Exmoor House sits on Dunster's oldest street within Exmoor National Park, a short walk from Dunster Castle and the West Somerset Steam Railway. The surrounding countryside offers hiking and cycling trails, and the coast is 3 miles away. Nearby attractions include Lynton and Lynmouth, accessible by open-top bus, and vehicle safaris across the moors.
Dining
Breakfast at Exmoor House is award-winning and uses locally sourced ingredients, with the Full Exmoor breakfast featuring Exmoor Trout and local sausages. A continental option includes homemade jam, honey, and marmalade, and guests pre-order their preferred breakfast time to reduce food waste. Freshly cooked options like mushroom omelette and James's secret-recipe fried bread are available.

The Grade-II listed building dates from the 17th century and retains historic architectural features. Hosts James and Jane provide local dining recommendations and can assist with dinner reservations via pre-stay emails.
