and everything maintained to a high standard. The breakfast was great and in a lovely setting. The only issue I had was I couldn’t connect to the WIFI when I needed to as the code wasn’t in the visitor guide. It simply said speak to a member of staff if you are having trouble, but it was too late for that and unfortunately this is a far greater inconvenience that maybe it should be. But such is the world we live in. This is, however, surely a very simple fix. In any case, I do plan on staying here again on a regular basis, needing to stay in Glastonbury at least once per month for the foreseeable future. I will just make sure I get connected during check in moving forward and that’s the one tip I would give to others, as that small hiccup aside, you couldn’t ask for a nicer place reasonably priced."
