“The Helyar Arms, a Grade II listed inn dating back to the 15th century, offers a particularly immersive experience into the past, nestled as it is in the quaint village of East Coker. I was struck by the hotel's commitment to locally sourced cuisine and the unique touches, like the on-site skittle alley, that set it apart. This is a place that seems to understand the appeal of a slower pace, making it a worthwhile escape.”
