We loved our quick stay at Steps Farmhouse. Our room was so lovely and clean and comfortable and the hosts have thought of everything you could possibly want for a comfortable stay. Breakfast was delicious and the dining room environment was so warm and welcoming. Couldn’t have loved it more.

Only just found your review.As we had corresponded so many time I was surprised to see it.As discussed in our messages you arrived at 2.15 my Camara showed you leaving just eight minutes later.I arrived back just minutes after that and still early for the pre agreed 4 o'clock .I had no missed call from you, I apologized that I had popped out to get supplies and explained we can't be there 24/7 but are always there an hour before check in.

Perfect stay at Steps Farmhouse
This B&B was just perfect. A lovely welcome and beautiful spotlessly clean bedroom with lots of character and lots of little extras. We had the best breakfast we have had in a long time and the area was great for walking and the coast.

Exceptional value for money - a real find!
What a great find! I travel for work around the SW and was delighted to find this excellent B&B. It has everything I look for - a home from home feel, on-site secure parking, spotlessly clean and with great in- room facilities (fridge, tea / coffee making), bathroom essentials and a comfy bed. Sharon is just the best host - she really cares for her guests and wants them to be comfortable. Lovely to find someone who loves what they do and wants to share her home. Great coffee at breakfast and a wide selection - including locally sourced cooked breakfast ingredients. I will return for a holiday next time!

Excellence in Exmoor
What an amazing B&B, so glad I chose to stay here during my trip to Exmoor, Close to all the attractions yet felt like a million miles away from anywhere. The owners are amazing, extremely friendly and couldn't do enough to help, the rooms were spacious, clean and had everything you would need for your stay. Fresh cooked breakfast was tasty, plentiful and of a good variety setting you up nicely for the day. They have a lovely garden brimming full of flowers, plants and fruit which was nice to sit and relax in, there is an honesty bar were you can help yourself and pay at the end of the trip which I thought was a great idea. Overal you would be hard pushed to find a place like this for the price and location, would definitely stay again if I were in the area.

This is absolutely where you want to stay.
Paul and Sharon were amazing, we could not have felt more welcome and they couldn't do enough for us. The room was immaculate, comfortable and had an incredible view. Breakfast was delicious and definitely set you up for the day. They were always happy to help, answer any questions and are full of helpful info about the area. The location is a great launchpad to explore the area (pretty much 10-20 minutes from everywhere) and north Devon is within easy reach, absolutely ideal. I cannot recommend staying here highly enough. You'll be infinitely glad you did from the moment you arrive you. We will definitely be back.

Really nice cozy and friendly, lovely little allotment garden full of fresh fruit and veg for the kitchen, well cared for and manicured. The rooms are well equipt, clean and comfortable. Plenty of space outside, perfect for social distancing requirements. And there was plenty to choose from for breakfast, beautifully and carefully prepaired, with fresh fruit from the garden. Sharon & Paul were also lovely and very accomodating. Would reccomend, and would stay again when visiting.

Great place - just off the A39 to Minehead and very quiet. Large room, very efficient heating. Very comfortable bed and loads of extras - toiletries, room heater, fridge, real milk etc. More than you would normally receive in a B&B. Internet & TV good reception. Plenty of wardrobe space, pleasant view on to a gravelled & secluded courtyard. Breakfast across the courtyard in large dining room. A wide variety of items for breakfast. Full English breakfast cooked to order or whatever you wished. For me not swimming in fats & oils but 'dry'. Good proportions. A pleasant room. All in all a delightful but far too short a stay! Hosts very pleasant & helpful. Knew who you were & admin spot on. For the price an absolute give away. Thoroughly recommended.

Would visit again!
The owners were so helpfully from the instant we arrived which made us feel very welcome. We were advised that there had been an electrical issue before we arrived and when we found that our WiFi connection was not working this was sort within 5 minutes similarly our request for wine glasses for the room was sorted straight away and when the owners became aware that, because of the reason we were there (an archery competition at Dunster Castle) we were pushed for time to have breakfast because of the start time of the event we were instantly offered an earlier slot! This made a huge difference to stay as we were setup with an excellent breakfast for the day. As we had the dog with us it was lovely to find that there was a beautiful secluded garden where we could relax outside of the room. As frequent travellers, due archery, we found Steps to be spot on for our needs!

Nice room over a pub
It was a nice stay. The room was above a pub/restaurant area so it was loud until about 11:30 which was fine with me since I’m up late usually but be aware of that. The WiFi didn’t work in the room which was frustrating because I had to do some work so I had to go in the pub/restaurant area. Overall the experience was good though and the room was nice.
