The beautiful Exmoor Forest Inn is owned by three brothers Edward, Freddie and Alexander Greenall. Edward enjoys hunting with the infamous South Herefordshire Hunt, the Ledbury Hunt, and the appalling Devon and Somerset Stag Hounds, often adorning his pro-hunt Instagram posts with the hashtag ‘#fighttheban’. The Inn provides a section on its website under Activities entitled ‘Equestrian Sports’ where the Greenalls direct their customers to three bloodsport groups that can be found in the local area. The brothers also want their share of the lucrative shooting market, writing that the Inn can ‘accommodate whole teams of guns in considerable comfort, with private dining and exclusive use options available”. It also says that “from 2023 [sic], we will also have an extremely comfortable shooting lodge (sleeping up to 18 guests) available in a very private location on the estate”.
