The room was spacious and beautifully decorated. The staff were polite and very helpful. We stayed 2 nights the breakfast selection was incredible, I had a full English the first morning and a proper whole kipper on the second morning. We had dinner here 2 nights and the food was amazing. Located right next to Tarr steps, we walked during the day and visited Tarr steps early morning and evening when the day trippers had gone home. Altogether a fantastic stay. One of the best places I have ever chosen on Booking.com.

If I had to be really petty maybe the outside lighting was a bit bright in our room. Maybe as we were at the end of the block we got lights on 2 sides but it was not really an issue.

My second visit to Tarr Steps and just as good as the first visit Set in a beautiful location right in the heart of the Exmoor National Park We took our young Labrador this time as it is so dog friendly All the staff are lovely, friendly, helpful and they all love dogs! The food at the restaurant is superb and not over priced You can walk straight from the accommodation to a multitude of beautiful walks We did the circular walk to Withypool along the River Barle - absolutely beautiful We will definitely be returning

We were able to use our car dog crate but meant lugging it out of the car to the room As it is so popular with dog owners the option of a dog crate in the room would be a great asset

Fabulous breakfast, cooked to order. Excellent location right next to Tarr Steps. Lovely touches in bedroom; home cooked biscuits, fridge with jug of real milk for hot drinks, several types of coffee maker; shampoo and conditioner in large refillable dispensers - not connected to wall so easy to use for both shower and bath users. Lovely view from window across fields with horse, pony and pheasants. Nice cosy bar and warm restaurant for cold evenings.

Mattress wasn't as comfortable as we would like, my husband said he rolled to the middle a bit. The evening food was excellent but for me the dinner options were on the heavy side and the fish dish was the only entree to change each night. It might be difficult for vegetarians staying several nights as there was only one veggie entree option which didn't change. when we commented upon this we were given the bar menu in addition to the retaurant menu the second night to give us more options which helped.

If you are searching for a place to stay in Exmoor, I highly recommend Tarr Farm Inn. After a recent stay, I understand why it receives so many glowing reviews – it is truly a wonderful place. Nestled at the bottom of a small valley by a tranquil river, the location is incredibly peaceful there is no phone signal, but they offer free Wi-Fi). The building is charming, lovingly decorated, and very cosy. It features a pub, restaurant, and plenty of comfortable indoor and outdoor seating. Lovely background music and ambience. They serve breakfast, lunch and evening meals. There is a wide variety of breakfast options and a three-course main meal in the restaurant is about £45/pp (excluding drinks) but worth every penny. All food was delicious. The staff were very welcoming, friendly, efficient, and helpful from making the booking to check-out. The bedrooms are in a separate purpose-built building, with some on the ground floor and others upstairs. They are decorated in a modern yet cosy style, are very clean and have everything you need – a comfortable bed, ample storage, fridge, drink facilities, modern bathroom with toiletries, plenty of plugs, and a lovely view over the rolling hillside. Despite the hot weather, the room remained cool with large windows you can fully open for fresh air. During the day, it is a popular spot due to the river, walking trails (along the river or up the hills onto the moors), and the pub/restaurant. Parking is limited, but there is a public car park a five-minute walk up the lane/hill (on the right). I parked there temporarily and moved my car to the Inn’s car park when spaces became available in the evening. Tarr Farm Inn is very isolated (no local village or bus route), so you need to drive (use TA22 9QA in your satnav to avoid ending up on the wrong side of the river). But that is part of its charm – it is a perfect getaway! Plus, it is so quiet at night, so you will sleep well and can enjoy a stunning night sky view.

Parking was a bit tricky during the day but no big deal as there were spaces in their car park in the evening/overnight.

Lovely rural location by the Tarr Steps. Dog-friendly b&b, with a useful little entrance area between our rooms (3&4) which served as a space to wipe dog paws and keep coats and leads, etc. Breakfast was very tasty - lovely sausages.

I was a bit disappointed, having informed the Tarr Inn well in advance, that the breakfast for a vegan lacked any thought (veg but no protein was offered - ie tomato and mushroom on toast). Offer baked beans! (He had mine!!) Vegan sausages are readily available and easy to keep in a freezer. No oatmilk at breakfast, either - such a shame. Apart from this, we really enjoyed our stay.

Everything was great. Very spacious, clean and well kitted out rooms with fresh milk in a fridge and a coffee pod machine as well as ample storage. The bathroom had those bits you might have left at home, like toothbrushes and combs. Excellent shower and extractor fan. The restaurant was cosy and comfortable with a warm atmosphere: very rare in hotels. Breakfast was divine. All staff were cheery and professional. The setting is idylic. I wish we were able to have stayed longer.

Room 5 was made up as a double using the 2 singles. That's usually fine, but we had one mattress a bit lower than the other and much softer. Our 15 year old in room 6 had a very comfy double bed and perhaps we should have been guided to have each other's rooms. We all slept well though.

The food was always excellent. Breakfast was beautifully cooked and delicious. The staff were very accommodating over letting us choose what we fancied from the menu. The bedroom had everything we could want and decor was of a good standard. The bed was very comfortable. Useful items in the en-suite such as toothbrush and paste etc

The only thing we can think of was the cold draught coming under the bedroom door which was open to the outside. The bedroom was nice and warm so not a real problem and we put a coat by the door to help.

Exceptional food and the Inn was beautiful in a wonderful location. The room had some tired aspects in the bathroom but it was comfortable and warm with a lovely view of the horses in the fields across the way. Milk wasnt available in the room and no mention in check in but the complimentary cookies and Gin and Tonic were nice treats. I would definitely return to this wonderful location.

We stayed here as the locatiion is excellent and were delighted that the inn has excellent, friendly staff and they have thought of so many "extras" to ensure the stay was memorable. Our complimentary breakfast was lovely and we ate in the convivial restaurant which serves delicious meals - our thanks to the chef; it was my wifes birthday and we both had a great meal.

The painted MDF panels and cuboard doors in the bathroom were a little jaded.

Breakfast was very good , lovely fruit compote with Greek yoghurt. Much appreciated that it wasn’t sweetened.

Only 2 quibbles. One lunchtime we had French onion soup which was so peppery that I found it inedible. One breakfast I had an omelette spoilt by being far too salty - my husband tried it and agreed. I think the chef should remember that over seasoning is not a good way to present dishes - you can always add salt and pepper if needed but not remove it.
