Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
I was lured by the roadside sign for the farm shop, which turned out to be the least of Blackmore Farm's attractions. As you can see from the photo, the main building is a lovely 15th century manor house, built in the local stone. There are two spacious gardens behind the house in which you can stretch your legs or just look out over the countryside.
We went to the farm cafe. The staff were charming. The range of cakes and scones was good, and the quality did not disappoint. The coffee was good, too.
The cafe provides a variety of seating. There are well-spaced tables in the cafe garden (which also has a climbing frame/slide thing at the back of the garden) and tables inside what look like stable stalls.
The farm cafe also does lunch - paninis, jacket potatoes, soups - and advises booking for its Sunday lunch.
I was so satisfied by the experience that I went back and had an excellent onion & cider soup, followed by a piece of Somerset apple cake.
Portions were good and prices were fair.

We had looked forward to our stay at Blackmore for some time. We were attending a wedding locally.
Our expectations were surpassed by some measure! The Manor House is a wonderful place to stay with suits of armour, cannonballs and other medieval paraphernalia.
The bedrooms are enormous with four-poster beds (very comfy) and wall-hung tapestries, big oak doors and open fireplaces.
Breakfasts are served in the Great Hall with all manner of choice including full English.
The Manor is surrounded by rolling countryside but the gardens are beautifully manicured with lush borders.
We felt privileged to stay here but regretted it was for such a short time.

Blackmore Manor house is a stunning place to stay. We booked 2 nights in The Gallery and were really sorry to leave. Ian and Ann are the perfect hosts; friendly, generous and really enthusiastic about their beautiful house. Booking online was simple and we arrived to a warm welcome from Ann who provided us with freshly brewed tea and coffee and homemade cake.
The gallery is a stunning room in the old house. The room is more like a suite and full of character - the main bedroom downstairs with a huge lounge area upstairs, lots of space and decorated with tapestries and furnishings in keeping with the historic building. The higgledly staircase could be an issue for some, but we loved it.
A hearty breakfast was served in the hall, we ate amongst the collection of arms, a suit of armour and a grand fireplace. Delicious freshly cooked farm produce, lots of choice and nothing was too much trouble. A chat with Ian was a delight and he happily explained the history of the farm and it's recent refurbishment.
Excellent value for money - can't wait for our next visit.

Pre booked this morning for 5 for breakfast for a family birthday. Arrived at 10am. Allocated ‘The Dog House’ shed. Cramped, uncomfortable seating, dingy and smelly. Breakfast took so long I got up and had a walk around outside as I couldn’t stand being couped up in the unappealing shed we were sat in and the air was much cleaner smelling outside! During this time 2 young girls who were members of staff were loudly bickering over a breakfast order. It sounded familiar so I said that sounds like our order and clarified what had been ordered. 40 minutes for breakfast to be served. Not all served together so those of us that had been served had to go ahead and eat as it would have been cold. The food tasted lovely and was well presented when it eventually arrived. The overall experience however was incredibly mediocre and we won’t be returning. An obvious apparent lack of experienced or professional staff.

The owners of this complex are lovely, the food in the café looks good and the breakfasts were excellent, beautifully cooked. The location is beautiful and the fifteenth century Manor House complete with chapel, exquisite, breakfasts for all residents are served in the great hall. However as someone who was travelling with a small, non shedding, well behaved dog I did not appreciate being given the Cider Press for accommodation. It is not as nice as it looks on the photos. It looks like a converted cow shed, is very dark and gloomy and had an oily smell. I needed to wash all my clothes when I got home. There is plenty of room in it, two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a huge living room with a fridge, a small kitchen and an ancient Aga, not lit for the summer obviously. Nevertheless it did not please somehow. It is very near the farmyard, so has those smells too, no nice views out of any windows, lots of flies were around naturally and despite the little garden I did not warm to it. It was the only choice open to me as a dog owner. I think dogs should either be welcomed properly or excluded. I had recently been staying in a very lovely five star hotel where dogs were really welcomed. I think Blackmore Farm is a beautiful place and all the other accommodation looked most attractive but if I were you I would avoid the Cider Press when going there.

Wow! What a great place, wonderful history, exceptional food and a special bedroom in the main building. We thoroughly enjoyed our 24 hrs at the Farm and the staff were so friendly and helpful. As a party of 20, the dining area was superb and it made the celebration feel very special. The food was delicious, the mains being all hot and a huge selection of vegetables. To do that in one serving was impressive! A special, unique and enchanting place. Would definitely return. 👍🏻👏🏻

This B&B was beyond accommodating. The staff was kind. The breakfast was amazing. We had a room with a twin and double bed which had a small kitchen space, a lounge and a little garden with chairs and tables. It was all lovely, and I would 100% recommend staying here!

This must be one of the most beautiful B&B's in the country. We were welcomed with tea and home made cakes and given the opportunity to see the old chapel, the ancient kitchen and other rooms of this fascinating, authentically furnished house. breakfast was spectacular. Huge bathroom, wonderful views, and a great farm shop next door. We will return.

Greeted on a Tuesday lunchtime, May 18th by the most warm and friendly' Front of House' Lady you could ever wish to meet. Regretably I do not have her name. We had a delicious lunch in Room no 1, there are 7 altogether, and some covered seating outside. Cosy and warm, a brilliant idea out of the rather inclement weather and during our NOT so blessed current Covid Environment. The Farm Shop is small but well worth a visit, do not miss the Somerset Brie. The experience was so good, in the lashing rain two days later we felt we had to return for both the excellent coffee and the lunch. Thank you.

After a lovely walk up on the Quantocks this morning my husband and I stopped at Blackmore farm for a bite to eat. The establishment had tastefully adapted the cafe to the highest of standards to ensure it was covid safe. The food arrived promptly which was delicious and was served by very pleasant staff. We would definitely recommend and we will be visiting again.
