Historic pub hotel in Somerset with 13 individually designed rooms and locally sourced restaurant
Rooms
The Green Dragon offers 13 individually designed bedrooms, each with en-suite bathrooms and flat-screen TVs. Room sizes range from single to superior double and family options, with some rooms featuring spacious walk-in showers and large bathrooms. Guests with reduced mobility can request a room on the lower level, though some stairs are narrow and lack handrails.
Dining
The on-site restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner using locally sourced produce, including a full English cooked-to-order breakfast. The bar offers a fine selection of local ales, wines, and cocktails, with a lively atmosphere frequented by locals. Special dietary requests, such as vegan options, are accommodated, and the menu includes pub classics like the dragon burger and lasagne.
Location
The hotel sits in the market town of Wellington, 7 miles south of Taunton and close to the M5 motorway for easy access. Nearby attractions include Cothay Manor, Woodlands Castle, and the Blackdown Hills and Grand Western Canal Country Park. Exeter International Airport is 19 miles away, and the town center offers shopping and dining within walking distance.
Family-Friendly Accommodations
The hotel offers family rooms with spacious accommodations, including a king-size bed and a pull-out sofa bed or camp bed option. Children can enjoy a dedicated menu with kids' meals, and the outdoor courtyard seating area hosts community events. The pub's lively environment is family-friendly, though noise from the bar may carry into rooms above.
Entertainment & Community
