This is an old building, so think quirky shaped rooms and features, not boring square boxes. That doesn't mean that it is dated inside though, it has been decorated to a high standard, and is spotlessly clean and tidy, and tastefully furnished. Our room was bigger than we expected, with loads of space even though the (very comfortable) bed was huge. There are all the facilities that you might expect, such as tea, coffee, biscuits, fridge, room safe etc, but what was lovely was that there wasn't just a couple of tea bags and a pack of custard creams but a whole range of beverages and biscuits in the room. Our hosts were great; very friendly and welcoming, and happy to advise on the best way to see local attractions. The cooked breakfast deserves a special mention, not only was it outstanding in terms of quantity but most importantly it was freshly cooked and absolutely delicious. I'm going to say it's by far the best breakfast I've ever had in a B&B or hotel. Practically, the property is well situated to visit Dunster, Porlock and the surrounding area, there is parking to the rear, and the pub over the road is good for evening food and drinks. Genuinely really impressed with our stay here, and I think it will be our 'go to' for future visits.

Excellent Bed and Breakfast

There was a lovely welcome when I arrived. The room was first class with thoughtful touches such as fresh milk and orange juice in a mini fridge. For walkers on Exmoor there is a drying room too. The bed was very comfortable, and the shower was lovely and hot. The breakfast was very ample and delicious. I would definitely want to stay again.

Perfect location and great comfort

What a wonderful location to explore Exmoor and the coast. We had a relaxing 3 night stay, starting the day with a perfect breakfast. Although on a busy corner we were not disturbed by traffic at night. Welcoming, comfortable and freshly renovated.

I received a warm and friendly welcome after a long drive, followed-up with an excellent breakfast in the morning. I greatly appreciated the fact that ear plugs were provided in the room, because the walls are very thin and it was possible to hear pretty much everything going on in the room next door. Thankfully, the couple in there settled down at a reasonable time and I managed a decent night's sleep.

Wonderful !

A wonderful stay! Isy and Peter have created a lovely, relaxing home away from home. There were so many small touches and going that extra miles that most B&Bs fail to do. They were so accommodating and welcoming and with such a wealth of knowledge for the local area they are not short of brilliant recommendations. I truly believe that no one needs to look any further for a hotel in Exmoor, a brilliantly cooked breakfast, comfy beds and wonderful hosts what more could you ask for! We will be recommending to anyone that travels down this way!

Best stay ever!

Picked this Guesthouse just because it was in the right area, had a king size bed (back problems) and was a reasonable price with good reviews. We were blown away by the place from start to finish as it felt like everything you needed had been thought of. We had a pot of welcome chocolates, a large array of biscuits, tea, coffee, hot chocolate, a fridge with orange juice, milk and water and even biscuits, cleaning products and poobags for our dog. The bed was huge and really comfortable, good toiletries, sanitary products, cotton buds and pads all provided. Lovely games room with pool table, darts, etc and drinks available to buy. Towels left at front door for muddy paws if you needed. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious, cooked to order and our hosts were lovely. It it on a slightly busy road but as in most villages, no real noise at night and lovely pub across the road if you wanted to eat out, village shop and abundant walks. Thanks for a lovely stay 💐❤️
