Don’t stay here! We had an awful room hard twin beds. The place had music full blast. The staff were playing football outside during their breaks. It seemed rough. We checked out and booked another hotel in Exeter.
Lovely little find in a beautiful village. Have stayed twice and will come back again. Staff all very helpful. Great gluten free food options.

Gone downhill since our last visit
The check in and welcome was spot on.
Room was tired with several stains on the carpet. We ate here and felt like we were sat in the staff area . They were eating and drinking and there was lots of swearing, not what you really want to see and hear in a not particularly cheap stay.
Not the first or last time I have stayed here. I always know what to expect, from the welcome, brilliant food, great atmosphere, and comfortable room. I could here noise from the bar and kitchens but all quiet before 11oclock
We enjoyed our stay at the Kings Arms, Otterton. It was a charming village location. The room, although small, was clean and nicely decorated.
The food was lovely and the Continental breakfast was one of the best we've had. We would definitely stay again
Lovely little village,friendly staff ,excellent choice of food,lovely clean fresh room.Would definitely come again perfect choice for a short break.Staff were all extremely helpful friendly and polite

Nice enough but too many dogs
Beds are comfortable and there are tea/coffee making facilities. Bathrooms are clean and there is plenty of hot water. Car parking is easy.
They provide a fan which was useful as the traffic is a bit noisy to have the window open.
Curtains are very thin so the room is light from early morning.
They don’t offer a cooked breakfast on Wednesday or Thursday mornings but there is a continental choice of toast, pastries, cereal and yoghurt.
There are a lot of dogs in the pub and dining areas, it is very dog friendly and gets a bit smelly! There was even a puddle on the floor one evening for over 2 hours. It put us off our food a bit.
Great dog friendly pub. Friendly staff. Clean and comfortable room. All the facilities you need. Soft bed but I like it that way. Room would benefit from blackout curtains. Breakfast was simple but there was still plenty of choice. Good value. Really enjoyed our stay.
Charming little hotel. Small, clean room. Good dinner in the pub. Possibility to store bicycles in a secure room.

Nice village pub. The ale was excellent. Pretty small room with tiny bathroom. Overall enjoyed our stay. We ate at the pub and the food and choice was pretty good. The fish pie was a little dissapointing, didnt see a prawn, and no smoked haddock to give flavour. Some nice walks by the river. Unfortunately didnt have time for the long walk to the coast and Ladram bay. A pity there was not close parking to do that.

woken at 6.30am by very loud music from kitchen after little sleep on uncomfortable beds! Thanks for nothing - Mother's Day and one HR less sleep due to clocks going forward
It was in a lovley village and the room was okay with all you needed for a 2 night stay. Staff were friendly i just wished it was a full free cooked breakfast rather than just a free continental breakfast . For the price of the room i think it was a bit expensive. But overall a lovley place.
