The best way the describe The Crossways is that it is a bit like an English rural version of the Holiday Inn or Marriott Courtyard. It is modern, spacious, well-designed, and well-appointed. It caters to those who want reliably good accommodation without going into the luxury market. Being in the Somerset countryside, though, it is built with local stone, and blends in reasonably well with the small village it sits in. With this, though, it does feel a little charmless. Walking in, it always felt a bit like a social club and I wouldn't really want to spend much time in the common spaces. The rooms are very good, with lots of space and all the amenities and fittings you would expect in an American-style hotel. At the price point, it is pretty good value. There is also a large car park right next to the hotel. The staff are very friendly and very accommodating. The only real downside is that the food is just a bit mediocre. It's not bad, but it really isn't good either. I don't think it reaches the standards that they are trying to achieve. We had dinner there only once, and decided to go elsewhere thereafter, and we soon stopped having the cooked breakfasts too. Although to be fair, the full English is like you would get at any other hotel chain: reasonable, but nothing to write home about. For people who are not used to driving in the English countryside, beware that the only way to travel the last few miles to North Wootton is on single track roads with passing places!
