The hotel is situated in a beautiful, secluded and extremely picturesque location.
Everything is about quality over quantity from the number of rooms to the very well prepared meals, which clearly use the best ingredients.
Limited facilities, but this is part of the charm. The owners and waitress were always on hand to ensure satisfaction and are very friendly.
Not suitable for younger children, which will suit many older people looking for a few days of tranquility away from busy lives.

We stayed at the Hotel for four nights bed and breakfast. The room was spotless and top notch. Bathroom was very clean and high quality. We had dinner on our last night, using our ten percentage voucher. The standard of food and service was first class and made for an enjoyable conclusion to our stay.

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.

A delightfully adorned Georgian home converted to a small hotel and restaurant. We were sorry to leave before the sea shanty night on Thursday! The breakfasts and attention to detail were lovely. Will be back! Susan and Sharon

Had a superb 2 night stay here with our 2 daughters & our dog. Fantastic refurb of the bar & restaurant. Excellent plentiful breakfast. Very comfortable & spotlessly clean throughout. Very friendly staff who welcomed our dog as much as they did us! Perfect location to explore Lynmouth & Lynton. Couldn't ask for better. Thank you for having us! (photo is view from our room)

This was a home from home. We could not have been made to feel more welcome. After a 3.5 day drive from Corfu to walk through the doors of a friendly Great British hostelry was simply the best experience. Spacious accommodation in the Flat, plenty of room to unwind with my two dogs who were a little wound up after the long drive. A good nights sleep and the ability to run off steam in the field opposite, we all left relaxed and chilled. Pub grub was fabulous too! As I couldn’t stay for breakfast...

Graham and Annie (our hosts) were able to offer us any check time after 09.00. We actually arrived about 16.00 to be checked in immediately and shown to our room. The first night was a bit of a problem as the room overlooked the main road with a farm entrance across the road. The building is very old with thick stone walls and we needed the window open which was noisy with traffic throughout the night. On speaking to Graham the following morning, he was most apologetic and changed our room to...

A beautiful hotel set in lovely gardens on the edge of Dartmoor National Park. Friendly, attentive and helpful staff. Very good standard of food. The classic room we stayed in was spacious, comfortable and very clean. Perfect for a relaxing break once you have negotiated the 1.5 mile single track road to the hotel!
