    cozy ambiance
    local cider

    cozy, cozy, cozy

    I was enchanted by the cozy ambiance. The King Nice furniture and featured a super comfy bed perfect for a restful night. The outdoor beer garden provided a lovely space to unwind while enjoying local cider offerings under the sun.

    strongly recommend 😊❤️

    The rooms were warm with a very comfy 4 poster bed, the staff were helpful and very caring. It had a stunning and beautiful location very close to the river, Exmoor and a pub. Also, Exford Memorial Hall was 2 km away.

    comfort
    great dining
    slow service
    disappointment

    It's not all bad, but it's not all good.

    The King Suite was a good experience! Spacious and beautifully furnished, while dinner offered an excellent variety of real ales and great meals.

    Sadly, I experienced slow service during peak hours, which really took away from the overall ambience and enjoyment.

    service delays
    missing amenities

    One would expect great service here, but alas, I experienced slow service and missing robes and slippers. For such a so-called upscale hotel, you'd think they woudl ve been more accommodating. I almost considered a good review, but I just couldn't get over the disappointments, frankly. The atmosphere was decent, but that doesn't fix everything.

    dog-friendly room

    It was just a fitting option for a brief sojourn in Withypool with best value. The dog-friendly room made our stay enjoyable, great to relax comfortably. Consider trying the burgers instead of steaks for better value.

    super comfy bed
    cozy pub atmosphere

    would like to go back there again

    The room was fantastic with a super comfy bed, tv, and a mini fridge. Loved the spacious private bathroom with amazing toiletries. Breakfast was to die for and served with a smile. The cozy pub atmosphere with log fires made it even better. Plus, the dog was treated like royalty!

    The cozy pub atmosphere with rustic decor certainly adds a warm touch. Plus, the dog-friendly accommodations were a bonus, great for some quality time with furry companions in a comfortable setting.

    The food quality was hit or miss-some dishes came out overcooked or poorly presented, a letdown considering the extensive menu. The slow service during busy hours led to long waits, and the shower system, a Triton over the bath, didn't exactly provide an invigorating experience. While the location is picturesque, the overall experience was like it needed a bit more attention to detail and investment.
