We had a pleasant meal here, on a lovely day outside. The soufflé was delicious, although we would've preferred homemade chips. Minor thing really. Would recommend stopping.

Ok, it's great tasting food for sure, but can get a bit noisy when busy due to the wooden decorated design inside. But it gets busy because it's good. Always best to book. Cater for parties.

Our party of 9 thoroughly enjoyed our lunch at the Elms. Atmosphere was good, food was excellent and the waitress service was excellent too. A very nice restaurant to wine and dine your party in.

This is the place to go for something different. The place is light and airy with plenty of space between the tables. The service is excellent. The menu gives you the opportunity to try something different. I really recommend this as a place to go and try.

HOLM Somerset

Holm was a great experience! The hotel is very nice and the staff are lovely. The food is superb and served in portions one can enjoy without having to miss dessert (due to over-eating). It’s an experience, and I for one want to go back again - soon! One thing to note is that there’s no hotel parking, due to its location, but there’s a nearby free car park.

Just back from a great weekend away at HOLM in South Petherton. This is your quintessential trendy restaurant with stylish rooms in rural idyll type place. The food in the restaurant is good. It’s taster menu only - an experience - and as you would expect of this kind of foodie place, the dishes are rich and experimental. We didn’t love all of them but the potato soup with ragout and the duck main were very very good. The rooms are stylish and minimalist and perfectly comfortable. The staff are attentive and friendly. The surrounding village and wider area really is a beautiful part of the world. If you are looking for a romantic getaway with a partner or group of friends I’d thoroughly recommend HOLM.

We visited after reading good reviews, and came away really impressed. The town is small but a bit of a hidden gem, and this place is a fantastic addition. We did a Sunday lunch and the food was excellent, really nice touches in all the dishes - elevated but not overly fancy. Service was very friendly, and the dining area was roomier than expected (not trying to squeeze people in which I hate) and had a buzzy atmosphere. We will definitely visit again next time we are in the area.

We had an excellent time here enjoying the outstanding tasting menu for my partner’s birthday. Every aspect was pure perfection - huge credit to the people who manage this place, the kitchen and the front of house staff. They’re all so on point, highly recommended!

This was such a special evening. From the moment we arrived we were warmly welcomed by Sean. The room was beautiful and so comfortable. The meal was spectacular. We had the tasting menu and it was delicious. I loved the pasta dish and the torched mackerel but every dish and every mouthful was perfect. The restaurant was beautiful and there was a great atmosphere. The service was spot on. So attentive but not stuffy. Annie looked after us so well and she was so friendly and informative. The breakfast the next morning was also next level. Such a special stay and we can’t wait to return.

Elliott came out at no notice to deal with a problem in our holiday let. He was very professional, diagnosed the issue, quickly fixed it, gave us advice on future upgrading works that we are planning, and was very reasonably priced. Thank you!

Had a lovely lunch here today. We both thoroughly enjoyed our meal (black pudding, hash brown & poached egg stack with a sauce to die for) and the service was excellent. In future Cafe 50 will be our go to cafe whenever we are in Yeovil.

Lovely experience in Cafe 50 today. Lots of options, many vegetable heavy meals which I like. All day breakfast too which is perfect for late risers like me! Everything beautifully presented. I'd recommend a pinch of salt while preparing the dishes, I had to add quite a lot when eating.

Ordered home cooked cottage pie with potatoes and veg for myself and a vegan falafel meal for my partner. Lovely delicious home cooked meals at great prices. It's a shame that we were just passing through otherwise I'll be eating here all the time!

We were staying in Yeovil for a wedding and were on the lookout for some breakfast. Online reviews led us here. Parking round the back in a local authority car park or just round the corner on street. Lovely people, great service, cool atmosphere and the food was banging. Good veggie / vegan options but the full English plates going to other tables looked stunning. I like the 'dado rail of fame' ... Alan Titchmarsh, among others have visted and autographed it. Nice touch. Would definitely come back here. Thanks

From initial quote through to works being completed, it has been a seamless, proficient and professional service. Team turned up every time they said they would and have completed all the work on time, on budget and to a very high standard. Trustworthy, respectful and a pleasure to have in our home. Will in particular has been amazing with nothing being too much trouble. Will definitely use again.

Relay Electrical Services recently carried out the electrical work during the total refurbishment of our home. The work included complete rewiring, supply and fit of all internal and external lighting, all electrical work for the air source heat pump and UFH, electrics for two bathrooms including ventilation and electric Velux, and all work relating to boosting the wifi signal and tv sockets etc. The costs matched the quotation and all the certified work was done to a high standard, often in tough conditions during a very wet winter. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Craig, Will and all the team. Many thanks.

Relay electrical services recently supplied the electrics to a barn conversion to a holiday cottage. They did a terrific job, always polite , turn up on schedule and do first class work in a professional manner. The internet supply was poor and they advised and fitted starlink to both cottages which has made an incredible difference and much appreciated by paying guests. I am in discussion with them concerning supplying the farm with PV and am impressed at their knowledge and appreciate their advice. I spent my entire working life in house building and renovation and have had several very good electricians working for me. Relay however stand head and shoulders above even the best. Can highly recommend them . Thanks Craig, Billy and all the team.

Can’t speak highly enough of Billy and his team. Highly responsive, quick to resolve our problem, recognised the urgency of our situation and kept us informed all the way through the process. Told us when he could do the work and did exactly what he had promised - a pleasure to work with!

Having completed a number of small and major projects for us I can 100% recommend Relay Electrics for any type of electrical work. Bill and Craig's team are second to none with an eye for detail that wouldn't be found elsewhere. All projects undertaken have been seamless from start to finish, they have great suggestions for work that could be done as well as taking on and establishing ideas that we have had. All in all a very pleasurable experience with no complaints!

Starks Electrical & Solar

Unit 5, Old Manor Farm, 187 Leigh Rd, Wimborne Minster, Wimborne BH21 2BT, UK

P: 01425 460419

Just had 21 panels (split between east and west of my roof) and a large battery fitted by Russell and his team. The plan being to maximise the amount of solar I generate and combine this with a heat pump (being fitted soon by a separate national installer). I got quotes from a number of solar installers before opting for Starks electrical. Whilst their quote was competitive the thing which stood out most with this company was their knowledge and experience in fitting solar and I liked that they were a local company. I was able to make tweaks to my proposed system and get lots of free advice from Russell’s team so by the time the install went ahead I was really confident about my purchase. There was absolutely no ‘hard sell’ and I was given options for various systems at different price points which was great. The installation was very smooth. The team who did the install were great - worked really hard, were polite courteous and really nice guys who had years (decades!) of experience in solar installs. The system is now working great - even in October! I highly recommend this company.

Starts Electrical have gone above and beyond with my new solar panel installation. They were professional, tidy and the price was fair! I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again. Russell the business owner made me feel at ease from start to finish and was always available to discuss any questions I had!

Great service from Russell and his team. Everything was completed very neatly and within the timescale I was given. The electrician then came back separately to assist with my setting up the app so I can monitor as necessary. My electricity usage is now an average of 3p per day.

From first contact with Russell and his team at Starks service has been first class. The whole process from survey to fitting and commissioning was completely seamless. Russell fully explained the whole process, the fitters were polite and respectful, communication throughput was excellent. Price was very competitive. Highly recommended.

From start to finish it has been a pleasure to use your company to install the solar panels, Battery and EV charger. Was a couple of small issues along the way but you know you have chosen a good company when they pick up the phone , answer message and call you back.

Great experience learning some new games with the staff speeding up the process by explaining the basic rules to us. Incredibly delicious pizzas - classic options like pepperoni and BBQ chicken and other more unique ones such as Mediterranean and spinach and mushroom. Booking is a must as it's a very popular venue and 3 hours is recommended as the time flies!!

UPDATE: Since I wrote the review below, Board Cafe have started doing food, and it is excellent. The sourdough pizzas are among the best we've had anywhere. You're here for the games, and they have a super selection of quality games in very good condition. You want to be guided in how to play new ones, and the staff are genuine enthusiasts and generous in the help they offer. You'll sustain yourself with decent drinks at a good price, and they've got that covered - the coffee is barista quality, and friends who like that sort of thing said they love the milkshakes. There are alcoholic treats, too ... perhaps for customers who aren't as competitive as us! They are building a kitchen upstairs to do food in future, and in the meantime they have been inventive with the cake selection and snack menu. We got the "three bowls for £5" offer this time - sour jelly sweets, chocolate buttons and Doritos, which helps create a party atmosphere. We've been here with a group of 10, twice in a group of 4 and today as a couple, and each time we've had a great experience (see picture of Wingspan, a lovely game based on the idea of building a bird reserve). Book your table in advance - this is a very popular place.

This was an incredibly fun and entertaining experience. They have every board game you could possibly want from quick casual games to prolonged involved experiences. The food is also good and sold at very reasonable prices. I can wholeheartedly endorse this location and I will be returning in the future.

Ben came to fit a bathroom extractor fan and I was particular in what I wanted (a high extraction rate, loft installed in-line fan, on a timer). I'm pleased the quote was competitive, the communication excellent, and the job was done to a very high, clean standard. My bathroom is now steam free. Ben has also secured a much bigger quote to fully re-wire an entire property for me.

Ben and his staff are very friendly and helpful. They were quickly able to arrange a date to come and see what needed doing. Then I was given a wide range of dates for the work to be done, at my convenience. Ben arrived promptly and only took as long as he said he would to complete the work. He answered my questions, both in person and by email and cleaned up afterwards. We had four different lights that needed to be dealt with and now they all look lovely and work perfectly. I have already found them so useful. Would highly recommend Yeovil Electrics.

Dan is one of the electricians who works at JW Electrical Solutions. I had a few small jobs but they were important to me. Dan just got on with the work and checked that I was happy with each one as they were completed. I would definitely want JW Solutions to carry out any work that I might need in the future.
