Top Swansea Hotel Reviews

Somerfield Lodge

Somerfield Lodge

8/10 Good
"Good value for money. Very friendly and helpful staff both in the clubhouse and pro shop. The accomidation is in a building above the proshop, the bar in the clubhouse (next door) handles the booking in/out. A good cooked breakfast, with cereal and fruit is served in the clubhouse from 8-10am, when we stayed food was available in the clubhouse until at least 8pm every day except Mondays. There are EV chargers, which are a lot cheaper than any charger in Swansea. We fully charged our car overnight. The room was clean and well furnished, the only surprise was the shower door, it had obviously been broken so there was a curtain instead which wasn't quite long enough, however it worked well. Note: the Expedia room description states "1 double or 2 single beds", its twin rooms only."

We twice ate at the hotel: for breakfast and the evening meal. The food was delicious and high quality. I had the pork wellington and fillet steak. Portion sizes are quite substantial. I had a small mountain of chips with my steak. A very cosy experience in a really quiet village. Didn’t hear a sound at night. Would definitely stay again."
