Stopped in for a bite to eat after a treat at Charlton House. Food was lovely, staff were friendly. Atmosphere was friendly. It's exactly what it says on the tin, clearly the regulars are hard working locals. Would highly recommend for a drive by dinner. Thank you! 


Stopped for some grub

This was our first visit to Shepton Mallet, and we were made to feel at home as soon as we walked through the door. The accessible room we had booked was of a good size, clean and comfortable the shower room was great well equipped with adequate grab rails and frame around the WC we had plenty of towels changed daily .
friendly staff and lovely food, will go back soon.

Fantastic breakaway

Turned up hungry after a day logging wood. Asked if they did an all day breakfast, girls said not on menu but would cook it for us. 
We had been turned away from three places was wondering if people wanted to make money. Clean nice place with music. 5stars

Ticked all box’s

Booked as a half way stop off to Bude.  What a little gem! Absolutely brilliant place.  Staff friendly helpful and so accommodating (sorry didn't get any names).  We had an accessable room which for mum was a godsend.  Food fabulous can't rate this place any higher.  Would definitely use it again.

Stop off on the way to Bude

Popped in after a trip to Glastonbury Tor being very hungry after this.  Was greeted by wonderful team of staff, Sasha, Karol, Issy, Kirsten, Mel with the lovely food cooked by Chefs Jen and Ivor.  I had the bangers and mash and it was delicious and my friend had the fish and chips which went down very well after our trip.  The customer service was brilliant and would recommend a visit.

Stopped for Food

We were so impressed with the food, atmosphere and service at the Highwayman. My family and I were greeted by new landlady Carrie Anne who instantly made us feel welcome. We had a delicious Sunday roast and all the trimmings, could not fault a thing. We will definitely be back, thank you!!!!

The best Sunday roast ever

We stayed here for a night after going to Longleat. Car Park had loads of parking spaces. 
The restaurant looked very clean and check in was quick and easy.
The room was also clean and I liked the display made with the towels and shampoo/conditioner. 
My only issue was the pillows were quite flat and could do with replacing!
We did not eat here, however the menu had a different variety of food catering for everyone.

Longleat visit

Great value for money hotel, perfect for a cheap overnight stay. We were attending an overnight Ghost Hunt at Shepton Mallet Gaol, so were looking for a hotel that was local so that we could stop at it for a bit and unwind after driving up from Berkshire on a very hot Saturday afternoon, before then heading off to the Gaol, then go back to and grab a few hours sleep after the ghost hunt finished at 3:00am!  The Highwayman Inn got all the basics right - warm, friendly staff, clean room, clean fresh towels, en suite shower and loo. We were both happy with the facilities on offer at this price point. I had the full English breakfast the next morning and we both ate here on the Saturday evening before going out for the evenings entertainment. They serve honest pub grub, nothing fancy but simple food that hits the spot, perfect.

An overnight stay while ghost hunting in Shepton Mallet,

Although aspects of the stay showed the age of the hotel element of this pub the staff team made the stay great, they were all friendly and clearly want to make the guest experience as good as it can be given that they clearly have had some challenging times. 
The hotel room was clean, with a good double bed that was comfortable, the bathroom had an amazing shower that was powerful even when other people were using their showers at the same time. Breakfast was good, although personally at a price of £9.95 a little expensive in reality for a cooked breakfast, cereal and toast with instant coffee or tea. I must say the cooked breakfast was well put together with 2 bacon, 2 chipolata sausages, mushrooms, a tomato, hashbrown and beans. 

Some more constructive elements are that the place is dated, some of the decor is peeling in the common areas, as well as showing a little damage, the bar prices are on the higher side of the margins. 

I had some great conversations with the landlord of the pub who was a real gentleman throughout my stay, he is clearly here to make the guest experience the best it can be as well as establishing its self as a community pub. 

Overall a good stay and somewhere that I would happily recommend to stay again if I was in the area.

A Good Stay with a good landlord

Unfortunate second visit here. It would be great if things were made clearer by staff, rude comments don’t really help paying customers feel welcome,  I know the reputation isn’t the best here but for some very hungry people we were willing to give it a go. Check reviews and everything else and make your mind up yourself.
