We travelled some distance to meet friends for lunch at the Devonshire Arms. It was certainly worth it. Friendly owner and staff, log fire, well appointed and excellent choice and quality of food. Not cheap but good value for money if you enjoy fresh locally sourced food cooked to perfection. Will certainly return. The pork and chorizo stew and plum and almond flan first class.

My wife and I stayed here en-route from London to Devon last week. The room we had has been referred to by other reviewers on TA as "small". For one night, it is fine, although at 6 foot, 2 inches, I could not walk upright in certain parts of the room!
The bathroom was great - a massive room with a roll top bath situated in the middle of the room. The only downside (for the people downstairs) was the fact that the old, wooden floors were so creaky!
We had dinner on the Saturday and the food was innovative and well cooked. I would say slightly pricey - I am from London and it makes me laugh on my travels round the country when people say London restaurant prices are sky high. I have certainly seen London prices in small villages outside of London and wonder if these are warranted.
Overall, worth a night's stay.

We stayed here for a couple of nights in July. It is in a lovely setting overlooking the green, and had a lovely garden area. The owner and staff were very nice and helpful. The rooms were clean. I would imagine it was furnished by a man as there were no little extras like cotton wool, bathrobes, biscuits. Also the toiletries were not replenished. There was also no drawer space for my clothes. The furniture was of high qualilty, but not all together practical. Food was lovely. It was alwalys full in the restaurant, even week days, so booking was essential. Breakfast was also very good. I was suprised that the pub was not open in the afternoon. I would have liked to sit out in the garden having an afternoon drink. Also if you wanted to check in between 3 and 6 you have to phone to get someone to come out to check you in. I would stay again.

Stayed at The Devonshire Arms a couple of years ago, so when we found ourselves in the area again we decided on a second visit. Having found the front rooms a bit noisy the last time (due to the crossroads) we were offered the garden annexe but when we arrived we'd been "upgraded" - to the front .......... This was soon fixed with a front location away from the crossroads and all was well!

Food is great - both evening and breakfast and we were just sorry not to have more time to relax and enjoy the gardens. The staff are lovely and we would definitely return.
