    Nothing not to like but the Wi-fi is very sketchy and in an area where mobile signal is really poor.

    The location is perfect for hiking to Dunkery Beacon and around the Moors. And it’s situated in a very pretty village.

    Great choice of continental and full English breakfast Catered for different dietary needs eg gluten free breads Staff all very friendly and warm welcome when we arrived for check in We had dinner at the hotel twice- excellent value for money & wide selection on menu Lovely to be able to sit on the benches outside watching the Exford world go by- looking over the village green with occasional car, bike, tractor or horse going by! Perfect setting! Good central base for exploring the Exmoor area

    Lovely setting in the middle of the village. The staff were really excellent and very helpful. Breakfasts were very good and catered for every taste. It was very busy with a wedding on but the atmosphere was excellent. The beer in the pub was excellent and a proper country pub.

    Some of the interior is looking a bit ‘dated’, but whilst we were there, workmen are replacing a flat roof and looked to be refurbishing a room downstairs, so investment is going into the well run hotel. The water pressure for the shower, was poor, and the supplied toiletries ‘basic’. I would have happily paid a little more for better quality, but this is only a minor, in what was a very nice stay.

    The Crown is in a fabulous location, both within the village, and to tour Exmoor. The Bar staff and those serving breakfast were very friendly. We had a good evening dinner, and breakfast, not bad at all, but we prefer a ‘self service’ for Cereals, toast and Juices. The cooked breakfast was nice. The ‘real ale’ served in the bar, did have a problem, as the same ‘Exmoor Ale’, available from another pub in the village, on this occasion, was much better. So a ‘bad batch’ from their supplier, I think. Probably should have been taken off the bar, as the other ‘Exmoor beer’, was very good, and tasted the same as other local suppliers.

    Nothing to not like … staff were amazing and very friendly, all super clean but some areas of the hotel were a little ‘tired’

    Absolutely amazing spot for hiking, friendly staff, great bar in the evening with friendly locals and a wonderful breakfast to set you up for the day - felt very welcome as a solo traveller! Comfy bed, and very clean.

    I would really like to give a higher score the family deserve it but not able due to a couple of issues! These are hard times I know and the upkeep for a property of this size and structure must be daunting, however our gripes should be relatively easy fixes. The room (2) smelt musty due to a sizeable damp patch on the outside wall, this in turn is making the bathroom suffer accordingly the shower curtain in particular. I did speak with what I assumed was the maintenance man and pointed out the blocked downpipe and poor guttering which is responsible for the majority of these issues??

    A great location with very friendly accommodating staff/family, food was excellent with plenty of choice and amount. Parking is very easy and access to all of Exmoor from The Crown is very simple.
