Denne lille perle et stykke uden for alfavej, viste sig at være så hyggeligt/autentisk, med værter som modtog een som var man en ven af huset. Der var så meget atmosfære, som vi håbede vi ville finde i en lokal Inn med beboer fra byen, som kom forbi med deres hunde osv.. Kan varmt anbefales.

Warm Welcome & good parking

Our hosts give us a warm welcome and were attentive throughout the stay. The Inn had good parking and access was easy, cleanliness was good. The shower had plenty of hot water and good pressure. Bedroom warmth was good despite thick old solid stone walls. The challenge in staying in these older properties is the room sizes which are small. The space was not helped by old fashioned beds with foot boards, though comfort was good. Our only negative was the bedroom lighting which was very poor with old incandescent low wattage bulbs. LED's would be better, cheaper and give more light.

Delightful weekend break

We had a wonderful time at the Notley Arms from a friendly welcome, high quality rooms and a very good evening meal. The staff were very friendly and accommodating regarding an elderly relative who wanted a meal in her room. Our meal was high quality restaurant standard with a good wine list. Monksilver is a picturesque Somerset village with good walking and access to the coast. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend this place and we will certainly return.

A lovely location, great room and ok service. The downside was that we were charged a supplement for a cooked breakfast. This has never happened to me before at any B&B. It is penny pinching and not acceptable.

A lovely setting in a small village The room we had was spacious and well equipped, We ate at the pub both nights of our stay and can recommend the food it was very well cooked and presented with a good selection, only downfall was the service charge automatically added to the bill, me personally would have liked to show my appreciation voluntary NICE PLACE to visit

Perfect out of the way retreat.

Beautiful pub with clean and well appointed rooms. Very friendly staff and good food and beer at night. Fantastic home cooked breakfast in the morning. This was a business trip and the super fast broadband was a real benefit both in the room and the bar area. Just be aware there was no mobile service anywhere in the property or outside. Also it is remote on small lanes and there were road closures on my visit with very poor diversion signs. Would be tricky to get to in bad weather, but I would certainly stop again as long as snow and ice were not forecast.

Lovely piece of rural England.

Lovely room, generally very quiet, but it is a farming area, so there is early morning traffic. Otherwise, a great place to spend a night. I have sampled many breakfasts in my time and this definitely rates amongst the top few. Evening meal also very good, sensibly priced and home cooked.

A lovely inn

Hosts were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast and dinner were excellent. Great choice of wine and beer. Room was nicely furbished in a converted barn. Nicely positioned in an under-rated part of Somerset.
