Reviews of Exmoor House at Wheddon Cross

Exmoor House: awards, reviews & recommendations

Stop press: after our 2009 Quality in Tourism/Visit Britain inspection, we were given a Silver Award, which means that we achieved high scores across all the categories (e.g. hospitality, food, comfort, cleanliness...)

Exmoor House is rated 4* Guest Accommodation by VisitBritain. We also have the Walkers Welcome and Cyclists Welcome awards, which means - as you might expect - that we provide very good facilities and services for cyclists and walkers. These include, for example, a drying room, information about local public transport, maps and books you can borrow, and somewhere to store your bike.

At Exmoor House we've always made the effort to be as environmentally friendly as possible, and have achieved Silver in the Green Tourism Business Scheme (GTBS) - see our environmental statement. Not only that, but we won a Green Tourism Best Performer 2008 award - which means that we're one of the top 12 businesses (out of 425) assessed in England that year.

"This Edwardian house has been lovingly converted into a very comfortable hotel"
- The Guardian, July 2007 (The Guardian named us best hotel on Exmoor in its 'Great Outdoors' supplement about the National Parks).*

* OK, we're Guest Accommodation rather than officially a hotel: main differences are that we don't provide room service or 24 hour reception...


"...Frank produces home made meals that would grace - or put to shame - some of the country's best known restaurants. Freshly cooked, innovative meals, different every day, he has a passion for cooking that I've rarely seen"
- from chinese-luck-dragon's review on uktv.co.uk/food (Exmoor House was nominated for the UKTV Food Local Hero awards in 2007 and 2008).


"...this swish little place punches way above its weight; for this kind of cash you wouldn't normally expect so much individuality"
- Lonely Planet Devon, Cornwall & Southwest England, 2008

"...a beautifully characterful Edwardian property... high quality en-suite rooms decorated in a contemporary yet comfortable style... the food is of an exceptional quality"
- Country Living Magazine Guide to Rural England The West Country, 2008


Melissa Shales (travel writer, guidebook author and Chairman of the British Guild of Travel Writers) recommends Exmoor House for "walks, wellies, fireside chats and fab food – cosy home comforts in a glorious setting" - 101 Holidays, October 2009
