Blackdown Pitminster - What's On in and around Pitminster and Somerset

Went to Somerset Show with Land Rover club. Good day out but no shelter considering it was a very hot sunny day in the 30°s there was just one Oak tree and many people trying to keep in the shade under it. Not ideal when you also want a quiet portaloo in the same vicinity.Enjoyed the show though and hoping it gets better and bigger each year.

I didn't go on a race day, I was there for the Taunton Flyer cycle event. Highlights of my visit were the huge number of toilets for pre ride panic wee and the delicious and well priced cheese burger I celebrated with after.

Jordan was extremely helpful would definitely recommend asking for him if you go in store.

Large outlet also has PC World i side, usually a few staff to help. Upper floor with kitchen appliances.

A regular place for us to stay when travelling on to South Devon and Cornwall. Staff are very friendly. Always a warm welcome on reception. There is plenty of choice at breakfast. Rooms are clean and there is plenty of parking. This hotel is only 5 mins from J25 of the M5. Ideal when you have had a long journey and you are wanting to stop quickly having come off the motorway.

I booked into this Premier Inn very late on the night of 18 June following my husband's emergency admission to Taunton Hospital with a head injury. We had been journeying back to London from Cornwall. I cannot thank enough the lady on Reception that night for the immense care and support she gave me at a time of such stress and concern. She was an absolute gem and an enormous credit to Premier Inn. I regret that I didn't get her name, but I hope management will check their rota and give her well-deserved praise for going well above and beyond normal customer service. I have never stayed at a Premier Inn before, but even under these circumstances I did manage to register the quality of the surroundings and service. The potential was there for an excellent night's sleep - even though I couldn't enjoy it!! Huge thanks again.
