The Hood Arms  

In the village of Kilve on the edge of the Quantock Hills, a short drive from Bridgwater. On the Coleridge Way and close to the Jurassic Coast, with Bakelite Museum and Coleridge Cottage about a 15-minute drive and Dunster Castle and Cleeve Abbey within easy reach.

A family-run 17th-century coaching inn with nine cosy guestrooms and warm, traditional décor. Expect coaching-inn charm, a lively pub atmosphere and a beer garden — rooms come with basics like a shower and TV, and some features may vary by room.

Pub pouring real ales, an on-site restaurant, beer garden, outdoor tennis court and table tennis. Complimentary Wi‑Fi, free on-site self-parking and pet-friendly rooms. Perfect base for coastal walks and Coleridge Way explorations — wake up near sea-breeze mornings and head out.

Comfortable for business stays and contractors working nearby, including those heading to Hinkley Point C. Complimentary Wi‑Fi and free parking make short- or long-term stays straightforward.
