    I thoroughly enjoyed the cooked breakfast on the two mornings i was there. I liked having a small kitchen that I could use for my evening meal. I liked the village and the shop that had everything I wanted. I liked the surrounding countryside. But most of all I liked the host who helped make my stay enjoyable and a little bit different from the average.

Nice Room with two double beds and a TV, had everything we needed and the host, Mop, was outstanding - Mop went above and beyond the call of duty. We will defiantly be going back! Thank you Mop!

    A lovely room - more like a small apartment - in a perfect location in a quiet Exmoor village. We had a warm and friendly welcome from Mop, a very comfy bed, and a spotlessly clean room and bathroom, along with an excellent cooked breakfast!

    Nothing. Note that mobile signal in the area is very poor, so the Wifi was vital!

    Was going to give 9 out of 10, then realised I couldn't think of any reason not to give 10. Hostess on arrival was friendly and welcoming, giving clear information. (She had texted the previous day to check arrival time - useful when I was worrying every evening if I'd booked the right date for the right accommodation!) Room clean, comfortable and well-equipped - with kitchenette and shower room, so a mini-apartment. Good wifi, Sky tv worked well. Breakfast was the best of our seven-day walk across Devon and Somerset; beautifully cooked, generous portions. And we were given an unexpected packet of sandwiches for our onward walk. Thoroughly recommended.

    I hate to sleep in a room with a clock tick tick and bloody tick I can't sleep but that's just me. I have a surjection to help visitors but also increase revenue. Because the local shop shuts at 5pm and there is nothing else for miles have an honesty box with a snack selection in it, in the kitchen somewhere. Cans of drinks crisps etc Kendal mint cakes for the walkers.

    Mop (the owners name) is great. Very welcoming nothing is too much trouble. You get your own little area kitchen bathroom bedroom. The location is beautiful and very quiet.

    Nothing to dis-like. The bedroom is small (though it's got to be more than the 64 sq.ft quoted on the Booking.com website) but it's comfortable and, for the price we have no complaints.

    Short but pleasant stay in this comfortable room. Extremely well provided for - everything you could want and more, which is unusual for a place like this. Mop was a great host, very helpful and responsive to requests. And the cooked breakfast was ... legendary! The location is perfect, on the edge of the village with a nice pub a short stroll away and walks along the River Barle within 100yds of the front door

    Nothing at all. It was all great. If I had to put something I would say because of its size it is probably not suitable for a much longer break (we stayed for 2 nights which was perfect) or for people that bring loads of stuff with them and want a ton of floor space.

    Everything was great. The property was clean, beautifully decorated and very cosy. There were kitchen facilities to cook our own meals which meant we didn’t have to eat out every night, and the shower was powerful and hot. Netflix and Sky both also came in handy during a particularly rainy day! Cooked breakfast was outstanding, one of the best veg brekkies we have had in a BnB. Aside from that there was cereal, fruit and yoghurt provided and some nice extra touches like water and juice. The host was welcoming and friendly. Also property is in a good location for exploring the National park. Would highly recommend for a couple or single person (oh, and its dog friendly too!)

    Nothing. We removed the air freshener, but some people probably like it!

    Mop was a fantastic host, got us in and left us to it. We brought two parrots, a first for Mole End, but they also loved it, and Mop was so excited to have them. We all slept soundly, and the whole place was cleaner than a brand new Premier Inn or 5 star hotels in London.

    The bed was a bit hard for us and could do with a foam topper - that would make it a lot more comfy.

    Breakfast was excellent and very generous and the location was great.. nice that it had a little kitchenette which was very handy for feeding our little dog and the patio door in the room was convenient for letting him out the back.
