The Oakhouse Hotel

We stayed at this hotel on the 22nd October via booking.com. It is located in a small village of Axbridge approximately 8 minutes drive from Cheddar Gorge. The communication from the staff prior to setting off was excellent as my wife is disabled and has limited mobility. They advised us that there was no lift in the building and one flight of stair but the walk to our rooms was no more then 6 meters in total from the front door to the room, which we could cope with. They also informed us that there was disabled parking in the square but this was only short stay. They also mentioned that the restaurant would be closed and no staff onsite as we were arriving after 4pm on a Sunday. Also included in the communication was how to enter the property and were to find the keys to the rooms we had booked. When we arrived, we were early and the lady at reception kindly rushed the staff to make our rooms ready and gave us the keys. The rooms contained large double beds, an en-suite bathroom, tea/coffee facilities and a mini fridge containing a complete continental breakfast with water and juice. The village is picturesque and steeped in history, the buildings were amazing and the Church bells were very vocal as it was Sunday. We chose to visit the Lamb Inn for an evening meal which is a must!! and we discovered free overnight parking just behind the co-op store in the village. The hotel does need a little refurbishing and this had been started. However, a professional painter needs to be employed as the quality of the workmanship leaves a lot to be desired. But considering how hard hotels were hit financially over the Covid lockdown I'm sure once they make some money those improvements will happen. Ultimately, it was a perfect stay, in comfy beds, in a beautiful and really convenient location. Thank you for making things so easy.
