The converted stable room we stayed in for two nights was large, along with a nice sized bathroom and with a separate shower. We slept very well and the room was very quiet. Nice to be able to park our car right outside the room and there was a small patio area at the front with seats. We ate in the restaurant both nights and the menu has some interesting Caribbean influenced dishes. Nicely located in lovely countryside and with good road links nearby (M5 and A303) it is ideal for visiting the many historic houses nearby. Would definitely visit again.

The ambience and the staff were great. The food was okay! What was atrocious was the £18.50 for 2 medium glasses of Malbec. This is a pub not a cocktail lounge not at all happy. The staff were very attentive and knowledgeable, it’s a great shame! Will not be returning.

We only had one night here, was a quick stop over, but we absolutely loved it here, and will definitely stay longer next time Buddy and Kate are both wonderful and welcoming hosts. Our room was very clean, and had everything we needed. Our little doggie was made welcome too Excellent breakfast Thank you for a very pleasant stay Mr and Mrs Nolan

I’ve never stayed here, but i certainly would. We cycle a lot in the summer and the flying fish is often our stopping point. The staff are lovely and friendly, the food is top notch and the prices are perfect for the quality and service given. Even after the summer is over and we don’t return on our bikes for a year, the owners often remember us and what we have to eat. It’s personal there, and well worth a visit for the views as well.

We booked the Flying Fish Stables at very short notice and our host Kate could not have been more helpful. We was met by Kate on arrival and our room was spacious and clean with a lovely walk in shower plus the usual tv and tea making facilities. A great location just outside Ilminster. We decided to eat in and the food was great, especially the mutton curry. Would recommend for its hospitality and location. We will return on our next visit to Somerset. S&M (Kent)

This is a great little place somewhere in Ilminster. There is not much around unless you want to drive some. But we stayed for peace and quiet and we had a great time after being introduced to the local patrons! We had dinner which was delicious and exotic. Breakfast was also very good. The room was very well appointed and bed was monstrous! But it was very comfortable. Just a small problem, the shower is a funny one. I could not crank it down below very hot. So I opted for the bathtub for a lovely cooling bath. Unit 5 was the offender.
