Dunster's #1 place to stay
Traffic and car problems meant we got there late, but they were very accommodating. Really nice couple running the place, really comfortable bed and great breakfasts.

Wonderful Exmoor Hotel
What an amazing hotel. Jane and James are excellent hosts, very friendly, and their attention to detail cannot be faulted. The rooms are very comfortable, and have little extras such as tiny tubes of suncream, cologne and soft fluffy towels. There is also fresh milk, squash, extra tea and coffee available at all times, including a fridge to store cold drinks and water. Our breakfast was very tasty along with fresh fruit, yoghurt and home made compotes. Jane makes great omelettes! I cannot recommend Exmoor Hotel enough and look forward to visiting again.

Great village stay
We were made very welcome, tea and cake on arrival. All staff very friendly. Breakfast was delicious, including smaller portions, which were great. Decor, very tasteful. Ideally situated in the village, a few steps from Dunster Castle. Would thoroughly recommend a stay here. Several excellent pubs and restaurants are close by, including Hathaways and the Foresters.

Most enjoyable, thank you James & Jane.
The Guest House was lovely, clean, comfortable, very friendly hosts, would stay there again. On your Hotels. Com website you mentioned parking but you did not mention parking on the road with Dunster being a small village so sometimes had to pay in a car park away from the Guest house, it didn't help as my wife has a blue badge.

We're glad that you enjoyed your stay. As you have pointed out, unfortunately their site (unlike our own!) doesn't make it clear that it is on street parking, but the good news is that there are plans to reinstate the dedicated disabled bay almost opposite.

The room was beautiful, very comfy and impeccably clean. The staff were really friendly and gave us helpful tips about the local area. The breakfasts were delicious! We would very happily stay here again. Due to the Covid situation the staff didn’t come into our room during our stay to change towels etc, but we actually preferred this; we felt like we had a lot of privacy. The system for providing tea and coffee refills for the room worked really well.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Exmoor House. On arrival we were offered tea/coffee and cake. The breakfast was delicious and freshly cooked each day. The room was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The owners were friendly and accommodating. The location is walking distance to the local town and to Dunster Castle. We'd happily stay again.

Super stay in a beautiful place
Bedrooms are beautifully decorated and very well equipped with great attention to detail. Communal rooms also very well presented. Super breakfast, freshly cooked to order with lots of choice. Staff very helpful and knowledgeable about the local area. WiFi and phone signal are intermittent in Dunster so be aware of this if you are staying in the area. Only drawback is no private parking and the free on street parking outside is limited but overall highly recommended.

We appreciate your comments and taking the time to review your stay. Dunster is a medieval village and they didn't take into account cars. In addition to the on street parking we also have a small number of passes to the nearby national trust car park, and we have always managed to get guests parked.
