Great stay!
Loved our stay at The Gallivant and would definitely visit again! Due to the location of the hotel I think this is definitely more of a seasonal hotel, however this didn’t impact my opinion of it, the service was great, room was lovely and the food (both breakfast and dinner) was incredible! My only complaint is that they don’t have tea/coffee making facilities in the room, we were told that we could go to the bar for these however, they charge for them on your bill at the end of the stay which I think is very out of the norm!

Elegance - That simple!
To sum it up, if you prefer the finer things in life then this is the place for you. Every employee overflows with customers service, I was hand delivered a flat white coffee to my room by whom I believe to have been the Manager.

Our recent stay at The Gallivant was our second visit, and it was a great way to spend New Year's. The peaceful coastal setting provided the perfect backdrop to relax and start the year on a calm and positive note. The staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring we felt comfortable throughout our stay. Their helpfulness and professionalism stood out once again. The food and drinks were excellent. The room was cozy, with thoughtful amenities that made our stay even more enjoyable. We're glad we chose The Gallivant for our New Year's getaway and would happily return in the future.

Yoga was exceptional. Three classes in 4 days. Not staying at the hotel but greeted like a valued customer when I went to class. Orange shot after was most welcome. The studio was so well equipped. Thank you Melanie for pushing me outside my comfort zone xxx

We were planning to go to Babington House in Somerset, but decided to try somewhere different for a change. The place is cosy and the bar area was inviting. You get complementary cake at 4pm and then wine at 5pm. The place did feel a little bit like an old peoples home. it was very quiet and calm, which was nice, but it was missing any kind of buzz or vibe in the evening. I wonder whether it is more lively at the weekends? Food in the restaurant was AMAZING, lots of interesting menu options for the adventurous diner. The breakfast was original and delicious. From the outside, the rooms reminded us of a motel from one of those American road movies. Inside they were nicely decorated, with a roll top bath, comfortable bed and access to private (ish) outside space. We both had massages with Ruth, who clearly knew what she was doing. Just as good as the Babington Cowshed massages. Just a shame the spa area couldn't be a bit bigger so we could have massages at the same time. it was a fun experience, and had something unique about it.

A beautiful hotel
A wonderfully comfortable hotel with a team of staff who couldn’t do enough for us. Lovely to sit around the fireplace and relax for our anniversary treat and the luxury garden room was super comfortable.
