friendly owners good food lovely pub interior

all was good but the ground floor rooms in the coach house are rather dark

Lovely location on edge of Exmoor. Great host and food. Pub is a bit quirky and more of an eating pub.

Car could get blocked in if parked directly outside accommodation. Room was functional but layout a bit weird with TV to left wall of bed so if you wanted to watch programme you would get a crick in your neck. Also the corridor outside room quite noisy when other guests returned and walls not the thickest.

Lovely property in a pretty village. Gorgeous rooms with everything you need. Pub had lovely food and drinks.

the property was exceptional 

nothing

The pub and restaurant were very quaint, cozy, and welcoming

The walls are very thin between rooms so you can easily hear others. Rooms are also a bit outdated

The notice on the door says enter as guests and leave as friends and that is exactly what the land lord and land lady achieved ! Fantastic b and b , cozy homely and quirky we will defintlwy be coming back x

Visited some time ago, and have been looking forwards to visiting again. Wasn’t disappointed. Beautiful room with snuggly bedding. Friendly, knowledgeable, informative staff. Yummy breakfast. Award winning Scotch Egg! Character bar and restaurant with a cozy, romantic atmosphere. Look forwards to visiting again.

Friendly welcome. Excellent food. Festive without being overwhelming.

Reading lights in the bedroom were a bit low for our aging eyes.

My husband and i loved our two day stay in the Notley Arms . The room we stayed in was beutiful with a four poster bed with excellent quallity bedding. The food was exeptional and the sunday dinner one of the best weve tasted for a long time.Simon is a lovely man and very welcoming .I would definitely stay here again in this lovely part of the country.

Clean and tidy. Good parking.

Room was not as spacious or luxurious as expected. Restaurant meals were more expensive that we expected. Breakfast was well presented but quite small.

everything exceptional;

Road in

great location , fantastic food and service

The meals were gourmet. The atmosphere was pleasant.

Simon the owner of the Notley Arms went above and beyond with me and all the other guests to be friendly, hospitable and helpful. Breakfasts were very good and I also ate dinner (Bombay Aloo followed by the Cheese Board) Excellent selection of local cheeses and beers. I was assigned to the last single room available which was all Simon had left when I booked.

As mentioned I booked at short notice and was given a shoebox but it had everything I needed.

The staff were super helpful and friendly The food was absolutely amazing The room had some thoughtful ideas that bigger chains don't provide

The bathroom seemed a little tired but was clean Walls are thin and a little soundproofing wouldn't go amiss, however having said that once everyone had settled down for the evening the village was extremely peaceful

Lovely accommodation, lovely clean, large room, nice bathroom and good shower over bath. Quiet location, no discernible traffic noise. Very nice dining lounge and sofa areas, log fire, friendly bar, lovely hosts, classy and relaxed atmosphere. The food was absolutely delicious and the menu covered from a reasonable lower price up to some more expensive fare. The breakfasts were perfectly adequate and very tasty - some previous reviewers had complained about the small size of them, but honestly, how much did they expect to eat at that time in a morning - our breakfasts of juice, cereal, together with a full Exmoor cooked platter and freshly-prepared was very, very tasty - quite obviously of high quality locally-sourced products and very very filling. Generally, from the stay, we had no real complaints.

The wine list was very extensive, although, like most folks I know, the lower end of £22 for a bottle is still too much, but it was my birthday meal on the Sunday, so it wasn't really an issue, but did put us off wine for the second night. I suppose, across the board, in most hotels, pubs and restaurants, these wine prices are about the same these days, so we weren't surprised. the wine chosen was lovely though, it has to be said. The addition of a discretionary service charge [10% in this case] has crept in to many of our recent stays, post-covid, and with it already priced on the bill at the end, it becomes difficult to ask for it to be removed without making one feel a little mean spirited, knowing that it goes to help the serving-staff wages. We, almost always tip, but prefer to do this off our own initiative. However, none of this affected the view of our stay, as it was a very enjoyable stay in a very well-run, friendly and relaxing inn.

Truly lovely experience from our room to the evening meal and breakfast. Staff so very helpful nothing was too much trouble
