Amazing hotel, amazing friendly staff. Felt at home with them. Bonus was the food was truly outstanding. Would recommend and we will be back soon. 5 star plus!!!
Turning up late, they kept the kitchen open for me and the food was excellent (and again in the morning!) History is palpable throughout but the creature comforts are well taken care of
This was an unscheduled stop on route to Cornwall due to bad weather. What a pleasant surprise, a beautiful old Inn a short distance from the A30. The staff were friendly and helpful, great service a lovely evening meal and an excellent breakfast. We will definitely be returning with hopefully better weather.
Outstanding from beginning to end. Great staff, great room, Loved the 4 poster bed, great evening meal (we had lamb dinner and mushroom gnocchi) quality good food. Were planning to go back near Christmas as it was such an all rounder great stay. Not the cheapest but nothing is cheap nowadays and the old saying ‘you get what you pay for’ applies here.
Hidden away in the beautiful village of South Zeal, The Oxenham Arms is one of those places that feels like a real discovery. A stunning historic building surrounded by gorgeous gardens, it has all the charm you'd hope for from a proper country inn. What really makes it special, though, is the wonderful team – warm, welcoming and genuinely friendly from the moment you arrive. If you're looking for somewhere with character, a peaceful off-the-beaten-track setting and fantastic hospitality, this is well worth a visit.
This is a unique pub, with historic connections, and recent celebrity visitors which was a big surprise.Very cosy and very friendly, with excellent service and food.
This lovely Hotel is steeped in history. The rooms are beautifully decorated and the food is very good indeed. Simon, Lyn and John are excellent hosts. We hope to return again soon.
Great place to escape to. Always a warm (and humorous) welcome from the host. Lovely location and local walks. Fab food and lots of historic references including ancient Menhir inside the pub and stones in the garden! Will be back
A warm welcome on arrival. Very fruendly landlord. Excellent food in the restaurant and a good breakfast cooked to order.
Our room was spacious and clean.
The only negative from me was that the mattress in the Bovey room was thin and I could feel the springs, so not the best nights sleep.
