The luxury of slowing down in the Somerset countryside.

After an evening spent in the restaurant, there’s something wonderfully indulgent about wandering just a few steps across to your room at The Cotley Inn and settling in for the night.

Mornings begin gently with our elegant farmhouse-style continental breakfast, beautifully prepared and waiting for you to enjoy entirely at your own pace.

No set sittings, no rushing - simply a relaxed and refined start to the day.

Freshly baked pastries, homemade granola, seasonal fruits and locally sourced yoghurts sit alongside smoked salmon, cured meats, artisan cheeses, and fresh eggs ready to be boiled exactly how you like them.

Thoughtfully curated, effortlessly relaxed, and surrounded by rolling countryside - a stay designed for long evenings, slow mornings, and complete comfort.

Pictured above is the lovely Drey Room, cosy and perfectly formed!

There's nothing quite like a Friday at The Cotley.

Tomorrow is our only day open this weekend, and we'd love to see you.

Head Chef Dan and the team will be serving up some of your favourite Cotley classics, perfect for easing into the weekend with good food, good company and a glass of something you fancy.

We'll then be taking a short break for the weekend, but our sister pub, The Candlelight, will be open as usual should you find yourself in search of a long lunch, supper with friends, or a quiet drink.

A few tables remain for both lunch and dinner.

Unhurried midweek lunches are one of life’s great pleasures.

A proper pub classic - fish & chips with homemade orange & fennel tartare, proper chips and minted crushed peas.

Here comes the important question - vinegar on your chips?

The perfect person to give you a whistle stop tour of what a stay looks like in one of our rooms.

When Abbi first agreed to do this, we knew she’d do a great job — but we didn’t quite realise just how naturally she would showcase what staying with us is all about.

If you’ve stayed with us before, there’s a good chance you’ll already know Abbi.

We think she’s done a wonderful job capturing the warmth and charm of staying at The Cotley Inn.

There’s a certain appetite that comes from a good stomp in the countryside.

Wander the Estate, take in the views and breath the fresh air before heading back to the inn.

The muddy paw shower’s ready, along with something good to eat — and if you’d rather not rush home, a room for the night.

Chorizo & Potato Terrine - one of those dishes that’s all about patience, technique, and building layers of flavour.

We start with Koffman potatoes, peeled, washed, and finely sliced on a mandolin to create perfectly even layers.

The chorizo is then blended with garlic until it reaches a coarse breadcrumb texture before being gently cooked down to release all of its rich oils. Melted butter is added, and the mixture is folded carefully through the sliced potatoes so every layer is packed with flavour.

Everything is then layered into a parchment-lined tray and pressed firmly before being cooked slowly at 170°C until perfectly tender throughout.

Once cooked, the terrine is pressed overnight under weight to help it set beautifully.

When ready to serve, it’s portioned and deep fried until crisp and golden on the outside, whilst staying soft and rich in the centre.

At the moment, we’re serving it alongside our Spring Cod dish, although it’s a component we’ve loved using across many dishes throughout both summer and winter menus.
