"Wonderful building with charming, comfortable and quiet rooms - you can see why The Cross is a very popular place to stay.
The host was extremely helpful, and nothing seemed too much trouble. The breakfast was one of the best that we have had on our travels, very well cooked and extremely good quality.
A big shout out to Luna the cat too!
Thanks for a lovely couple of days. "

8 Owls B&B
10/10 Excellent
"This was a fantastic place to stay. It is in the center of town, so convenient to shops and restaurants.
The room (tufted owl) was spacious and very clean. It had a private bathroom (with a shower).
It does not have air conditioning, but had large windows and a fan and I was comfortable in mid-July even as a person who sleeps hot.
There is a private (for all guests) patio/courtyard with flowers and seating, and an upstairs terrace with a view of the Tor!!!
Also, it is near the old Glastonbury abbey ruins and bus stop.
The breakfast was good as well, and there is a small kitchen with everything you'd need if you didn't want to go out for a meal.
I highly recommend this place."
"This is the second time I have stayed at this hotel in the last nine months, and it is excellent. The staff, rooms and especially the food they serve is excellent. Make sure you are hungry as the portions are large. I would recommend Mullions 51 to anytime, to stay or have a meal. I hope to stay there again in October."
"Everything from the room, the food and the staff to the hotel itself was absolutely amazing!
The room and hotel was beautiful, the food was delicious and the staff are very friendly! We will definitely be back !"
"Do not stay here if you are disabled or unable to carry your bags up a steep flight of outdoor metal stairs. The unit I stayed in is a refurbished attic. It’s well done and has a kitchenette. But, there does not appear to be any air conditioning. There is heat. I was there when it was cool, but it’s a second floor bedroom so it’s probably hot in the summer. It has the typical “charm” of older English properties that have been refurbed. Like to open the windows in the ceiling, you have to use a hand crank pole. Owners were kind and clear about the property. The only delay was once I was checked in and had a small issue, it the next day before I got an answer. If you care about the energy of a place, I found this to be energetically clean and easy to stay in. Would stay again, unless it was the high heat of summer."
