- "Fabulous stay at the Full Moon Inn. Staff were all so warm and helpful, the place is spotless clean, every bit of the Inn and the rooms,the rooms are so comfortable because not only they are spacious but also they have been refurbished with common sense. We've all asked ourselves why couldn't they put a hook here? How lovely it'd be to have a nice welcome cookie ? It'd be nice to have Netflix? It'd be good to have all the toiletries...the Full Moon have thought about everything you have ever thought in other hotels and have made sure you have it in your room. The food at the pub is fantastic and the breakfast, you couldn't fault it.

The cushioned window seats were my favourite feature, sitting there with a cup of tea was just divine.

- "I cannot speak highly enough of this wonderful place to stay in the heart of Exmoor. Shabby chic, charming, and expertly run. Andrew had boundless energy and is a font of knowledge and good local tips. The Whiskies are amazing with some rare and vintage gems. A 1970s Bruichladdich is one of the jewels in Andrews liquid crown. My room had a view up the Barle valley which was amazing to lie back at night and stare along. And the walk along there to Exford and Withypool is glorious. I wish I'd stayed longer. Or just got a job there and remained. Andrew is a natural and his team do him proud."
