Location was so peaceful and tranquil, lovely green surroundings and accessible walks. We stayed in one of the dog friendly houses, facilities were good, a closed off bedroom, fully functional kitchen, adequate seating, large comfortable bed. The staff were amazing, all so friendly! Breakfast was exceptional, lots of healthy options to choose from and cooked to perfection. The pub is a 2 minute walk, great food and lovely staff there too.

As we were in the dog friendly house the furniture wasn't the nicest but that is to be excepted and I was quite grateful.

What a wonderful hotel! It's about 500 years old but has been very well kept. Everything is in beautiful shape with the old wood paneling shining and a cozy fire in the fireplace. Our room was large and very clean with a gorgeous view out the window. The staff were all very helpful and they have a good secure place to keep bicycles overnight.

We have no complaints at all!

I cannot speak highly enough of this wonderful place to stay in the heart of Exmoor. Shabby chic, charming, and expertly run. Andrew had boundless energy and is a font of knowledge and good local tips. The Whiskies are amazing with some rare and vintage gems. A 1970s Bruichladdich is one of the jewels in Andrews liquid crown. My room had a view up the Barle valley which was amazing to lie back at night and stare along. And the walk along there to Exford and Withypool is glorious. I wish I'd stayed longer. Or just got a job there and remained. Andrew is a natural and his team do him proud.

I didn't like leaving. Leaving got a 1 out of 10 from me. But the walk back across the moor lifted my heavy heart.

Such friendly staff who completely go out of their way to make your stay an enjoyable experience, and a cosy space with the wood panels rooms and open log fires. Great food on offer too if you choose to eat there.

Nothing really that I didn't like

The food was delicious and all freshly cooked.. The hotel is in a stunning location of Somerset, surrounded by beautiful countryside, completely on its own.. The staff are helpful, polite and happy in their work...and told us some amazing history of the hotel..

Nothing....

Andrew is a great host lot of informartion about walks and tries everything to make you feel at home. Dinner, beautiful manor house, nature all around.

Some maintainance issues the window and the bathroom could get an upgrade (starting with a new paint) Drinks and breakfast bit expensive

Location beautiful. The owner Andrew is very helpful with suggestions for walks. Room clean and bed very comfortable. Breakfast excellent . A relaxing place to stay. Liked the open fires in the lounges.

A meal on one night was poor but the matter was resolved quickly .

The staff here are brilliant, so helpful and friendly. They really care about the experience their visitors have and it feels like nothing is too much trouble. They even advanced me some cash when it turned out my taxi driver didn't take cards! My room was spacious and comfortable with a lovely view and a nice big bath to soak in after a day's hiking. The wood panelled bar is cosy and very well stocked. Try their own muesli for breakfast, it's delicious.

The wifi is not great but you are in the middle of nowhere so that's probably to be expected.

This was a well needed break for us and what we wanted was somewhere comfortable and in a beautiful setting. This hotel exceeded our expectations. From the outset we were looked after by the staff, nothing was too much trouble. Such a personal touch from all with a warm welcome from the proprietors. The rooms were wonderful, I had a four poster bed with glorious views over the valley. We were able to walk out on the moor from the hotel which was a bonus. The food was a joy too! The quirkiness of the bar was also a delight, so much on offer and we found sitting in comfy armchairs by the fire with our drinks deeply relaxing! Can't really fault anything. Would certainly go again. Thank you Simonsbath Hotel. You are a gem.

it was all perfect!

The rooms were big, the food was excellent, we ate both breakfast and in the evening, Walks around the valley go in different direction's, all beautiful. The hosts were perfect, even helping us a couple of hours after check out. We will definitely return. Thanks
