This hotel is magic, fantastic atmosphere, lovely bar, brilliant breakfast and the Thai restaurant is to die for

We visited for an early evening meal, the food was amazing, helped by Richard, the owner, the whole party enjoyed their food. I wish we lived closer, to revisit.

Highly recommended! Richard was a fantastic host, friendly and attentive. Nat’s a fantastic cook. It’s the best Thai food we’ve had in the UK.Very family friendly - We were two couples with our 6 year olds who were also very well looked after. The children loved the food too.Rooms and bathrooms were clean and tidy.The location is perfect if you want to be close to beaches like Lyme Regis, Charmouth, Seaton etc.We will definitely be going back!

The owner is really unfriendly, would never imagine this is a 4 star hotel service, would not recommend this to any of my friends.

Outstanding quality freshly cooked meals.The best Thai food you would want to try and try again cooked by Nat ( Richard's wife).Nice celection of drinks too!Located in beautiful area with car park just outside of the hotel.It has pretty stable WiFi.Cosy rooms and very comfortable beds.Best customer service! Richard ( the owner) will accommodate you with all your needs and make you feel at home.You will feel there well looked after.We have really enjoyed our stay there and definitely will be back again!

A wonderful and quaint farm hotel! We had a lovely stay and will definitely return back! Authentic Thai food, charming buildings and a superb host who delighted us with his sense of humour!Worth 5+ stars!

Stayed here for a wedding just up the road, great location for the venue.Our room was nice enough, but quite close to the road and the single glazing didn’t help to stop traffic noise (it’s an old building so I can understand why this hasn’t been upgraded).The shower in our room was quite fiddly, and a bit of a challenge to get the hot water to come through. With some persistence I got there. The water pressure isn’t great, and neither was the heat, but served a purpose just about.The owner seemed a bit stressed at times as the B&B was full without many staff; given the current circumstances this was understandable by many guests.We had a Thai buffet on the Friday night, the food was excellent but overpriced in my opinion at £30pp. The breakfast was very good too, although a hash brown or two would have been good!I wouldn’t rush back to stay here for a relaxing weekend away but would do a few nights if there was another wedding at the Church nearby.

This is a hidden gem! We booked for a 2 night stay simply because it was a short drive to the donkey sanctuary which was the main reason for our visit, we ended up adding an additional night to our stay because we loved it so much. A lovely family run hotel & restaurant, The accommodation was so lovely, clean, comfy, everything needed and a picturesque building. On arrival we were greeted by Richard who had us laughing from the moment we arrived up until the moment we left, there was nothing he wouldn’t do for you. The food (cooked by his lovely wife) was no less than incredible, the best Thai food I have eaten. Richard looked after everyone (not just our group) as this is a family run business, all food is fresh and cooked whilst you wait, and the best part of the wait was the jokes, conversation and banter with Richard and other parties in the bar or as Richard joked “the holding room”, you’re then escorted to the restaurant by Richard as dood is being plated up and brought out to you or again as Richard joked “just eat/deliveroo” drops the food round.Breakfast is lovely, fresh fruit, yoghurt, jams and fresh juices whilst you wait for cooked breakfast, Richard even remembered every morning who in our party had a pot of tea, even who drank decaf, and who had coffeeThis place has a personal touch and makes the holiday and holiday, I absolutely loved it and will gladly return ASAP.

We recently took our five year old granddaughter to this hotel for a short break. She is very shy among strangers but with Richard and Nat she was completely at ease. The hotel was spotless and nothing was too much trouble. They run the hotel by themselves and keep everything spotlessly clean. We have never eaten Thai food before but when we ate in the restaurant the food was amazing. Beautiful food and generous portions. We shall definitely be going back again soon hopefully with the rest of the family. We would recommend it to anyone with or without children

If you wrote an industry manual on good B&B/local hotel service this place (particularly Rich the owner) would/should be the benchmark in my view. The service is impeccable (super friendly & welcoming without being overbearing) - you feel like you are guests in their home that they genuinely care about. The rooms are spacious and spotless with very comfortable beds and decent quality towels and bath/shower gels etc.I cannot recommend their food highly enough either. Whilst you clearly need to like Thai food for it to be a sensible venue for dinner (albeit they are very flexible to accommodate your relative spice level desire and any other requirements you may have), if you do you’ll be amazed by the freshness, flavours and overall quality of the dinner. I would be astounded if there was any Thai restaurant within a couple of hours drive that comes even close to it. The chef (the wife) is Thai which is clear as soon as you see and taste the authentic food. Admittedly coming from London, I found the prices insanely good value too, not just for the food and drink but the hotel as a whole.If you are after the latest/modern design and furniture etc then this (clearly) isn’t for you. If however you are after a family run local hotel that bends over backwards to deliver a memorable and comfortable stay with delicious food and a very well stocked bar then don’t even bother look elsewhere – book here.Thank you for such a lovely stay!
