Dinner was excellent. Cooked breakfast was good. Host offered to help with our bags. Open fire once in main building. Very attractive building to be coming to after a long drive and bad weather. Attractive large bedroom with en suite.

Our room could have been both aired and checked earlier. There were not just live wasps in, but dead ones too. Any kind of true check would have revealed their presence. Heating had not been on long enough on an awful November day to really make the room feel homely. (We arrived when we had indicated we would). All rooms seem to be in a separate building. This is v convenient for moving luggage from the very easy parking.

The Notley Arms is an absolutely beautiful property with well appointed rooms. The rooms were well done with beautiful pieces of furniture and everything you could possibly need. Simon and Caroline were amazing. My daughters loved their time here. They went absolutely above and beyond to make our stay amazing. The food was excellent and the service equally so. If you are lucky enough to stay here I assure you will have a great stay. The location is amazing the most beautiful part of the world. I will definitely be back

Nothing. I truly cannot find fault.

Such a romantic, comfortable hideaway right out on the moor. We arrived in the dark through beautiful locations with bats flying around the car and we were also late but owners insisted on looking after us and feeding us anyway. Food was absolutely outstanding and finished off with a birthday glass of champagne 🍾 Had a great chat with Simon after a lovely breakfast and he showed us the old church behind the property and gave us a load of history on it and on local sights. Room was comfy and clean and the bed super comfy. Great place :)

The setting, the staff, the food, the decor, the ambiance - everything about our 2 nights at Notley Arms was a lovely experience. We would highly recommend to others visiting the area.. Monksilver is a beautiful village and very convenient base for exploring Exmoor. Simon & Caroline are exceptional hosts treating each guest as special and have so much information about the whole area to share. The accommodation has character and lots of nice touches and is spotless. Never seen a cleaner shower anywhere on our travels - including at home!! Thanks for a wonderful time!

Sound proofing between rooms was slightly distracting but we understand how hard it is to achieve perfection in an old listed building full of character & beautifully restored.

The Notley Arms is located in a quiet village in Monksilver and is a family run business. Caroline greeted us with a huge smile and great sense of humour, exactly what you expect from a family business. The comfy rooms are in a separate building next to the pub. The pub itself is spacious and has lots of space to relax. We went with our dog to celebrate my wife’s birthday and we spent our evening sitting by the fire relaxing. Simon (the co owner) could not do enough for us and spoiled our dog each day with treats. If you like great pub food with fine wine selection, in a great location, genuinely dog friendly and a great base for exploring Exmoor National Park, then book yourself a weekend at the Notley Arms. Thank you Simon and Caroline for looking after us. Chris, Lisa and Buddy.

Deep in the green heart of the Quantocks, on the border of the Exmoor National Park, lies the tiny community of Monksilver. Located just a stone's throw from the parish church (where Sir Francis Drake was married) is the Notley Arms Inn. Mine hosts Simon and Caroline, friendly and informative, really do go the extra mile not only to make you feel welcome but to ensure that your stay is memorable. The food is excellent, and makes good use of fresh local produce, the accommodation is homely and comfortable - the sort of peaceful traditional country inn you just know you will be returning to at the earliest opportunity.

Nothing springs to mind.

This is a lovely village inn Loved and cared for by the owners Simon and Caroline and the staff chris, They are truly lovely people that can’t do enough for you and passionate about there village and exmoor The Inn food is superb and cooked to perfection using top quality ingredients And the breakfast was superb I stayed in the single room and the quality and decoration was beautiful and exceptional I can only imagine how good the four poster rooms are We came because of an event close by but honestly would come back here and only to here to experience exmoor Thank you All

Really lovely and helpful staff, beautiful decor. The evening menu was extensive and of clearly great quality throughout. I had a calamari with ‘slightly spiced’ mayonnaise starter, followed by a lamb shank with creamy mash and a jus. All absolutely delicious. More expensive than an average pub menu but this is definitely more of a restaurant than a pub and the food I had I considered great value. Breakfast was equally delicious. Will definitely return.

We booked in for evening as my son was getting married the following day.The Inn was warm and welcoming. The owners Simon and Caroline were the perfect hosts. The food menu was a delight and what we had was excellent. The room we were given was lovely. We had everything for tea and coffee and the nice touch was we were given a flask with fresh milk. Bed was very comfortable.

Couldn’t think of anything.

The property was absolutely stunning, the coach house where the rooms are situated - beautiful and the room was decorated with lovely wallpaper. The cushioned window seats were my favourite feature, sitting there with a cup of tea was just divine. There was a fantastic edition of a French press in the room with ground coffee which I’ve never had in a room before - this really made my morning as I love a cup of freshly brewed coffee when I get up.

Nothing at all.
