Detailed Reviews
Lynch House is ideally placed for exploring the Somerset levels, Clarks village and various other attractions in the area. The grade 2 listed building is quiet and set back from the road with ample onsite parking. We were greeted by Lynne who could not do enough for us throughout our stay. Breakfast was freshly cooked with local ingredients and served in the orangery with its wonderful views of the garden. They catered for our dietary needs and nothing was too much trouble. Our room was well appointed with a large en-suite bathroom a very large and comfortable bed and period features. This place is like a home from home and we would highly recommend it to anyone and next time we are in the area we will return.

I stayed here for one night but wished it had been longer. The charming proprietor (Roy Copeland, a notable jazz musician) invited me for tea in his office/study when I arrived slightly before check-in time. The delightful manageress Lynne was keen to ensure a warm welcome and that everything I needed was available to me. This is not just a Bed and Breakfast though, it is Roy Copeland’s home and I was made to feel like a valued house guest rather than a paying customer. My room, the Somerton, was a generous sized dual aspect room, with both aspects looking out onto the beautifully curated and tended (2 acres plus rill and pond) gardens. The huge bathroom had everything one could need, with a large bath and drenching shower, good quality towels, robes, facecloths and toiletries. The bed linen and mattress were of the highest quality and I slept soundly, awaking to birdsong and utter peace. Breakfast (I ordered the night before) offered a wide range to satisfy healthy (fruit, yoghurt etc.) and hungry (full breakfast) guests. I had the full English breakfast which was perfectly cooked with the highest quality ingredients. Mr. Copeland was busily doing a crossword over breakfast when I came into the spacious breakfast room (a piano in the corner hinted of musical soirées) and it underpinned the sense that I was a guest not a customer. If you are going to Somerset, do stay here - it is a delight from the moment you set foot onto the grounds and whenever you leave, it will be too soon.

Within very easy walking of the village of Somerton this Manor House is beautiful. Our massive dual aspect twin room looked overlooked the gardens. The staff were very welcoming and we were offered a pot of tea and biscuits in the drawing room on our arrival. Plenty of off road parking. Breakfast was delicious. We met the resident owner, amazing gentleman full of amazing stories. We wished we had booked more than 1 night there. You will not be disappointed.

The Lynch Country House comes in first place, hands down, for the best place to stay on our recent 2 week trip through the area.
We received a warm welcome from Lynn upon arrival, and had an entertaining conversation with Mr. Copeland, the owner.
Our room was in the front of the house with a lovely view of the garden.
The bed was a four poster queen size bed which was very comfortable. The room came with lots of storage, boasting 2 wardrobes, one on either side, in addition to a dresser for clothing. A fan was available to cool down the room at night.
The bathroom was large with a rather antiquated shower, but it did the job. There were samples of shampoo and body wash as well as hand soap, no conditioner.
Large bath towels, hand towels and washcloths (much appreciated.)
Parking is in a private off road lot. Breakfast was downstairs in an open air sunroom that overlooked gardens on all three sides. One ticked a menu the night prior which had a wealth of options. The seasonal fruit was fresh and plentiful. The cooked options were delicious and HOT when served.
There was daily room service where towels were changed and the bed was made up fresh.
The house is a short walk to the village where there are several restaurants to choose from for dinner. On one night, we picked up some food from the local CoOp and ate inside at our leisure, at the dining table. It was perfect!
I can find no fault with this lovely country guest house. I felt that the price paid was quite a bargain for the amount of luxury that we received during our stay. I highly recommend booking a room. You won't regret it.

My husband and I have recently returned from a lovely break at the Lynch Country House Hotel. Lyn the manager and Roy the owner were both great hosts, making us feel very welcome and gave us lots of good recommendations about where to go to eat etc. The Lynch County House is a beautiful building, full of character and charm, sitting in equally beautiful grounds. Breakfasts were very well prepared and our room was very clean and very well appointed. We look forward to returning again soon. Thank you both!

Extremely well maintained; Lynne runs a stylish hip. We stayed in the Somerton, a spacious room with bath, the latter always nice and warm (not hot, just comfortable). Airy, bright breakfast room looks onto gardens. The owner still lives in the home, can be found mornings having his own breakfast in the very same room. His book describes a life of adventure and music, especially jazz. I borrowed it for the night and read it right thru. Kudos to the lovely young woman who made & served the delicious cooked to order breakfasts. Wish we’d asked her name. Close to Glastonbury & Wells, also Lytes Cary Manor, Mullvaney Abbey, Montecute Hosuse, Barrington Court and Tintinhull. Unfortunately, the last 3 closed due to pandemic staff shortages. On the other hand, this gave us more time to enjoy a memorable country house. Expect what you see in the web photos.

I grew up in Somerton and was visiting family with my daughter on our Europe trip and decided to stay at the Lynch Country House. Usually I stay in more modern properties, however the Lynch Country House is charming and tastefully decorated and furnished. The staff are extremely hospitable and friendly from the time of arrival until departure. Breakfast is fantastic, although we only partook one day during our stay due to having breakfast with family most days. If you are visiting the Somerton area and looking for somewhere to stay then the Lynch Country House is a must.

Accommodation in the main house had been suspended because of scaffolding all round due to major roof repairs but we were housed very comfortably in the gatehouse and had a lovely garden outside our window. Not hugely up to date but this didn't matter as everything clean, comfortable and well provided for. Also safe, with plenty of hand gel, masks on staff and social distancing.
Breakfast was in the lovely orangery in the main house looking out on to the charming back garden and it's water feature. Food was good - muesli followed by plentiful scrambled eggs and smoked salmon but full English available if wanted. We would certainly return when back in the area.

Beautiful property and grounds located in a perfect little town. The property and grounds were so relaxing, we will most certainly return. The room we stayed in was splendid with all items of furniture true to the Georgian period that the house was built.

If you ever want to be pampered and made to feel special book into the Lynch. Lynne the manager and Roy the owner are absolutley superb and interesting people. The room we had was spacious and cozy the towels white and soft. Breakfast was delicious and very well cooked and beautifully presented, enough to last the day. The grounds stunning with all the snowdrops in bloom. Good pub grub in the Globe. Welcoming and friendly staff and a warm fire to enhance the evening. If you go to Somerton dont book anywhere else The Lynch is a must.
