After our stay, all I can say is this hotel is a hidden gem nestled in a deep Exmoor valley. The rooms were spacious, modern, and offered a lovely range of products in the bathroom. The view over the valley was absolutely breathtaking, but the dining experience did leave something to be desired. The hospitality was top-notch, and the location near the river where kids can play added a special touch to our visit.

The hotel is nestled in a stunning location in a deep Exmoor valley, offering a serene setting for a relaxing getaway. The rooms boast a fantastic view over the valley and are equipped with a lovely range of products in the well-appointed bathrooms. While some rooms feature a nice big bath ideal for unwinding, the overall ambiance and view enhance the stay. However, the dining experience with American-inspired dishes might not cater to all tastes. The service excels in hospitality and housekeeping, ensuring a pleasant stay overall.
