New Inn

Back again for a couple of nights while visiting family. This really is a perfect pub B&B. We arrived early and as usual our room key was left on a board for us, but we got a very warm welcome when we returned later after the bar had opened for the evening. The room was spotless and well furnished and we enjoyed 2 very good nights' sleep. Breakfast is of a very high standard and delicious - choice of full English, kippers or eggs Benedict/Florentine plus vegan option, all cooked using local ingredients. There is a good range of local beers and ciders and other drinks all presided over by Captain, the pub's loquacious parrot!. Our experience is completely at odds with the previous reviews. Mark and Theresa are welcoming, full of friendly advice and run an excellent country village pub with great food. We've never found anything to complain about, keep coming back and hopefully will do so again this year.

I didn’t want to leave a poor review as I am normally a positive upbeat person but after having read a recent review feel I should add my observations. On arrival the owner locked the bar door as we approached, he must have seen us? We then went through a side entrance and he appeared, not looking particularly friendly and he told us where our room was. As the bar had just shut we asked what time it would be back open and his response was ‘as per the email’. There was no greeting, no how are you or how was your journey? We ate in the bar that evening and found the Barman to be very pleasant and jovial. The food was at best average, the chips were really overcooked. The owner appeared in the bar when we were eating and sat with a local, again he had no interest in interacting with us. The room was basic but clean and the breakfast was reasonable, the lady serving us was friendlier but again no interaction from the owner. There was no goodbye or thank you, or hope to see you again. Sad and disappointed to be honest as we’ve known this pub for a long time. The outside looked tired and scruffy and the garden needs an overhaul.

Had a lovely family lunch yesterday, food was fabulous. Service was great, fast,attentive and very friendly! Great value for money! Would highly recommend this lovely old pub and if we have time this visit to Devon we will definitely go back.

Stayed here for the weekend highly recommend it lovely character building with thatched roof beamed ceilings open fire a real cosy welcoming country pub and restaurant The food is all home made and highly recommended also a very good selection of ales They catered for 16 of us to celebrate my mothers 90th birthday effortlessly The rooms are clean bright welcoming and very spacious with en suite staff are very friendly breakfast is included and recommended We will definitely be staying here again as we have family in the area.

Just returned from a wonderful stay at the New Inn, beautiful hotel/pub with bags of character situated in a lovely location. We had a lovely room and chose to eat in the pub in the evening and enjoyed a fantastic meal, it’s great to see local produce championed through the menu. Best eggs Benedict for breakfast I’ve had in years. The pub is a free house so again have local ales and ciders on tap. The owners and staff made us feel very welcome, as did ‘The Captain’ (resident parrot!). We will definitely return and this time with our dog as they’re also dog friendly. Well done New Inn!

How lovely is this place‘charming and little gem , overnight stay for me just breakfast and off;a nice pint with the locals and the hosts join us later.my room was of 5 stars status and a great night sleep followed ,breakfast was part full English for me as had to hit the road.I missed saying goodbye perhaps I won’t miss saying goodbye next time.

Another two night visit and just as good as ever. Large comfortable room, excellent food, our dog is welcome, and the staff are always friendly and helpful. We have family living nearby and use the New Inn whenever we visit.

Went here for the first time with my partner. Very friendly welcome upon arrival from landlord and resident parrot (Captain) The food was amazing and great value for money with fresh homemade specials available Definitely going to visit again Pictures of food Venison meatball tagliatelle (homemade pasta) from specials board Sausages of the day with mash peas and gravy Warm chocolate brownie and ice cream Sticky toffee pudding and ice cream And of course, can't forget Captain the resident parrot

We had a warm welcome and a comfortable room when we stayed last week, during our walking holiday. Special dietary needs were accommodated at short notice. Breakfast was superb. Thank you for a great stay.
