An attractive old building, well maintained, with some nice Gothic revival features. The room was large and the bed comfortable, although as an older property it was a little dated. Car parking was as good as it could be, given the eccentric site, and the extremely narrow exit. But the real glory of this hotel is the restaurant - a very attractive dinner menu with strong French influence, adequate choices and beautifully cooked (no easily prepared burgers or pizzas here) - not quite fine dining, but very high quality. And cleverly, the chef changes 2 or 3 dishes each day, so no problem if you're staying for several days. Breakfast is just as good. Overall, the Corner House is as good as it gets in Taunton within a reasonable price range.
