Great spot for exploring Devon/Somerset from. It would be nice if breakfast was included in the room rate, not the best value for money. ##### Kerry Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2019 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Neil 10 Feb 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A great little inn Another relaxing stay. A warm welcome at the Rock Inn. The bedrooms are very comfortable/clean with the nice touch of real milk (no little jiggers), real coffee and home-made cakes to welcome you. Dinner was, as always, very enjoyable. My duck was expertly cooked & rested to it melted in my mouth. My wife's omlette Arnold Bennett was very "fluffy" with lots of vhunks of smoked haddock. The stciky toffee pudding had lots of sauce & cream - lovely!! The Rock has a wide range of local ales & selection of gins. The Otter Ale was very clear and went down well!! Breakfast had lots of local produce and home made jam & marmalade accompanied with very good coffee and "proper" orange juice. We will be returning soon. ##### Neil Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2019 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeremy 17 Sept 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Rocking Inn at the Rock Inn At first appeared that I had made a mistake. Outside seemed little tired, but once inside very pleasant. Room was excellent from wide screen TV to good wi-fi all the 21st century desires. On site restaurant and bar top notch, very wide local produces available on varied menu, prices low for the food and service. Full English breakfast also with local sourced produces. ##### Jeremy Stayed 1 night in Sep 2018 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### George 13 Aug 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Characterful country boutique inn. A characterful old inn family run with truly excellent food at dinner cooked by husband/chef. Rooms tastefully apportioned. Our standard double was small & there was a bath but no shower. Ideally located in deepest rural Somerset for serious walking & Hestercombe House/Gardens not far away. ##### George Stayed 1 night in Aug 2018 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Paul 9 Aug 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Friendly greeting on arrival.

Food "top notch" - the Somerset Brie Souffle was devine. Great ale too. Breakfast, freshly cooked, with "real" thick toast and homemade preserves - superb. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2018 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stephanie 23 Jul 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Myself and a friend came to visit watterow for a wedding. We stayed at the rock in because the pictures online looked scenic and very well kept. We arrived and received a warm welcome and the room was beautiful. Loved that the building is 450 years old makes such a nice change to stay in somewhere that has real history to it. Breakfast was delicious and cleaning staff very polite ##### Stephanie Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2018 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michelle 3 Jul 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful hotel We were only staying for one night as a a place to put our heads down whilst attending an event nearby but we would definitely return. Our room and the rest of the hotel was beautifully decorated and clearly maintained to a high standard. The welcome homemade brownies and fresh fruit were greatly enjoyed. We were setting off in the morning before breakfast was served but a lovely tray of granola (again I think this was homemade) and croissants along with fresh orange juice was provided which was greatly appreciated before a long drive home. ##### Michelle Stayed 1 night in Jun 2018 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Allen 3 Jul 2018 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Great food but no room in the restaurant The welcome was good although when we arrived it was closed, we tried to book a table in the restaurant but they were fully booked so we had to sit outside to eat, the food was good quality, well cooked and presented. We stayed in a room at the top, the bed was very hard, the shower was not useable as a stand up shower however the room was very clean. ##### Allen Stayed 1 night in Jun 2018 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Paul 25 Jun 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Weekend Break Lovely rural setting.

Fancied somewhere different for an overnighter en-route to Cornwall. What a great little pub. Shown to our room by our lady host. The room was lovely with a great shower. Nice touch of fresh fruit and a piece each of homemade brownie. The bar and dining area were very pleasant, and the local Otter ale went down very well. The meal was frankly superb, and well worth paying that little bit extra. Overall an excellent night. ##### Andrew Stayed 1 night in Mar 2018 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Athol 16 Oct 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Worth a visit of only four a evening meal outstanding ##### Athol Stayed 1 night in Oct 2017 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### lisa 29 Aug 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Room comfort #### Fantastic Food At The Rock Inn Bit out of the way, but food is fantastic!

I stay at many hotels throughout the year and I felt that they were not accommodating. There were more signs saying don't do this and don't do that. I wouldn't stay here again perhaps a little harsh, but i would rather take my business to somewhere who makes me feel welcome. ##### martin Stayed 1 night in May 2017 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alison 28 Apr 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Fantastic, friendly, clean exceptional The experience overall was fantastic.
