Eating Out...

If you'd like to treat yourself to a pub lunch or go for some city dining while you're staying, to take a break from the rustic cooking, then take a look at our selection below. We're so fortunate to have a diverse range of options to eat out and Devon is famed for its local produce, so do take the time to try some different places.

Local Pubs

All these beautiful pubs come highly recommended and are all within a 5 mile radius, with a couple being easily walkable - so if you fancy a stroll from the yurts to grab a pub lunch then they'll tick the box!

A nice stroll away...
The Ashill Inn, Ashill - small but perfectly formed, that goes for the pub itself and also the local, seasonal menu.

Wyndham Arms, Kentisbeare - our village local OK for drinks on the courtyard deck, not all that nice inside and we unfortunately don't recommend eating here.

Bit of a further walk...
The Drewe Arms, Broadhembury - historic pub with fantastic menu and great quality food and drink.

Culm Valley Inn, Culmstock - riverside setting, you can take your drinks in plastic cups across the road to the river beach. Usually good dining.

Best to drive there...
Keepers Cottage, A373 direction Honiton - thatched cottage with plenty of parking and generous plates of hearty food. 

The Merry Harriers at Westcott - good to combine with a visit to The Bear Trail or National Trust Killerton. They still have a couple of dinig pods outside for a fun dining experience.
