Dating back over 350 years, Simonsbath House is the centre of what locals refer to as Exmoor proper and is the perfect place from which to explore the magic of the beautiful area, with many walks leaving directly from the doorstep.

Simonsbath has seen much excitement over the years, since the Royal Forest was brought from the commonwealth by James Boevey who built his hunting lodge between 1652-4. It remained the only house on the forest until is was brought by John Knight an Industrialist from Shropshire who built the School and Church and developed the village of Simonsbath.

In its time Simonsbath House has been an Inn where Smugglers were rumoured to have hidden their bounty in it, the Earl of Fortescue used it as his weekend house and evacuees stayed there in the war.

Simonsbath House has only been a Hotel since the late 1960's and has managed to retain its friendly home-like atmosphere. Owners Andrew and Louise Flagg have made Simonsbath House a cosy, comfortable and a relaxing Hotel for their guests to stay in, whether that's for one night or a week.

The area is a walkers paradise and Andrew, Louise and their friendly staff are on hand to ensure that you make the most out your visit.

Join experienced leaders, on an exploration of the contrasting scenery of Exmoor National Park with its deep wooded coombe, heather moorland and rugged coastline. The full programme includes options to explore the many well known walks such as the Two Moors Way, Coleridge Way, South West Coast Path and the Macmillan Way.
