Heddon’s Gate Hotel, Exmoor

Welcome to the best of Exmoor hospitality

Escape to Exmoor

On the steep slopes of the magnificently wooded Heddon Valley, hidden at the end of a quarter-mile private drive, set in more than 2½ acres of its own gardens and woodland, you will discover Heddon’s Gate.  This is a true country house hotel, secluded and tranquil, run by us, its owners, Anne and Eddie Eyles.

Here our guests appreciate the relaxed and friendly atmosphere, the comfortable and peaceful surroundings and the superb views of the valley.  Well-behaved dogs are welcomed here, and appreciate the hotel as much as their owners do.

Indulge in first-class Devon produce

Food and drink are an important part of the Heddon’s Gate day.  All produce is locally sourced wherever possible.  Start the day with a full English breakfast served at your table.  If staying half-board, return later for an afternoon tea with Devon clotted cream, and round it all off with pre-dinner drinks and an excellent four-course dinner, followed by coffee and digestifs.  There are good-quality teas and coffees, a full bar and a well-chosen, varied wine list.
