This is a very lovely historic building and as such is quaint and quirky (creaky floors and sticky windows) but that is all character. The room was very comfortable and clean, and the service very friendly and excellent. Breakfast choices a bit limited but very nicely done. A beautiful village to have a wander around. Would use it again as a convenient stopover.

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.

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!

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.

Lovely stay close to Exeter

Cosy twin bedroom with an en suite (with a lovely power shower) on top of a quiet pub with great food. I am gluten free and the kitchen were very knowledgeable and keen to accommodate my needs. The gluten free fish and chips were to die for. And the cooked breakfast was very generous.

Thorverton Arms is a very nice pub in a quiet and attractive village. Although it feels as if it is in the middle of the countryside it is convenient for Exeter. There are opportunities for country walks with the millennium green nearby. The pub is clean and the food is good.

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!

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.

Made to feel very welcome. Renovations being carried out to front of building, which meant bedroom window could not be opened. Comfortable room and bathroom for both myself and friend, plus our giant dog, who was also made to feel very welcome. Enjoyed the restaurant meal, with large portions. And the village was beautiful, with a dog friendly field just around the corner from the pub. Very enjoyable overnight stay, and would happily stay thete again. It will be even better when the front renovation is finished.
