The Blue Ball Inn is a gem!

Located in the heart of some of the most spectacular hiking and walking trails on Exmoor, it was the perfect spot for our weekend getaway. The dog-friendly policy was a major plus for us, and our furry friend enjoyed the stay just as much as we did. The cleanliness of the rooms and the overall service were outstanding. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing break in the countryside.
