    We loved the ambience, decor and elegance that reflected the history and age of the house. Johns beautiful art, particularly added to the Exmoor experience hi lighting the traditions of the market and stunning landscape. The bedroom and bed was the comfiest I have slept in. Beautiful furnishings and views.

    Off-road parking is tricky at first, but became easier with practice ... Driving into or out of the dock You need fear neither timber nor rock; Just obey John’s commands When before you he stands, Watch his hands and apply a full lock.

    John St John … Though his name may suggest he’s a saint John will quickly inform you he ain't, But his breakfasts, divine In surroundings sublime, Will give you no cause for complaint.

    Really enjoyed our overnight stay at Kings. The room, in keeping with the rest of the building, was impeccably furnished in a sensitive combination of period and contemporary styles. A comfy bed and good en-suite facilities. Our host John welcomed us warmly, gave us a good introduction to the place and pulled back the big wooden gate to facilitate private parking. In the morning, breakfast (ordered in detail the previous evening) was delicious and sustaining. En route from Lancashire to Cornwall, we’ve made quite a few overnight stays in the Somerset/Devon area; for my money, this has been the best and most relaxing so far.

    I liked everything

    I had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful establishment and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations. The food was not only tasty but also plentiful, making each breakfast a pleasant experience. The cleanliness of the place was commendable. It was very clean and tidy which added to the overall comfort of my stay. The beds were incredibly comfortable ensuring a good night's sleep after a long day. A special mention must be made of John who was most helpful during our stay. He provided us with all the necessary information and went out of his way to ensure we had a pleasant stay. His assistance greatly enhanced our experience. In conclusion, I highly recommend this place for its excellent food, cleanliness, comfortable beds, and outstanding service. I would have no hesitation in staying again.

    Comfortable stay at Kings B&B, greeted by the host and given access to secure parking at the side of the property. Spacious bedroom and bathroom including a sofa, super king bed and excellent shower. The well kept Georgian house is in a quiet road in the centre of town. A good breakfast with choices served in the pleasant dining room. First rate overnight stay.

    Nothing. This place was perfection.

    Breakfast was perfection, very generous portion, beautifully cooked. Everywhere one looked in this house there was something lovely to see, chosen carefully to suit the surroundings. The host could not have been more helpful and charming, providing utensils and a wine glass for my takeaway supper.

    More heating or extra blankets in the bedroom but John adjusted his heating to suit us when we mentioned we were a tad cold.

    Breakfast was fantastic quality , cooked beautifully, tasted lovely, good portion size, host met our dietary requirements with no issues. Room was spotless, nicely decorated and spacious. Had everything we needed just a tad cold for us but the host kindly adjusted the timing of the heating to suit us without us asking. Safe secure parking space just a little tight to get in and out of. John the host was fantastic, very polite, pleasant and happy to help in any way, nothing was too much trouble for him. Location was great right in the centre of south molton and in easy reach of other things and days out. Two convenient stores that are open until late which was handy. Great view of the church from our room.

    There was nothing to dislike.

    Rooms were amazing, quiet, warm, massive amounts of space. The beds were unbelievably comfortable. The host was very accommodating and although we arrived late in the day he offered to cook if we wanted to but also recommended where we could go locally for good food. Parking is available but can be tricky depending on the size of the vehicle and if there are parked cars on the street. The King's has secure, private parking which is off street. We were driving a long wheel based Transit van, double cab) and the street had parked cars which made it difficult to park but the host was more than happy to make space on the street for our vehicle which has virtually no through traffic so we were more than happy to do park on the street.
