Overall Ratings & Reviews The West Country Inn

Fantastic old world pub with excellent food and staff

Nice country hotel

Laura is a wonderful host. Helpful in every way

USed as an overnight stay - comfortable and very friendly

Lovely clean hotel. Good service. Bit limited on drinks in the bar, but ok. Good breakfast. Would stay again.

The team was incredibly welcoming, and looked after me well. I had a lovely evening meal, and they were kind enough to do an early breakfast for me, as I was doing a long-distance walk and needed to make the most of daylight hours. The room was quite compact, and it is clearly an older building, but was comfy enough for me. The bathroom was compact, but certainly not cramped.

Good food clean & comfortable hotel, nice owner. Enjoyed our stay.

Nice hotel, very convenient position and easy parking.

The most unhygienic hotel I’ve ever stayed in. Arrived around lunchtime and ordered some food in the pub. Upon sitting down we noticed food scraps all over the floor, the table was filthy and the wall behind the booth was covered in mould. We couldn’t lean back as we would have got mould in our hair/on our clothes. The staff were friendly and were able to get us into our room well ahead of check-in time but unfortunately the cleanliness of the hotel completely overshadowed the whole experience. The rooms were a decent size but everything was so old - the sheets, towels and pillows looked about 10 years old. I actually couldn’t bring myself to sleep under the sheets and slept with my coat over me. There was mould in the shower and spiders. The room got quite cold at night so I left the plug-in heater running for an hour or so before falling asleep. I woke up to a spark from the heater and realised it had died. It was a great location for what we were doing in Devon but would never stay there again. I heard of friends of friends who actually couldn’t do another night at the hotel and went back to London early.

Had a lovely short stay, food was delicious and the hostess was fantastic. Will be returning next time we travel that way.

Hotel staff very friendly and would help you with anything. Rooms very comfort and you have everything you need. Food excellent and good portions. Did not have to wait long for food

arrived early to find placed locked up so left , came back 15 min before alloted time and was greeted by you are not expected until 5pm but ill let you in . later was told we were not booked for breakfast but can if wanted , then said you would be better going to Mc Donalds , return Sunday for evening meal the chef( only person on site ) says no meals tonight normal Sunday roast but they are all gone and can't be bothered to cook anything . the room was never serviced and as result nothing on the tea tray for morning cup . we left

Great landlord who couldn't do enough to make you welcome and ensure you enjoy your stay. Great location for visiting the sites in North Devon. Could do with a refresh of the hotel.

Great food building a bit tired but fantastic host The owner worked her socks off to make us welcome great food

Staying over between jobs in Bideford and Plymouth; really lovely, comfortable and clean room - lovely old building, and a beautiful bedroom. Full English breakfast cooked perfectly, orange juice, fresh coffee ('proper' coffee, not the quick granular stuff) and plenty of cereal to choose from. Will be booking here again both for work AND if and when I come to Devon for a break. Really lovely staff.

Friendly atmosphere, good food , room a bit tired

Note - there was a mix up with the accommodation- however the proprietor made other arrangements which were absolutely fabulous .

Old style hotel in lovely location and lots of history

Good location to explore area

The hotel was very short-staffed and it showed. The manager/owner was very friendly but run off his feet as he had to do everything. The room was unclean, no hot water in the room and as it was a weekend no plumber was available, and poor choice of cereals at breakfast.
