Hotels near Tarr Steps

"Firstly, the food was excellent. Breakfast was lovely and the supper we had on one night was superb. However, check in was rather odd - the hotel was closed (at 5pm) so we rang the number on the door. We were greeted with….’We’re not open to the public but I’ll check you in’ - not quite a welcoming experience! We were shown to the room and then there was a comment of ‘there’s sometimes a problem with the hot water up here…but you should be ok’ - what a bizarre thing to say to new guests! The room was dusty and smelled musty. The carpet was badly stained. The canopy over the 4 posted bed was filthy and you can see clumps of dust held in it! The wardrobe was held shut by a chair in front of it and the bathroom door handle didn’t work well. The bed was comfortable though and bedding clean. The hotel spent more time with a closed sign on the door than open. This hotel is more like a B&B. The bar was open for short periods sometimes but the communal areas weren’t welcoming and there was no atmosphere at all. Everything needs an uplift. Overall the stay was functional as this is the only place to stay in Dulverton but it really needs some maintenance and atmosphere. It felt real shame as the building and business has so much potential."

"Lovely room in a beautiful location. Friendly and helpful staff. Delicious food."

"We had a three night stay at the White Horse Inn and from the moment we arrived to the time we checked we had a great time. The staff were so friendly and helpful and the fact that some had been working there for over 25 years says something. The menu had plenty of choices catering for everyone and the breakfast had everything you could possibly want. We stayed with our Golden Retriever and he was made as welcome as us although we were restricted to the bar for eating which was not a problem for us at all. We would recommend the White Horse Inn to anyone. "

"Nice welcome ,nice room(couple of cobwebs,but they appear from nowhere),nicebathroom,comfortable bed. This is a country pub not a holiday inn so ecpect uneven floors and wooden windows etc. Every effort was made to make us comfortable. The only down side of the weekend was a customers pair of dogs although friendly a little unwelcome sniffing around our legs and under the dinner table and perhaps the languish of one or two of the shall we say more boisterous locals was a little ripe, but weve all been there "

"Great hotel and brilliant staff."

"Lovely hotel in a small prretty village. Good food in rhe pub, very dog friendly and very relaxed friendly staff. On arrival our allotted room only had a shower. I was really hoping for a bath, so the owner very kindly upgraded us to a room with a bath. Would definitely stay again. Plenty of walks from the door. "
