Stayed at the Ivy House for 2 nights in April, can verify other comments re the excellent breakfasts and the nice cosy rooms. Stairs are quite steep to lug cases up, but that certainly isn't unusual in this type of property. One thing to watch is there is only parking for one car, there is parking available at an adjacent... More

The Ivy House is right by Watchet Station - great for train enthusiasts! Owners were very welcoming and we were upgraded to an available, larger bedroom. All facilities fantastic and free wifi. The breakfast was delicious, varied and plentiful - set us up for the day. We had a lovely stay and it was a good base for exploring the... More

The room was very nice with a sea view..the bed was very comfortable and the breakfast was delicious and cooked to order. It was right opposite the West Somerset railway station with steam trains running... More

My partner and I chose the Ivy House after looking at earlier Internet reviews from Trip Advisor. We were not disappointed. We had Room 5, right at the very top on the third floor, with fantastic views of Watchet, the sea and the West Somerset Railway! The breakfasts were lovely, all prepared to order alongside the tables. Lynda and Terry... More

The staff were very friendly and helpful, very good breakfast, the room was very clean and well presented. I Would stay there again, and recommend it. There a couple of good local pubs serving good food and good beer (Real Ale), The Star and The Bell, again with friendly staff. There isn't a great deal to do in Watchet itself... More

What a little gem. We had only booked in for one night and would have stayed longer but they were fully booked the following night. Situated near to the marina in Watchet, this is a really nice B&B. Very clean, good wholesome food, charming hosts, and they welcome dogs. A word of warning, the stairs are a little steep but... More

A spotlessly clean and comfortable B&B run by friendly and welcoming hosts Terry and Linda. Particular mention must be made of the breakfast, freshly cooked 'theatre-style' in a corner of the dining room. Delicious! It's hard to be critical, but the back of the house overlooks the town and a large car-park that became rather noisy around pub closing time... More

We stayed here on a very last minute basis, we were in the area and my trip advisor app told me that this was the top-rated B&B, so we turned up on the doorstep and voila! A beautiful clean white and spacious room, none of those horrible fashionable pink cushions/throws or gaudy wallpaper. The ensuite was similarly white and clean.... More

We decided to visit Somerset for 2 days and found the Ivy House B&B online, the reviews were good so rang & booked! So glad that we did, we were greeted by Terry as he was just arriving home! He showed us to our room which was right at the top of the house, a very pleasant, clean & bright... More

My husband and I plus our two dogs stayed for 3 nights whilst visiting friends in the area. The whole house was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Our hosts were very friendly and couldn't do enough for us. The atmosphere was very relaxed and informal , just what we needed. I couldn't fault it at all and would highly recommend... More
