    charming stay with easy access to iconic landmarks

    My stay was perfect thanks to the lovely four-poster bed in a blissfully quiet room, and I was just a short stroll away from Dunster Village and Bat's Castle, making my weekend city explorations easy and enjoyable.

    Unique stay with amazing decor!

    What a gem! We stayed in a gorgeous Deluxe Double Room for 2 nights. The place is super cozy with stunning decor, and the food is all local or homemade. We loved the in-room breakfast – such a treat to start the day! One hiccup was the bathroom could've used a bit more space, but it didn’t ruin our time at all.

    Great House B&B offered a charming experience. The hosts, Sheila and Bruce, provided fantastic hospitality and valuable local tips for exploring Exmoor. The Deluxe Double Room featured beautiful decorations that celebrated the property's history. The breakfast was truly outstanding. I had some of the best local ingredients and the coffee was superb. The peaceful atmosphere made for truly restful nights, especially in that comfy four-poster bed. parking could be a challenge. During busy times, finding a spot was tricky, especially if returning late. This could add a bit of stress, but the overall charm of the place outweighed this inconvenience.

    Perfect getaway in a charming place!

    I spent 2 nights here and it was lovely. The cozy king room was super dark and quiet, perfect for sleep. The hot shower was a treat after long days out, and breakfast made to order was delicious—seriously, the sausage was top-notch! Only wished the Wi-Fi was a bit faster, but I managed.
