Archangel

Archangel was first recorded as an inn in 1311, with preserved ancient walls and beams. This medieval property offers a busy bar and restaurant with a cocktail scene. Rooms feature free WiFi.

The quirky bedrooms are decorated in deep, rich purples and golds and include lots of luxurious details. Some rooms are located in the courtyard and feature power showers rather than roll-top bath tubs. Facilities include a flat-screen TV, Bramley bath products, real tea and proper coffee with fresh milk.

The stunning restaurant, which features beamed ceilings and French windows opening onto the courtyard garden, offers exciting dishes made with locally sourced ingredients. The stylish bar and adjoining lounge serve food throughout the day. The property hosts live music and cultural events.

Frome is a historic market town with cobbled streets and many listed buildings. The UNESCO World Heritage Site of Bath city centre is a 25-minute drive from the Archangel.
