Staff were really great. I stayed here for business so I needed to do more work in my room, the staff were happy for me to take my dinner up into my room and the rump steak that I had was incredibly good. I was also up and out in the morning too early for breakfast so the staff made me a packed lunch which was really nice of them.

Clean but dated room. Quiet location and free street parking. Dulverton has some lovely shops and places to eat. Ate in hotel at night on excellent fixed price menu. Breakfast was freshly cooked as well. Hood beers at bar although wine a tad expensive. Family run hotel and a warm welcome and attentive service. Friendly place to stay with a comfy bed.

Lovely and clean and friendly staff. Decor could do with an update and the bed was a bit hit and miss but understandable in these older world properties. Breakfast was very nice too

Decent accommodation in a beautiful village on Exmoor. The bed was comfortable and the full English breakfast very good as well. I had no problem parking just outside on the street. I liked the feeling of staying in a family-run hotel and they were all friendly and helpful. Would return!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Sadly when I arrived I was dismayed to discover that the bar and restaurant in the hotel were closed for renovation,it might have been better to know this before arriving after a 5 hour train journey. The owners did offer to make me a meal and that was kind but when I mentioned I needed to leave at 7:30 in the morning to get the train home I was informed that breakfast wasn’t served until 8!! I was able to, make a coffee in my room. Perhaps a reduction on the bill might have been appropriate but it wasn’t offered. The bathroom in my room was very basic and the room was far too hot, the windows were streaming with condensation, the bed was comfy and the bed linen was nice but sadly that’s about it.

Needs some TLC!

Friendly enough, pleasant staff. But this place is in desperate need of some renovations and a deep clean (downstairs especially) and new carpets (?) to remove the funky smell, which was not good. But lots of potential!

Weekend treat

This is an old building and part of the charm of the village. A lovely breakfast and welcome. The room was spacious and warm. The hotel does need refurbishment and some decoration but it is central and close to the shops and restaurants

Disliked: Cleanliness
Check in was a bit of a mix up despite having checked in online the day before. However, was resolved fairly quickly. The hotel is not modern but perfectly acceptable for an overnight stay. The room and bathroom needed a thorough spring clean. The bed was very clean and comfortable and towels were excellent. The tv was only marginally bigger than a computer monitor. Alas, the restaurant was closed due to the chef being on holiday which I was only advised of by email and advised to seek alternatives when checking in. By this time the restaurant next-door was fully booked and had to settle for fish and chip takeaway. Breakfast was OK but the table was not prepared properly.

Absolutely lovely staff. Made to feel very welcome. Very helpful and friendly. Very comfortable bed. Fabulous breakfast. Very good location. Very poor wifi in room. The decor in the room could do with a freshen up but it had everything I needed and the water was nice and hot for a bath.
