Great stay at the Masons Arms, Branscombe, Devon
Everything was to a high standard. Highly recommended
It was disappointing
The room was very noisey the fire alarm above the bed went off at 7/8 both mornings
The breakfast room was like a Zoo with so many big dogs the waitress couldn't get to our table
I was hoping for a cosy pub with rooms and a old English stay but I won't be recommending
It was too busy for what the staff could cope with
The staff in the bar were lovely.
We stayed at the Branscombe Arms in late October. The accommodation was gorgeous and the food delicious. Do book a dinner reservation, as there is no other option in the village itself. It has on-site parking and is in a great location, only a 10 minute walk from the beach and walking tracks. I would highly recommend it!
Absolutely beautiful room, lovely and warm especially after arriving cold from our motorcycle journey. Interior design was well thought, well stocked fridge with complimentary lager.sat on the roof terrace on Halloween listening to the owls in the woods , breakfast was great with a good choice, will definitely be back

Highly recommend!
Fantastic stay! Pub definitely had that cosy, old fashioned vibe with friendly attentive staff! Food was excellent! Overall a fab few nights away and will definitely be back!
I loved this Inn. It was isolated but the pub was still lively until 9:00 p.m. and then it closed for the night. The restaurant serves excellent food. The staff is friendly and helpful. The environs of Branscombe cannot be beat for a restful, stunning location, very near nice pebble beaches. I plan to go back!
Cute little village and the room was beautiful and roomy. The food in the restaurant was delicious and the service friendly and welcoming. The parking lot is a tight squeeze but it worked out. We will definitely return as we don’t have too much time to really check out the town.
We absolutely loved our stay at the Masons Arms. We came down at lunchtime for an evening event we were going to at the Branoc Hall. We had lunch at the Masons Arms before heading up to the Hall. The lunch was superb, all the staff were friendly and bent over backwards to help us. Our room was delightful with a water feature outside of our front door, such a shame the weather hadn't been better as we could have sat outside and had our morning coffee. We had the full english cooked breakfast which was amazing, cooked to perfection. We would not hesitate to book in again if we need to be in that part of the country. We might even book a night away there as a treat at sometime in the future. I would highly recommend.
Excellent Quadruple room above the bar. The Village and hotel look exquisite! Both evening meal and breakast were wonderful. Only two issues. The room is rather dark with no bright light near a mirror. Some noisy music from below in the evening and morning, I think while closing and opening up the bar. When paying the rates for this stay, I would not expect these minor issues.
