The personal attention shown by everyone - nothing too much trouble. That feeling of having 'come home ' and being able to leave all the cares and worries to someone else while you relax in a safe place.

What a gem.

What a great time we had, last minute booking, perfect accommodation, the cottage was perfect. Local area brilliant for walks, central to the whole of Exmoor. Communications with the hotel were very very good, we were very well taken care of. Breakfast was very satisfying and set us up for the day, there was even the option of a prepared packed lunch for when you go exploring. Many thanks to the team, well done all. We will be back. 😊😊😊

Enchanting Exmoor

Simonsbath House Hotel was not only in a beautiful spot, close by to many of Exmoor's treasures but the hotel itself was just lovely. With a warm welcome for both guests and their furry friends, the proprietors and staff were great , the food was fantastic and the ambience tasteful yet relaxed. Can't wait to go again...and it's rare I say that!

Welcoming hotel

This is a lovely characterful hotel with old-fashioned service and values. Might not be to everyone's taste but we liked it. Situated in the middle of Exmoor with great views, the room and ensuite were a good size and the bed very comfortable. Didn't try the restaurant but the included breakfast was excellent. The owners will give you any information on local walks etc or find out if they don't know.

Great place to enjoy nature.

We enjoyed our stay. The location is lovely but remote (that is good for me). The staff are friendly and helpful. Good quality breakfasts. Its great for walking and nature watching. Only niggle is that there is no WiFi in the rooms.

A lovely overnight in a beautiful location.

The setting is splendid in the middle of Exmoor. We had a very comfortable one night stay at Simonsbath House Hotel. Breakfast was good but the lamb at dinner was excellent! The staff were very welcoming and friendly.

Quiet weekend

Nice hotel, a little in need of tidying up here and there, but it didn't detract from an enjoyable night in one of the cottage apartments. Facilities were excellent and an ideal situation for us (couple and dog). Shame that dogs weren't allowed in the dining room but the pub down the hill was perfect for an evening meal.

very nice hotel in excellent location

The owner, Andrew, has been very helpful at giving advice on where to go and visit. Thanks to him, we feel like we've seen the best parts of Exmoor within 2 days. The only problem we had with the hotel is that we didn't have wireless in our room. We needed to go to the reception area to get internet connection. Otherwise, I highly recommend the place!

A great escape from city life

The location of this hotel is stunning - quiet, peaceful and surrounded by greenery. The room was big and the facilities well stocked. Some of the fixtures in the bathroom were a little old and attached at a jaunty angle, and the toilet "over flushed" and didn't stop trickling for the first night. But, with the bathroom door shut, this didn't impact on the silence. If you're expecting a good mobile phone signal and a strong wifi connection, Siminsbath Hotel isn't for you. If you want a beautiful base, located in stunning countryside, with friendly staff, a relaxed atmosphere and nice food, Simonsbath Hotel is a good choice.
