Built by the Luttrell family of nearby Dunster Castle in 1780, this grade 2 listed building is ideally situated for exploring the medieval village of Dunster and the coastal town of Minehead. As a backdrop to the hotel, Exmoor National Park offers many diverse walks. Indeed, from the hotel it is possible to enjoy walks along coastal, moorland and woodland tracks.

Exmoor National Park boasts picturesque villages and hamlets, many of which have not changed in centuries. Admire the thatched cottages and local architecture or visit National Trust properties and beautiful gardens of this very special part of England, which you may have thought no longer exists. The hotel has a well-stocked garden and a large private car park with sufficient parking for all of our guests.
Services
The lounge has a variety of comfortable chairs and an abundance of reading material including books on local walks and sightseeing and always, beautiful displays of fresh flowers. Afternoon tea is always offered to our guests and in the cooler months, an open fire always makes a welcome sight.

The lounge also has a small, well-stocked cocktail bar and our wine list, whilst not comprehensive, offers a good range of wines from around the world to accompany dinner.We are particularly proud of the consistent quality of our house wines.
Food plays a vital part in the overall presentation of the hotel, which has gained a reputation for quality. An emphasis is placed upon a Mediterranean style of eating with an interesting variety of fresh fish and imaginative accompanying vegetable dishes. Traditional dishes feature too with classics such as Exmoor venison casserole in a filo pastry basket and lamb shank with a provencale sauce.

We were late arriving but as I had called ahead this seemed not to be a problem. We arrived on our Harley Davidson which did not seem a problem as some places frown upon such things. We were met with a very friendly and warm response which made us feel very welcome. Lovely room. Lovely place to stay. The bed was amazing and the whole place was spotless. Will stay again. Many thanks. Oh love the pond.

The most comfortable bed i have slept in by a country mile!
Immaculately presented hotel with a truly wonderful garden to enjoy too. The owner obviously takes great pride, and is passionate about the customers experience .
Short walk to immenities, and the sea front.
As a key worker, let down with a previous booking, the owner accomodated me without hesitation; thank you so much!
Without a doubt, i will be staying here again, thoroughly thoroughly recommended!

It was alright to use as a base to tour beautiful surrounding area. Breakfast not included in price which makes B&B not in the true spirit of the thing. Breakfast was in my opinion expensive.

Beautiful place. Very clean. Near local pub and around 20 minutes to the front. Hotelier is friendly and polite. Bed was firm but super comfortable. TV in our room was very small but bathroom was immaculate and lovely. Highly recommended.
