Nestling at the foot of the Mendip Hills, just where the River Axe emerges from the fathomless darkness of Wookey Hole, Glencot House creeps from the shadows to capture the hearts of all those who cross her threshold.
The Victorian mansion, built in grand Jacobean style, boasts the most elegantly theatrical interior of any country house hotel.
Filled with exotic antiques and ancient curiosities it successfully combines vintage luxury with relaxed intimacy.
The aptly named Riverview Restaurant at Glencot overlooks the gorgeous River Axe as it meanders through the extensive gardens and is the perfect setting in which to enjoy classic French and British cuisine with a contemporary twist.
A la carte dinner and plat du jour lunches are offered every day with the exception of Sunday when the immensely popular, Miller's Traditional Sunday Lunch is offered from midday until 3pm.
The beautiful Terrace Dining room is situated on the ground floor of the hotel, overlooking the gardens, and is furnished with many stunning antiques. The Terrace Dining room can accommodate up to 50 people for private dining and a selection of delicious menus are available to choose from.
The gardens at Miller's are a major attraction in their own right featuring the River Exe, a waterfall and all manner of wildlife including badgers, squirrels, deer and a friendly heron!
Situated within the grounds is a fabulous boathouse which has recently been built for our guest's use and very soon this will be joined by an artists retreat.
The five acres of gardens are populated with all manner of trees, plants, shrubs and walkways. Across the river and still within our grounds is a cricket pitch!
Whether you want to write in an utterly tranquil environment, enjoy Champagne on a private terrace on the river, or just wile away your time in an idyllic setting – our converted boathouse, complete with quirky antiques and typewriter is perfect for whatever you want it to be.
