Location of The Luttrell Arms Hotel in Somerset

The Luttrell Arms in Dunster, Somerset, England was built in the late 15th century and has been designated as a Grade II* listed building.[1]

The Luttrell Arms occupies the site of three ancient houses recorded from 1443, when two of them were conveyed to Richard Luttrell by William Dodesham.[2] There is no indication as to the age of these houses at the time, or what part, if any, they take in the building we see today. The building was formerly a guest house for the Abbots of Cleeve Abbey.[3]
