    great base for exploring exmoor's natural beauty and landmarks

    We had a spacious room with a comfortable bed, and it was just a short stroll to the stunning Exmoor Forest, perfect for our city strolls and park views, while the nearby Simonsbath Sawmill offered an interesting glimpse into the local history, making for a delightful weekend getaway.

    Relaxing Forest Retreat with Delicious Dining

    Enjoyed a cozy stay in a charming room with beautiful forest views. The dinner starters were delightful, though the main could use some improvement. Breakfast was satisfying! Pro tip, reserve a table to avoid wait times during peak hours.

    lack of shelf
    room heating

    I stayed at the Exmoor Forest Inn for one night and loved the cozy atmosphere. The lady at the front desk greeted me warmly, making me feel at home right off the bat. My room was spacious and had a comfortable bed. The bathroom had a bathtub, which was perfect for unwinding after a long day of exploring. Breakfast offered fantastic options, especially the smoked trout with scrambled eggs. The dinner menu was impressive. I enjoyed a homemade steak and ale pie that was delicious. The staff genuinely cared about making my stay enjoyable. Although the heating felt a bit too warm for my taste, I appreciated the option to open the window. While I didn't have issues during my stay, I noticed that a bathroom shelf could improve convenience. it was a pleasant experience in a beautiful location for walking, despite the minor warmth issue.

    will definitely go back there again

    The large double room was really cozy with a private bathroom, flat-screen TV, and nice toiletries. We were impressed by the exceptional food, especially the Sunday roast with perfectly cooked veggies. The location is ideal for walking, with trails nearby. The staff were super attentive, and the whole vibe is perfect for unwinding after hiking.

    delicious food
    early bar closing

    Had a fantastic time with friends! We explored two amazing spots for wild trout and salmon fishing, and the atmosphere was perfect for unwinding. The large spacious room was spotless and really modern. The staff were so friendly, and the food was delicious without breaking the bank!

    One downside was that the local bar closed a bit too early for a night out with friends.

    excellent stay with minor room adjustments needed

    The staff exhibited genuine hospitality, always ready to assist. The food quality exceeded my expectations, showcasing local ingredients brilliantly.

    The Small Double Room could benefit from a bit more space for comfort.

    Exceptional dining and nature escapade

    I had a wonderful stay, where the meals stood out for their freshness and creativity—definitely a highlight! The access to stunning walking routes right from the property made it easy to enjoy the scenic beauty of the forest. the dog-friendly amenities enhanced our experience, making it feel cozy and welcoming for our furry friend. I’d suggest improving the reception area for a more streamlined check-in process.
