I requested a ground or first floor room as I have mobility problems. They emailed me and said they had a ground floor room, but it was an upgrade from what I had booked, therefore I needed to pay another £20.00 per night. I think this was absorbitant, as it didn’t look like the hotel was fully booked. Surely they accommodate disabled people all the time, or is it just a way of getting extra money. The site I booked through didn’t give me the option to say I was disabled, so I think these booking sites need to have a look at that part of the booking process.

The perfect bolthole

The perfect bolthole I wanted to a few days away before Christmas. Somewhere wild and windy. Exmoor delivers in bucket loads. And I wanted somewhere cosy and comfortable to stay, which did good food. The Exmoor White Horse Inn was the perfect place. Attractively situated beside the pretty River Exe, my walks could start from the front door. A cosy, comfortable room. Great food. And the warmest of welcomes - each time I returned from another windblown walk. The perfect weekend bolthole. Will definitely be back.

Located in a lovely setting but starting to look a bit tired throughout. We booked an upgraded room so two nights cost £355.00 Bed and breakfast which I don’t feel was good value. We have stayed in a much nicer hotel with that amount of budget. The room was OK but things like a shower over the bath with a rather tired curtain were not what we had expected. The staff were friendly and helpful and the breakfast was excellent. Unfortunately I felt the experience didn’t live up to our expectations and was in my opinion over priced.

I like to give a honest review and did like the place . We stayed in room 37 which requires redecorating as not been touched for a number of years and was NOT luxury as advertised for the price . Food was nice in the bar and breakfast was also very good . Spoke to another couple who were of the same opinion plus did not like the tv on in the bar area as they or us did not want Eastenders on . while eating !! Just needs some TLC .

A comfortable bed, that’s all.

We arrived just before 11pm and we’re shown directly to our room in another building across the car park. Unfortunately the lights on the outside of the building weren’t working, so we used the torches on our phones to find our way in. Upon initial inspection, the room looked very dated, but quite spacious, we had booked for 3 guests as per the description, (our young daughter was staying with us in the room), but they had called to say unfortunately it was a mistake on the Hotels.com website and the room can only hold two people, but our daughter was welcome to share our bed if we didn’t mind ! When getting into the bed, our young daughter pointed out the toenail clippings all over the floor next to the bed, so clearly the room had not been hoovered prior to our stay. In the morning, my wife and daughter had breakfast (very awkward service). Upon leaving, we were asked to pay a further £25 for my daughter, which I point blank refused as the room was booked for 3 people and was then too small for three people and our daughter had to sleep in with us. Disappointing and will not be returning.

We loved the location and the hotel was full of character. The only thing we did not enjoy was the meal on the first evening. We opted for a pub classic, the pie which was recommended on the menu, but unfortunately the food was lukewarm and bland. On reflection perhaps we should have eaten in the restaurant instead. This was the only complaint as everything else was amazing.

This was a last night away before driving home, booked so we could explore Exmoor. On arrival couldn’t locate reception staff but once found very helpful. Room was nice enough, wasn’t amazing quality but comfortable and clean. Bar staff were very nice, meal in the bar was not great sadly. First issue was undercooked Camembert, Steak was returned and clearly microwaved before being returned and awful, burgers were dry and tasteless, fish was better. Young person serving didn’t ask if everything was ok and management didn’t bother. Breakfast was better and couldn’t fault the service. Independent hotel and well attended, wish I could say we would return but won’t. Would have loved to give a better review.

From the moment we arrived we were treated like royalty. It was wonderful, after a long day travelling, to park up without difficulty and then be shown to our rooms in person by the owner/manager who was SO attentive and polite. The room was totally charming, in keeping with the age of the property, and the bathroom superb. We had a fabulous evening meal, well presented and great portion size, and a good night's sleep. The breakfast in the morning was second to none and made to order with ever need catered for. Our waiter made us feel that we were the only diners in the room. The service couldn't have been better. Well done White Horse Inn! I hope we can visit again. 10/10

Lovely old hotel. Plenty of character in a beautiful Somerset village. Lots to do within a short drive and plenty of walking. Room good, friendly staff, food great excellent service. If you want a sterile modern hotel then don’t bother with this hotel.
