The welcome and service we received from all the staff was excellent. The British village pub atmosphere in the bar was great and the beer was first class. The food was also really good with large portions giving excellent value for money. Thank you.

Great stay!

The room was very cosy and clean. The bed was comfy and we both slept really well (in part because it was so quiet too). Massive TV with all streaming services available, tea and coffee making facilities and a powerful electric shower. The room could do with a little bit of touching up and maintenance but this was greatly outweighed by everything mentioned above. We had a few drinks in the pub both nights we were there and the staff were friendly and helpful. Spacious car park available too. Overall, really nice stay and would stay again!

Bathroom could use a little TLC but fit for purpose. Amazing breakfast that more than made up for any minor cosmetic items. The land-people, actually all of the staff were so welcoming. Definitely worth a visit or night over.

We had a lovely stay at the Thorverton Arms, the hosts were friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them. The breakfast was great and they did amazing pub food in the evenings too. The homemade scampi was the best we’ve ever had anywhere!

Very warm welcome from our hostess. Shown to our room which was good value for money as the breakfast was excellent. Room slightly small but very clean. The bathroom although clean was very tired. Light over sink broken. Had a nice meal in the evening and the bar/restaurant team very helpful and friendly and efficient service.

Not as expected

Sat nav took a round the lanes approach which slow and frustrating. Room ok. Bed very comfortable. Shower and toilet noise a challenge. Thought it would just power up but continuous and must have been troubling for other guests early in morning.
