A lovely place to stay all round, spotlessly clean, with great hosts. Great breakfast served in an impressive room. Our room (no.1) was spacious and very comfortable with a great view of the front garden area and countryside beyond. Very peaceful.
Easily walkable into Exford village along a very quiet country road.

Wonderful 1 night stay.
Traditional English property set in beautiful surroundings. Service was friendly and the room had everything we needed (including some nice touches like fresh milk).
Breakfast is first class.

Elegant refinement with a homely feel
What an amazing find. Tucked away on the edge of the village, Edgcott house is the perfect weekend bed and breakfast get away. Penny and Simon, your hosts, welcome you into their exquisite home like old friends. The house is spotlessly clean, warm and inviting, everything you could want in such elegant comfort. The whole feel of the place is just so refined but homely. My wife and I had had a stressful day before we arrived because of car issues but once there we just relaxed into the peace and quiet. So much so that we stayed an extra night. Breakfast was a real treat and you know that cooking is a passion in the house by the bookcase full of cookery books in the hallway. No half measures here with copious use of local ingredients and home grown produce. Penny successfully reminded me how much I like rhubarb for breakfast!
We cannot recommend this accommodation highly enough and we were even able to take our dog.
We shall return again.

We always include a stopover at Edgcott House when holidaying in Cornwall because it is so good. Always made to feel welcome and it is the extra touches which make a difference. Homemade cake and fresh milk in our room on arrival. Quality bathroom toiletries. A good nenu for breakfast, including local produce and home cooked fruit is always delicious. This time it was greengages. Very comfortable beds.
Would definitely recommend.

Lovely visit
Lovely accommodation great service. Penny and Simon were friendly and offered a very professional service. Fabulous Full English breakfast traditional or Vegetarian offered all locally sourced and beautiful. e had a very comfortable well maintained room with lovely en suite bathroom. Comfortable bed and beautifully decoratedroom and hotel. To arrive to lovely cake in our room was a nice touch at the end of a long car journey. A true find on the internet with a beautiful setting and gardens in a well maintained historical hotel.
Could not recommend it highly enough would love to returm if back in West Country.

Excellent choice
This was an excellent choice for our two day stay in Exmoor. The property is not only situated in an easy to reach beautiful area, it’s a fabulous property throughout and is spotlessly clean. The breakfasts were truly magnificent and the homemade cake in the room was very much appreciated together with the bottled water, tea and coffee. I would definitely recommend Edgcott House to friends and family.

Perfect. Would definitely recommend
This property definitely warrants its high ranking. Would be hard to find fault.
Owners very welcoming, room and bathroom spotlessly clean and attention to detail superb. Plenty of space in bedroom and bathroom and comfy bed. Homemade cherry cake with our tea/coffee facilities on arrival. House has a lovely feel to it. Breakfast room delightful and extent of breakfast menu amazing. (Poached Somerset greengages !! with yoghurt unusual and glorious).
In addition to all of this the gardens are beautiful. Shame we were only staying one night. What a find!

Lovely Delicious country house in heart of Exmoor
Wonderful country house in the heart of Exmoor National Park. A charming character home with beautiful English garden in the quiet countryside near village of Exford. The generous breakfasts were gourmet, served in style in a lovely main room facing the garden. Tastefully furnished, scrupulously clean, welcoming hospitality, excellent advice for local hiking and touring. A wonderful stay!
