Taunton, United Kingdom skyline: the 24 most iconic buildings and best views in Taunton

It's hard to find anything that's free these days, and it's really hard to find something free that is this good! It was suggested to us by a local when we found ourselves in the area on a wet day. It's a genuinely well thought-out, structured and filled museum with a great balance of information, story, activity and exhibits. Excellent place to spend a few hours, and please be sure to donate a few quid each as you leave.

A good museum in the castle. Plenty of exhibits. Well designed galleries and a friendly face on arrival. Nice cafe with tables in & out. One of the best attractions in Taunton, and: it's free! ( Donations welcomed )

We went in with low expectations of this museum after we'd be told by someone it was just a hotel. The layout of the museum is very well thought about and we'll put together. With an almost minimalist style throughout style wise it gives you a chance to fully embrace the stocked displays. The staff were really friendly, there was no push for sales or donations (obviously we did a donation anyway). There was a kids walkthrough which kept them full emersed throughout which cost £1. It took about an hour and 20 minutes I think to get around, looking at everything but stopping to read about the things that we found particularly interesting. I'm sure you could spend more time if you truly wanted to but this was good for us. I would say if you are visiting Taunton for the day, it's definitely worth a walk around. Particular highlights for me were the revolution section as I was completely unaware of this and the heart box and the very large shoes.

A wonderful museum with its own history. Nice staff. Entrance is free, but you can donate from £5. You can also drink coffee and have a snack on the museum grounds.

We went into the museum simply to get out of the rain and ended up staying about three hours. The displays were extremely interesting and very professional and informative in presentation. Entrance price was by donation. I would highly recommend this hidden gem if you are in the Taunton area.

Very interesting and informative of the Somerset area with lots of interesting fossils and artifacts. Well worth a visit and they do not charge for entry although do suggest donation which we were more than happy to pay.

Found myself in Taunton with a few hours to spare, so thought I would visit. Really glad I did. A fantastic museum rich in content, and full of surprises. Staff were friendly and helpful and the cafe offered good food at reasonable prices. Even if you have lived in Somerset all your life you will discover something new.

I love it here. Beautiful Medieval Church. Close on 1000 years old. Very peaceful with a lovely cafe. Volunteers run the cafe and the array of homemade cake are to die for. All too tempting as it’s part of The Church. Free entry. But cafe has hours of opening and closing. It’s also a nesting place for Peregrine Falcons. There is a webcam so you can watch them. There’s a clutch of 4 eggs now. And the parents taking it in turns. Do visit.

Two lovely ladies standing guard inside. It's late, I'm tired. Please refer to previous houses of the holy reviews. Now look at the pictures. Glory be to him/her on high.

Wow what a Church. The history is fantastic the touching of the pinkish pillars date from 1308 was very moving for me. What those stone pillars have seen over the the 700 odd year is quite incredible. If only they could talk. Everything within the Church is mind-blowing. This is English History at it's best. If you get a chance to see it for yourself you will not be disappointed. Wow, totally amazing. A must see.

An interesting visit to the Taunton Cathedral earlier, definitely worth taken Photos too! 🤔 📸 ⛪️

Amazing church to look inside. Lots of military remembrances in the soldiers corner. Sir Robert Gray , Peregrine Falcons nest to see , and the St Mary Magdalen. Plus a very good coffee shop and staff very welcoming. Thank you 🙏

Visited here today during a trip to Taunton. Extremely welcoming without being overbearing lady greeted us and gave us a brief overview of the building. No pressure to donated upon entry. Coffee area and small gift shop inside the church. Stunning stained glass windows with wonderful detail. The wooden ceiling with angels each holding a different shield was a beautiful piece of art work in its own right. We were then invited to view via remote video link peregrine’s who were sitting on four eggs in a nest on top of the tower!..overall well worth a visit. Disability access throughout and disabled toilets / gender neutral toilet available. Parking could be in a public car park close to the church but this is quite small so I expect would fill up quickly so other public car park/s might need to be used. Pleasing grounds which are well kept around the building

This is a lovely old church, that has been at the heart of the town for a millennium. Recently given the title of Minster to reflect its importance. I've been before for a number of musical events, but on this occasion, it was to see the Gaia exhibition. I had missed the Moon exhibition previously, so was really keen not to miss this one. It didn't disappoint! The appearance of the globe in the middle of the church is quite stunning. You easily imagine how the astronauts felt as they looked down upon the "good Earth" from so far away. I actually found it a bit surprising that so many people didn't recognise the land masses. The cloud formations obscure quite a few coastlines, but even so, I thought that there was sufficient to allow people to identify continents, if not countries. I was particularly pleased to see some young children at the exhibition. This is their world too. As part of the event, they have a small display to promote local conservation efforts. It's worth checking out, as different groups are working hard with little publicity and they deserve a bit more credit. It's also worth pointing out that there is a Peregrine Falcon nest on the roof of the church, and the eggs hatched in the last few days. A live camera feed to a screen in the corner of the church allows you to watch without disturbing them. It's very popular!

Beautiful spot, a really lovely garden to walk around. Would definitely go back. 5 stars for the garden, 3.5 for the food. We went to the cafe, only a few vegan options, I have a very nice pea soup, the bread though was very dry. Husband had beetroot falafel salad and he was sure they were cauldron (brand) ones, not freshly made. Overall though, nice spot for lunch, good service and fairly priced

Our visit to the Hestercombe House and Gardens was a good morning visit just off M5. Currently being renovated it still offers an insight into the past of the house and previous uses, ground floor and couple rooms upstairs available, outside a good garden and walk through woods. Grounds a little parched after heatwave ( End of August) and need of TLC. Good restaurant on site with nice meals.

Hestercombe House and Gardens is a beautiful place to visit. The gardens are stunning, with small houses, lakes, and hidden paths through the woods. It was lovely to wander with friends before heading to the café for delicious food. The staff were very friendly, and I would highly recommend visiting.

Called in on our way home from Cornwall as it breaks the journey up. Only 10 minutes from junction 25 of the M5 and fairly straightforward to get here. We arrived around 11am and it was quite busy but still able to get a space.. Headed to cafe and had a nice pot of tea and cheese scone..(scone nice and warm but butter was too hard to spread,needed to soften first).scummy though. We then visited the house and we're greeted by some friendly ladies who gave us some information sheets to read on the brief history of the house. Most of the rooms are empty from furniture but their are display cabinets with items to view and loads of pictures and history facts to read. We walked the gardens at the front of house and then headed round past the orangery and walked all the way to the top of vast rear gardens and back down the other side which is higher up and you can look down from above the water cascade ,which unfortunately this time had no water running down for full impact..quite rough and steep in places but not too bad .

Friends have recently moved to Somerset and found this gem. They have joined so we got half price entry! There are so many delights to find along the well-kept trails and the formal gardens are absolutely stunning. We were very lucky with the weather as it was a beautiful sunny day. There's not an awful lot to see in the house, but it was obviously grand in it's day. The gardens are most certainly the highlight. Stunning views across the county.

Hestercombe is magical - I can't think of any other way to describe it. The grounds are wonderful - the gardens designed by Gertrude Jekyll are stunning at the moment. The air is filled with the scent of Wisteria which has the largest and most prolific blooms that I've ever seen. The woodland Estate is full of Bluebells, cow parsley, wood violets, birds singing and so many shades of fresh green of glorious trees. A place of joy and calm 😍😍

We enjoyed our day out at Hestercombe and our dog felt welcome too. The cafe served a good variety of food that well priced. My partner had the falafel salad and I had the first finger open sandwich that were well presented and tasty. We went back after seeing the beautiful gardens for hot drinks and tasty cake. You can go to the cafe without going into the gardens if you wish

We went to watch the double header women's & mens T20 we picked seats in rear of Trescothick lower stand to keep out of the sun as long as possible. Good view of game nice clear informative scoreboard and good entertainment throughout game and by a band between matches. Only disappointment price of drinks and food with queues needed a longer break between innings.

What a great atmosphere, Been for both men’s and women’s T20 and an England words ODI and everyone were have seen some great cricket. Food and drink very expensive though!

Something was wrong but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. I took a picture, walked a few yards..... and stopped to think, trying to determine the problem. Still...... nothing. Next picture, walk on, pondering my apparent dilemma. What on earth was it? Then it occurred to me. I'd travelled all the way to Taunton to watch ⌚️ a game of cricket but there was no game to see. I stood and watched the groundsmen for a few hours instead.

A beautiful day in the West Country, a well attended and great day's cricket, yet most of the catering outlets were closed. Possibly this was because the ground authorities thought it would all be over by lunchtime (this was day three) but no, the game lasted untill stumps on the fourth day. Sedgemoor Services did a roaring trade as Worcester supporters north up the M5. Loved the cricket and the view from high behind the wicket, but this famous old ground could do better.

Great place to watch cricket small ground lots of seating options. Well versed staff and happy to help, good cricket shop as well. Can be a bit patchy on food options when not a big event. Easy to access by train or road. Lots of interaction on vitality blast days and Metro cup events. Juniors are well catered for and made to feel welcome. Players are all approachable and happy to interact with the crowd. Great atmosphere at all times.

Good viewing. But buy a ticket via web site as you can’t get in except by the main gates where you can pay , other entrances are tickets only ( bar code scanner) and cheaper then turning up on the day. Refreshments are good and easy to find no cash card only. You can bring own snacks etc.

Attended Somerset Vs Lancashire match. Family day was also on. Only let down was that by 5pm, all the eateries had closed, and the bars lacked soft drinks and water.

Went there to visit on a week day, it was closed apparently. Although it said 'open' on the website 👎

It was shut so we have no idea what it is like. It has been suggested to me that u phone if u want to visit and disregard their website

Great spot for bit of county cricket! Decent drink and grub 👍

Fantastic Museum - went with the kids for my birthday! Thanks!!!

A comprehensive history of cricket. Knowledgeable staff.

Museum

Great day out

Beautiful church. But the best part was the organist who took us through to show us how everything worked. He was so proud of everything. Such a lovely man. Didn't get his name but thankyou.

Finally I've found a house of the holy which was doing something wonderful for the community. Rip out the pews and fill the spaces with people taking blood for those who need it. Even had a little place for the kiddies to play at the back. We still had the windows, wood and stone but three cheers for the blood transfusion service.

Due to my child having autism, we couldn’t enjoy our family meal due to unsociable hours of bell ringing. The St James Church clearly have no regards for people with disability. Extremely disappointed.

lovely upbeat family service with band and christening. the new minister Fabian reached out to all ages. welcoming congregation for two strangers, us. I like the comfy chairs. there is some restrictive views of the front, thriving churc h with lots of events at first impression.

I have only ever been here to donate blood so I turn up here every 4 months or so and will continue to do so as long as the donations remain there. Its a very nice church. If ever I was to try out the whole religious thing and attend a church.. Don't see why this one wouldn't do!

Go there every 3 months or so to Give blood. A great service from the NHS staff. Don't go there for any other purpose therefore unable to rate it for that.

The school it self isn't so bad but the head is not understanding in anyway.... he is fast to accuse people and put a label on a person ie a bully. Yet he feels it appropriate to throw lines at you like "after all the help we have given your family". The school used to be a wonderful place but now sadly it's not bulling had gone up, there is a really bad headlice problem school wide! And supporting children with extra needs can at times be overlooked by almost 5 years! And 2 years of bulling with physical marks as proof... year 6 is a terrible year the children are made to feel as if there best efforts are not good enough and are always pushed for more and more, the amount of homework is a joke.... if you choose to send your child here I would keep a close check on there emotional state as this is something that the school struggle to support with after they have caused it..

It has lots of shops and is good for clothes,style, food and gaming

Taunton: The Beige Heart of Somerset Taunton is the sort of town you pass through on the way to somewhere more interesting, then immediately forget — like an unwanted layover in the middle of a conversation. It’s the kind of place that feels like it’s permanently sighing. If towns had personalities, Taunton would be a middle-aged man in a fleece jacket saying, “Well, it’s not much, but it’s home,” while stirring instant coffee in a chipped “World’s Best Dad” mug. To be fair, Taunton tries very hard. It has a castle (sort of), a cricket ground (which people are weirdly passionate about), and a shopping centre that bravely insists on existing despite all available evidence suggesting it shouldn’t. The town is best described as “adequate”. It’s not bad. It’s not good. It’s just there — like a filler episode in a TV series no one asked for. Let’s begin in the town centre, where the architecture swings wildly between medieval remnants, post-war concrete slabs, and a few panicked attempts at modernisation that look like someone let an AI redesign a Wickes catalogue. There’s a pedestrianised high street that looks like it gave up halfway through its own regeneration project. You’ll find all the usual suspects: Greggs, Boots, a suspicious number of vape shops, and at least three charity shops per square foot. It’s the Bermuda Triangle of middling retail. Cricket, of course, is Taunton’s big claim to fame. The County Ground is the town’s pride and joy, and on match days the place hums with the sound of gentle applause and overpriced cider. It’s the kind of sporting event where someone in chinos will discuss spin bowling with the intensity of a hostage negotiator. Whether or not you care about cricket is irrelevant — in Taunton, it’s a lifestyle choice, like owning a Labradoodle or developing an opinion on compost. There’s also the castle, now a museum, where you can marvel at ancient relics, medieval weaponry, and wax figures that look like they’re plotting to murder you in your sleep. It’s oddly charming in a low-budget historical drama sort of way. Outside, you’ll find a quaint little garden and a gift shop that sells jam and anxiety in equal measure. Taunton markets itself as the gateway to Exmoor, which is a bit like being the porch of a very nice house. Yes, it leads to beautiful countryside and windswept moors, but that doesn’t mean you want to hang out on the doormat. You use Taunton as a launchpad, not a destination. It’s Somerset’s departure lounge. Culturally, it’s… well, it exists. There’s an arts centre somewhere, occasionally showing plays written entirely in metaphor and performed to audiences of seven. The library is solid, if you enjoy the smell of beige carpet and the low murmur of pensioners Googling ailments. There are some lovely parks, too — Vivary Park, for example, where you can watch toddlers chase pigeons while teenagers vape ominously in the bushes. And the nightlife? Picture three Wetherspoons, a suspiciously sticky nightclub, and a kebab van called something like “Wrap Me Tender”. It’s not so much a scene as it is a situation. Friday night in Taunton feels like everyone in town simultaneously decided to drink through the pain of their postcode. Still, there’s something endearingly inoffensive about Taunton. It’s the hometown equivalent of a supermarket lasagne: serviceable, familiar, and occasionally a bit soggy around the edges. People are friendly, the countryside’s close, and you can usually get a seat on the train. It’s a fine place to raise children, or slowly become one of those people who owns an allotment and says “ooh, that’s come up nice” about courgettes. So, if you find yourself in Taunton — lost, possibly, or being punished by fate — don’t despair. Buy a sausage roll, nod politely at some cricket, and try not to make eye contact with the seagulls. You won’t remember much about your visit, but you won’t be traumatised either. And in Taunton, that’s about as good as it gets.

Pleasant clean shopping arcade. Has a few good independent shops here too which is nice to see. Many shopping in smaller towns suffer from long term vacant units. Thankfully Taunton's Orchard isn't one of those. In the only empty one I did see they had implemented a clever idea by covering the front with a full size print of a florist shop.

Very easy to find lots of available spaces very cheap,lifts was easy to use as I had a child with a wheelchair

Lovely and beautiful place. Lots of shops to buy things

Lovely place to visit while we were on our holiday shops were fab and Taunton town centre was lovely 😍

Never bought anything from there, so I guess it’s just a money laundering scheme…

Two years ago my husband and I had the most delicious afternoon tea at the castle. I now live in Gloucestershire but my friend lives in Minehead and whilst visiting her for her birthday I wanted to surprise her with an afternoon tea. I have to say: the afternoon tea which was served on Tuesday 15th of August, was VERY disappointing ! Although the websites promise "delicious homemade cakes and pastries" there were for each of us 1 dry peach cake, 1 raspberry macaron (which was not fresh), 1 chocolate macaron and 2 massive scones (probably to make up for the lack of other nice things) ... NO selection of cakes , NO pastries. I reached out to the Castle via email with pictures attached and although I received a reply, it was defensive and rather more an aknowledgement than an effort to make it right. I have attached a picture of what we received - this was for the 2 of us. If you look at the stand: massive scones (= fillers) and only 1 cake and no pastries or mousse ... If this picture was on their website, I would NOT have booked. The Afternoon Tea was missing all the finesse of an "indulgent afternoon tea" (as described on the website) and in my opinion this was not worth the £49.90 I paid for it. I was embarrassed towards my friend as this was my treat for her birthday. The service was very good: we were welcomed and the girl who served us was very friendly - based on the food, I would have given a 0 star review but because of the friendly service I made it a 1 star.

Absolutely loved it. Very busy, hard to find a car space. Lovely restaurant, excellent food. Very large garden centre with a good range of water fountains and bird baths. Staff very helpful and friendly. Definitely recommend

We have come twice in a week and had the most fabulous experience both times. The food and drinks are lovely, and the service is incredible. Special shout out to Beth and Eve, they ensured our time here was lovely. Would recommend to anyone visiting the area!

I recently visited Monkton Elm Garden Centre, and I must say it was an exceptional experience. From the moment I entered the premises, I was greeted by a beautiful and well-maintained garden with an extensive variety of plants and flowers. The vibrant colors and pleasant aromas immediately set the tone for a delightful visit. my visit to Monkton Elm Garden Centre was nothing short of exceptional. The friendly staff, extensive product range, and outstanding quality of plants and flowers exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend visiting this garden centre for all gardening enthusiasts and anyone looking to enjoy a peaceful and inspiring atmosphere. It's a true gem for both experienced gardeners and beginners alike.

Found good quality plants and lots of variety. There is a nice restaurant as well.

Toilet good. Roast food good on Sunday. We liked the animals around the pond and the play park.

Went to Monkton Elm for coffee today and the service was terrible. Went up to the counter to order 3 members of staff stood there 2 young girls looked at me and ignored me I can except that maybe it wasn’t their job but a good morning would of been nice eventually an older lady served me. To top it all this is what we were served.☹️ If this is what you call service I was not impressed. Uh Thank you for your reply but I didn’t mention about having to wait it was about manners and being respectful I would never have worked anywhere and totally ignored a customer just a simple smile or a good morning or to be told someone will be with you in a while would be acceptable not to be totally blanked . Also you never mentioned the state of the coffee we were served did you think that was okay at least bring a napkin to mop it up or replace it. I wish you luck with teaching your new staff how to be polite to the customers I would have thought that would be common sense .

Just popped in for some food. 11:25 at the till to order, having a dog with us my partner went to order but wasn't sure of the table number, was assured we could still order breakfast at that time. By the time she confirmed the table it was 11.32 and was told we couldn't order breakfast. Looking at the menu the next main menu states 12:00 onwards. Can't be bothered with poor politics you have just lost my custom and will ensure I shop elsewhere in the future

We love Woodlands Castle, it is situated on the outskirts of Taunton, Somerset and is the perfect location for a country wedding. We had the privilege of photographing a wedding here recently which is a dream come true for the both of us as it is such a beautiful setting for wedding photographs. Set in private grounds with the prettiest 17th century country house, beautiful parkland for photographs (and the fact we live 10 minutes away!) makes this one of our favourite venues in Somerset! The staff were friendly and very professional and made sure the wedding day ran smoothly, we look forward to returning again soon to photograph another wedding.

My favourite place for a meeting. Have visited here many times now with my company Lifetime Training, including today ( Jess looked after us very well - thank you). Lovely dining room area suitable for a meeting of 20 or so people, and lots of smaller spaces that can be used for groups/working space. The beautiful environment inspires relaxed, positive, and productive meetings. The lunches offered are simple but enjoyable and much better than the limp sandwiches you find on offer elsewhere. Totally recommend.

My husband and I wanted a church wedding but chose this incredible place to hold our wedding reception. They were magnificent from start to finish! Our personalised wedding planner, Bella, and the team there could never do enough to help us in the lead up to the big day. They tailored everything we wanted to our hopes and our budget and made us feel that we were their only clients because they were so attentive! On the day itself, traffic meant we were running late from the church, this wasn't a problem. The itinerary for the day was orchestrated with smooth ease, the different meals for children, vegetarians etc. were sorted without a second glance. They even catered for my long-term allergies with no extra cost or fuss. You'd imagine that would come with a hefty price tag but another amazing thing about this beautiful place is that it is really a steal compared to the other venues around and there are no hidden charges, everything clearly laid out for you! It was the best day of our lives!!! Thank you Woodlands Castle!

I've attended 3 Weddings here this year, each to their own has been brilliant. Very well organised, staff are always friendly. Such a great setting for Weddings & other events such like.

Had our wedding here September 2016 and the amazing but the staff really made sure it was a day to remember. Beautiful location and grounds that all our guests enjoyed and the staff couldn't do enough for us. Especially Roxanne our wedding coordinator, she was fantastic, especially as we had only 13 weeks to plan! Thank you Woodlands for the best day ever!

Nice venue but utterly abysmal with approx 100 diners waiting carried out by only 4 youngsters so the last table was served about an hour after the first! Quality was non existant with my Mushroom risotto consisting of about 3 chopped mushrooms in a good mush of rice with a tasteless paper like attachment. I had to complain three times before anyone came and by that time the pudding of solidly baked tart with a minute scraping of filling with a single raspberry had arrived. My dinner probably cost about £2 and the cost was £40!

I've been to the last two tribute nights here and had a great time at both. The staff were so friendly and it was easily accessible for my friend who uses a wheelchair. Great atmosphere and doesn’t cost the earth. Can’t wait for the next one!

Went in to this costa and didn't feel it was at all up to the standards I have experienced with many other Costas. The first issue was the girl serving was joking around with her colleagues rather than paying attention to her customers and dealing with our order. After she put the tea and coffee on the tray we had to remind her about our pastry. I went to the toilet and it was filthy. What is it about the big corporate companies and their inability to provide clean toilets?

It’s definitely gone downhill because as you come in, you’ve got Caspers on the right and then an empty shop next to that and then you’ve got like a silver lady which is really good and a Warhammer shop the savers shop a charity shop that Sainsbury’s entrance and then costa at the bottom

You can find a variety of shops to meet your daily needs. Whether you're looking for groceries, household items, or personal care products, you'll find everything conveniently located.

We popped into sainsburys, then had a little look in the shops, there was an oxfam, jewellery shop and skate shop the we went to Costa, it is very close to other shops but parking close by is only 1-2 hours.

Always clean and tidy. Some lovely shops here.

Good centre good shops clean and tidy

Not much there. A decent Sainsburys.

Lovely place Disabled access Friendly people £22 entrance fee Great Day 👍

Lovely view. Nice place for meetings and events. Lots of parking

I was at a conference at Taunton Racecourse recently and have to say, I was pleasantly surprised. Loads of parking, easy to get to, and just a nice change from the usual hotel setup. The rooms were decent – spacious, well kitted out – and everything ran smoothly thanks to the staff, who were genuinely helpful all day. Food and drinks were absolutely fine too, no complaints there. Even though it’s a racecourse, it worked really well as a venue. The views were a nice bonus, and the whole day just felt relaxed and well put together. Would happily go back for another event.

Nice little track, couple of days before Cheltenham 2025,

Taunton Racecourse is a pleasant oval shaped racecourse, just outside the Somerset County Town of Taunton and easily accessed from both the A303/A358 and the M5. The course offers good facilities with the opportunity to be close to the horses at the parade ring and with the additional aid of the big screen very good viewing, especially as the runners come up the final furlongs of the race. A very pleasant day out!

Fabulous, county show. It may have rained, but it never dampand our day. Thank you.

Great venue for celebration conference. Good size rooms for workshops and good Conference area. Plenty of parking and easy to get to off M5. Hospitality was 5 stars though one very unfriendly staff member serving the tea and coffee.

I’m always late at writing reviews but a bit late than never. I had my wedding on 18/10/2024. Patrick is the one that does all the weddings and he is absolutely fantastic at what he does. He goes above and beyond to make sure that the wedding is everything that you have always dreamed of. He has got a great eye to detail with everything and even to the last small detail to make sure that the day goes as smoothly as possible and stress free. I could not thank him enough for what he done for us from start to finish. I will 100% recommend him to any of my friends that are getting married in the future

My sons wedding was fabulous Patrick is the wonderful man who over saw everything for them and he went above and beyond to make their day and night perfect,the venue was amazing everyone had an absolute ball and would recommend it to anyone,however small or large your budget Patrick will make it special

I recently had my wedding reception at Taunton Rugby Club and we had a fantastic day. Pat was so helpful from start to finish, he promised us a great day and we certainly had one!! We had so many compliments on how good the food was and all of the staff on the day/night were great. Our plan was to have a fun wedding and the team at the rugby club definitely helped to make this happen! A special thank you to Pat for being so helpful and reassuring leading up to the wedding and he did a fabulous job on the day. We are super grateful to have had someone like Pat with us throughout the process, as we did not have a clue how to organise a wedding! I would recommend Taunton Rugby Club to anybody looking for a wedding reception or any party / do! Thank you again X

Recently celebrated my wife’s 40th birthday at the club. The team were extremely helpful and the night was an amazing success. The food was superb. Thank you for helping make it such a wonderful evening

Me & my new bride had are wedding down the Rugby club what can I say but amazing, the venue looked stunning the food was out of this world & nothing was to much trouble I wouldn’t of wanted to be anywhere else the whole team was fantastic but Pat’s enthusiasm & attention to detail is second to none we was overwhelmed so thank you so much you made are day so special I’d certainly use the club again

Such an amazing atmosphere, all bar staff and management make everyone feel welcome, 10/10 would recommend to anyone!

Excellent venue to host a party! Food was absolutely amazing and staff were brilliant.

We were made very welcome to the evening event with Ruth Fazal.

A nice modern churglche with a great community atmosphere and always welcoming people

A place of pure worship to God and love from the worshippers !

The welcome is wonderful and very friendly.

Came here a few weeks ago to check out a card game club. Parking is a bit of a nightmare because of how narrow the entrance and alleyway is, especially in a larger car. Aside from that, friendly people and atmosphere.

Wonderful charamatic Church very welcoming and friendly people, located near the town centre and main shops, disabled parking and facilities, wheelchair accessible, creche and children's groups too. Lots on during the week also.

The people are friendly , They follow Jesus Christ teaching's . very welcoming .

Attended for a family wedding. Staff were very helpful even when we got stuck temporarily in their through-floor lift.

Wonderful family church. Great welcome and fantastic music. Sunday school for the kids (The Railway Children), and a nice cuppa after the service. Everyone's made to feel welcome.

Always been my church, so rather biased, extra toilets been added, a good addition.

Beautiful church, unfortunately my visit was to attend a funeral x

Lovely and spacious Victorian gothic church

Nice people in there church.

Ok if you're in to god

Great old church ×

Historical gem where Coleridge once preached. On a personal note, my great-great grandparents married here. Well worth a visit.

This is a beautiful building. The pulpit is where Samual Taylor Coleridge preached. The Chapel is well worth a visit sp come to a service. I am the Chapel Organist.

Coleridge preached there on May 13, 1798.

Beautiful building with a very welcoming vibe!
