Enjoyed a warm welcome at this friendly hotel on the high street in lovely Dunster. Well worth a walk around the village with plenty to see and wonderful Exmoor countryside on your doorstep. Evening meals a bit disappointing but a top notch breakfast. Cellar bar area could be made more attractive but decent enough ale. The Stags Head nearby another... More

We have just returned from two nights at the Hotel, celebrating my Dad's 70th Birthday. We were made to feel very welcome right from the start and, throughout, the staff were friendly and helpful. The rooms were gorgeous- full of character. Our party had 3 rooms and each was decorated very tastefully. The bar was very quirky (we loved the... More

I love this hotel and the staff, from the moment you enter Tim and Chantelle make you feel very welcomed. There is a lovely cosy bar. Once shown to our room you realise the attention to details is second to none, the beds are so comfortable, the bed linen good quality, the chocolates on arrival are local, and the bedrooms... More

We stopped in for lunch having just visited Dunster Castle. The sandwiches were superb - imaginative and well presented - and the service was excellent. We ate in an attractive, well presented restaurant that had clearly been refurbished to a high standard. Would go again - highly recommended.

We have just stayed in a standard room on the top floor of the hotel. Didn't realise this when booking, there were 32 steps, so not good for anyone with mobility problems. So my advice is please check in advance. Sadly the toilet did not function properly, reported it on the first day and although temporarily fixed the same problem... More

I stayed for one night here on Good Friday and had such a lovely time I wanted to leave a review. The staff were so kind to me and even allowed my parents to have coffee and toast while I ate my breakfast, free of charge, as I was staying alone. The rooms are beautiful and extremely clean plus it... More

Was in the Conygar room. The room was great! Can understand why the breakfast is award winning. staff were very friendly and helpful - they were a real asset. Wifi was virtually nonexistent to smart phone, iPad and laptop. Fish and chips fantastic first night. On fourth night, moules and beef were average, though pancotta were excellent. Very warm in...
