The Smithy is unique and fascinating, and steeped in local history. Up until 1975, it
was a working Smithy and the workplace of Mr Bill Prideaux, who claimed to be the oldest working blacksmith at the age
of 89! It was later turned into a museum which illustrated the craft of the blacksmith with the original tools and
forge. It then fell into a state of disrepair until it was refurbished in 2000. Many of the original features have been
kept and restored to make a truly unique holiday experience. The half loft which was used to store the iron has been
transformed into open plan sleeping areas, and incorporates a minstrel's gallery. The forge and anvil from the Smithy
are now housed in the Lyn and Exmoor museum, which is just down the road from The Smithy.
Double bedroom on the Minstrel's Gallery, two single bedrooms, bathroom, open plan living room, dining room and kitchen.
