The Duke of York

I’ve stayed here several times over the years for work. The rooms are roomy, quiet, plenty of hot water, beds very comfortable. Parking is nearby. The staff are all super friendly, and Paul makes a great breakfast. The staff and customers of the Duke of York are all very friendly as well. We had the Sunday Carvery and it was also great. Food here in general is very good as well. Shepton is a beautiful village and the area is great for exploring. I recommend the Burrow Hill Distillery as well. Have fun.

Visiting friends in the area we chose to stay at the Duke of York for a couple of nights. It was an excellent choice. The room was well decorated, warm and clean with plenty of drawers and wardrobe space. The lighting was just right, subdued when required but with a light bright enough to see to apply make-up. The en-suite has a large heated towel rail which kept the room warm. There was also a large walk-in shower. Breakfast was huge and well cooked. The pub was a friendly place and the food was delicious. Our friends joined us for our second evening. They had never visited before, despite living in the next village for many years. We were all very impressed by the food and the service. They said they will definitely be back, as will we.

We stopped off at the Duke of York for a late lunch. It was near to the time when they stop serving food but they were happy to accommodate us and be flexible on what they would serve us. The food was decent quality, served quite quickly and reasonably priced. The staff and locals were friendly. Toilet facilities are good.
