For over 300 years, The Royal Oak Inn has been renowned for comfortable rooms and delicious food on Exmoor. Located in the beautiful village of Withypool, in the heart of Exmoor, it is the ideal base, from which to ride, hunt, shoot, fish or simply to walk and take in the breath-taking moors. The sparkling rivers & fertile valleys all add to the character of Exmoor - a character which changes from season to season and even day to day. Always different but always magnificent. For bookings over 12 people pre orders would be preferable and a 10% service charge will be added.

The Royal Oak Inn at Withypool is steeped in history. For centuries, people have been coming here to stay and to enjoy the delights of our 18th-century Inn here on Exmoor. We were very fortunate to have the 34th U.S. President - Dwight D. Eisenhower stay at The Royal Oak. He enjoyed riding on Exmoor and stayed in our suite at the top with views out over the beautiful countryside.

There are four different room types to choose from, the standard double with private facilities, deluxe doubles, superior double & superking/twin, the luxury king suite and luxury superking/twin rooms.

We were unexpectedly able to go to The Royal Oak without a reservation. Atmospheric pub/inn with an extensive menu and good beers. It is also special that they have a vegan menu for those who are interested. Excellent quality and price. Friendly staff. You immediately feel welcome. The pub is neatly furnished in accordance with Covid-19 requirements and there is a disinfection gel on every table. So good and worth repeating. Immediately booked again for tomorrow

A lovely spacious and well-appointed room with a bath was just what the doctor ordered after a lot of walking on the moor. Followed by a very good dinner and couple of pints in the homely bar, with great service and a delicious breakfast set us up for our drive home, getting home just ahead of Storm Eunice. We'll be back! Thank you Tracey & the team for your excellent service.
