The Rest and Be Thankful Inn

Superb little gem of a place !  Accom excellent, dinner and breakfast top notch.  Thank you !

It's a fantastic place to stay and eat.The hospitality is great and nothing is too much. Well done to all who work there.Evening meal and breakfast were excellent quality and quantity.

We are returning guests and love staying here. Really friendly, nothing is too much trouble, the room is great and we loved every meal, what's not to like!

Very cosy accommodation high on Exmoor. Comfortable, friendly and good value. Perfect overnight stop during our walk along the Coleridge Way.

Friendliness of staff second to none, nothing was too much trouble and we did have a couple of special requests. Most generous breakfast I've ever come across, and the quality of the food was excellent, both breakfast and dinner. Loved staying here and wouldn't hesitate to stay again if we are back in the area.

Wonderful experience.  Very friendly and helpful owners and staff. Food was excellent both dinner and breakfast. Room was compact but clean and comfortable. Well stocked with all requirements.  Located in a small village with beautiful surroundings.

A wonderful family owned Inn which is situated in a beautiful location. My family and I were welcomed by the owners and were made to feel very welcome by them and all their friendly, chatty staff. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they were very accommodating. The Rest and Be Thankful has a lot of history and character and there are lots of photos of the Inn and surrounding area from many years ago. The Inn was kept very clean as was our room and we had a comfortable stay. The food was excellent, always hot and cooked well and was delicious. The bar has a good selection of local ales and cider on draft as well as other tipples. Will definitely book and stay here again in the future. Thank you to Eric, Caz and all the staff for providing us with a comfortable and enjoyable stay!

A great Inn with lots of character

We were very impressed with the Covid 19 preparations that the Inn had put in place, including taking our temperature on arrival. We were warmly greeted and our room was spotlessly clean. The evening meal was excellent, as was the breakfast. A very enjoyable stay, would return. The only observation is that the furniture looks a little tired and would benefit from new dining tables, and some of the bedroom furniture. Carpet was also clean but outdated. However we enjoyed our stay.

Rest & Be Thankful

One must be aware from the outset that you are staying in a country pub and not an hotel. With that in mind you can appreciate that the amenities on offer are limited but adequate. The pub was always spotlessly clean, the staff were always helpful and the accommodation was very good. The room that I occupied was a bit noisy during the daytime because it overlooked the main crossroads but after about 8pm everything quietened down. The room was quite large with a large wardrobe and plenty of shelves for clothes. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom had all that one could ask for except that it had only a shower and not a bath. Not a problem for me but for others it might be. The dining room offered a comprehensive menu of high quality cooking and twice a week, Wednesday evenings and Sunday lunchtimes, there was a carvery on offer. The bar offered an extensive choice of quality beers. I would have liked however to see a wider choice of non alcoholic beers. With so many choices of non alcoholic beers in the bitter range ie, Adnams Ghost Ship now available it would have been nice to have had that choice instead of the usual lager substitutes.My stay at the Rest & Be Thankful was a very pleasant experience and I would recommend the venue to anyone who wants to explore Exmoor from this quite central location at Wheddon Cross. Thank you to the landlord Eric and his staff for a very pleasant stay.

Great stay,definitely like to book here again.Big comfortable clean room,new carpets,quality bed.All little extra touches,complimentary toiletries,tea,coffee etc,lovely spacious room.Great breakfast,kids given large breakfast,2 big pots of tea,all fruit juices(not stingey as so many others),plenty of everything,want for nothing,honestly...Super service,this place run how they should all be! .Great value.Thanks very much,appreciated the effort (rarity, these days).

Could not fault..

Fantastic location, pleasant and very helpful staff. Warm and welcoming environment and food plentiful and varied. We stayed as a group of 6, the staff were very accommodating.The rooms were comfortable and clean. Our room had an excellent view of Exmoor and Dunkery Beacon - how fab! Unfortunately the room and bathroom was very hot and we couln't turn the radiators down or off. However it didn't affect our overall experience. Would certainly use again.

A place I have stayed at before. Pleasant room with good facilities. Bed very comfortable, quiet room. Small window looking across to the hills & air conditioning equipment - not the most exciting! Can a little noisy when operating but didn't bother me. Good choice on evening menu & good portions. Tasty, pleasantly served by an efficient staff. Breakfast traditional with locally produced produce. All in all a very pleasant stop. Definitely value for money.

An Oasis in the Hills

Pleasant hotel with ample parking space.  All packed into a small room but very comfortable.  Pleasantly laid out & spotlessly clean.  Single bed but comfortable.  Only complaint is noise of generators etc on roof outside as room above dining/kitchen area, if window open.  All quiet after about 23:00 and before 07:00 so a good night's rest achieved!As a general point it seems that many rooms for solo travellers are often over the 'noisiest' part of building.  We pay good money like every other traveller & need to be treated the same with comfort & noise re - rooms.Meals were good, attractively presented & good sized portions.  Breakfast the same with a good choice for the traveller.

Good stopping point

Very nice pub/hotel set in the countryside about 10 miles outside Minehead. Very welcoming owners and nice double bedroom (no.3). with good en suite shower and toilet. Breakfast was excellent and freshly cooked to order. Friendly staff and good restaurant with nice food, especially the salmon.Bacon and Chicken salad was salty and a bit dry but the rest was good. Would definitely recommend and would stay there again.
