Nice hotel, great food and location
The hotel is lovely and in a great location. Easy walk to town. Breakfast was great and staff friendly. The only negative was the shower. There was no hand unit so showering was a little uncomfortable.

Perfect & Comfortable Hotel Break
My wife and I stayed at Somerville House when we visited for a friends wedding. A warm welcome and a room that had every amenity that you could need, from a mini fridge to a kettle and an iron, and more..I liked the honesty bar facility as well. A comfortable bed and room. the hotel is a short 15 min walk into the City centre. The breakfast was excellent with a choice of fruit and cereals and a choice of hot breakfasts, coupled with a cafetiere of good coffee. The service was friendly. We found it to be perfect for our needs and would recommend.

Our stay at Somerville House was excellent. Sheila and Steve were very welcoming and provided everything to make our stay comfortable. The breakfasts were absolutely first class, the beds were extremely comfortable and the room had plenty of storage space.
The beautiful garden was quiet and colourful with plenty of garden tables and chairs to use and a large canopy for shade which Steve put up for us.
We had a choice of leaflets providing information about local places to visit and Sheila's suggestions helped us enjoy some lovely days out during our stay. We will definitely return!
Thank you Sheila and Steve.
