I was visiting some friends who were camping in Exmoor and had car trouble. Had to find somewhere last minute to stay. Luckily someone at the campsite knew the Stag Hunters Hotel. They were busy renovating the hotel when I arrived but gave me a very warm welcome. Even managed to find a new toothbrush and toothpaste for me as... More

Popped in on Sunday evening as I was informed they did off sales and tobacco. I waited a good 5 mins to be acknowledged (being a former publican found this felt lime an age) When I was served, I asked politely if what tobacco they had for sale having seen a pouch or two behind the bar.. I was abruptly... More

Just returned from a 2 night stay at the Staghunters in Brendon. Upon arrival, we immediately felt very welcome. The owners and staff were lovely, chatting away to us like we were regulars, not first time visitors. We had a dog with us who received lots of attention including dog biscuits on arrival. Other guests were friendly, and many were... More

The barman was very friendly and welcoming (despite the fact we were all fairly damp) and the food was enjoyable. The soup was reportedly... More

This is a wonderful place hidden in a valley below the main road with a stream flowing out to sea at Lynmouth and a wooded steep sided valley protecting you from the winds of the high moor. Choose a room with a balcony and you are awakened in Spring by the sounds of lambs and a strengthening morning chorus. This... More

I have just returned from a short break with my family as it was my 50th birthday celebration and I would just like to say what a fantastic place it was. Richard, family and staff were so welcoming and did their best to ensure that we had everything we needed and we felt very much at home. The rooms and... More

My wife and I have just returned from a weekend at The Staghunters. We were there for my better halves cousins wedding. From the moment we arrived we were treated like old friends returning to visit. Richard, his son Simon and the rest of the staff are all friendly and very helpful. The food was plentiful, and pretty darn tasty... More
