Visited with friends for evening out. Our table was in the first section inside the entrance door. It was a cooler night and windy but most of the evening was spent closing the door to keep out the cold wind particularly as there was a steady stream of smokers coming and going in addition to diners arriving. Furthermore, the door... more

3 hours door-to-door by train and you can be in the most perfect seaside escape from London. You can lay in bed (or a chic bath) in a lovely, tasteful room and look out on an amazing view of the wild south Devon coast. The staff are incredibly friendly, and the food is fantastic - and locally sourced. And for... more

We stayed here in september. It really is a hidden gem. The less people that know about it the better! Yet i find myself sharing my experiences on trip advisor, but then i classify Tripadvisor followers as the elite of travelers so you should definitely stay here. This hotel has it all, fantastic ambience, amazing food set in the surroundings... more

This was the best hotel we have ever experienced. It was a superb room and ensuite with an absolutely incredible view from every window. One could relax in the deep bath with views of the sea! The crisp bed linen and very comfortable bed were fantastic. The pod, siituated in the residents private garden overlooking the rocks, was extremely unique... more

We stayed at The Cary Arms from 4th to 7 September and were greeted with a warm welcome and a glass of bubbly. Tony the assistant manager took our case to the room and Jen the Manager showed us around the terrace and gardens which were lovely. Our room was lovely too, the bed and pillows were so comfortable. The... more

...and that might help you to imagine the Cary Arms. We caught it on a sunny day in August and it looks great. At first sight inside the impression is of a smart country pub with especially cheery staff. For guests going through to the bedrooms, there's that nice feeling of having landed on your feet: bedrooms are impressive, spotless... more

Our family enjoyed a fabulous 3 night stay at the Cary Arms in August. The location is great, right on the sea, with wonderful views. The staff were very helpful and enthusiastic and even took us out on their boat for the afternoon. The food was excellent and our room was clean, bright and decked out in nautical style, with... more

My husband and I have just returned from a long weekend at the Cary Arms to celebrate our 5 year anniversary, and thoroughly enjoyed it. Having had very mixed experiences at UK hotels in the past (usually bad), and wondering if the cost of the room would really be worth it, we were sold by the website and the friendly... more

We stayed at The Cary Arms for a whole week and it was fantastic. Above all else, the customer service is extremely good, with very friendly staff and efficient service. There is a real sense of teamwork and pride amongst the people that work here. Our room was fantastic with windows looking out to the sea and a small terrace.... more
