I had a lovely stay at the Exeter Inn! Michelle and Martin gave me the warmest welcome, and the whole place felt instantly inviting. I met up with friends from Bampton for dinner, and the Festive Christmas menu was excellent — beautifully cooked and full of flavour. I stayed in the Brook bedroom, which was immaculate and thoughtfully supplied with plenty of toiletries. A genuinely delightful visit and I’d happily return. Thank you !

Under new management with a lot to get around. Staff and manager very pleasant and welcoming to a very old, rather tired coaching inn. Good breakfast and evening meal.

Check in was advertised at 3.00pm, arrived at 4.50pm but room was not available & hadn't been cleaned as the cleaner didn't turn up? Menu was reduced as the chef didn't turn up either and no toilet rolls in the bathroom. I gave my breakfast order the night before but it was not passed onto the cover chef in the morning, so in all not a great experience but...would I stay there again...definitely yes. Michelle and her team were amazing, they did everything possible to make my stay enjoyable and it was. The room was clean & spacious. The hotel is full of character & is attracting locals & passers by. Michelle and her partner had just recently taken over and need time to settle in and put their stamp on the business. I will certainly return and stay longer next time. Thank you Michelle and all

Lovely stay

I had a lovely stay here and cannot fault a thing about it. I stayed on a Tuesday night which is their supper club evening, the restaurant was fully booked but they managed to squeeze me in. The food was lovely and really good value at £19 for 2 courses. The breakfast was also delicious! The bed was incredibly comfy with a good selection of pillows. The toiletries in the bathroom were locally sourced and really good quality. I would 100% recommend and hope to return myself soon.

Breakfast restaurant closed ?

Breakfast isn’t served until 8.30am. Had arranged for an 8.15 slot, came down stairs to the restaurant To find it closed no one around. Waited until 8.30am still no one turned up. Really let the stay down. No good booking this for a business stay.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
From the previous reviews and the website we were hoping for really things. The food was okay but very small portions. The female owner was quite rude on arrival, seemed flustered and wasn’t that friendly throughout the stay. It was advertised as newly refurbished- it needs another good lick of paint and a good scrub. Overall it was just disappointing when you can see it has a lot more potential.

Charming inn

The room was very comfortable. The staff were so kind and helpful. We had dinner in the restaurant there and it was excellent. The hotel is situated right on the road so there was some traffic noise (we had the windows open) but it was no problem for us. Just a very charming place!

Fairly small, rural old British pub and Inn. It has been an Inn since the 1700s. Perfect if you want a traditional old British Inn experience. We loved it. Family group of five in two rooms.

Amazing

We had a difficult journey with major car trouble to get to the Exeter Inn. After feeling stressed, exhausted and completely done in we arrived at the Exeter Inn and was greeted by Johnathan and Pip who couldn’t have made us feel any more welcome if they tried. Wow, wow and wow these guys are amazing, the place was amazing and the breakfast in the morning was stunning. Thank you, thank you, thank you guys and we would definitely go back again!!!

The location of the pub is on a busy roundabout on a main road which is a bit noisy, It's a good base for getting to places around the area but there is not alot to do around the location. The people are very nice and the service is good. During my 2 night stay the chef had a problem with the food order so the menu was limited, however the food was good. The pub is a bit tired and in need of some decoration especially in the corridors, the rooms are comfortable however not serviced daily - cleanliness 6/10.
