This was one of our best small hotel stays. The room and separate bathroom were excellent, the owners were lovely and the chef-cooked breakfast was top notch. Located in a quiet village and close to the sea, Difficult to know how it could be bettered.
Excellent homecooked breakfast with lots of choice.
Easy off road parking.
Spacious, quiet airy rooms.
Very friendly and helpful hosts.
10 minute walk to the beach and restaurants/pubs.
Such a lovely place! The bedroom was spacious with a wonderfully comfy bed, and in room coffee bags, fresh milk and cake on arrival. Felt very spoilt! And to cap it all, breakfast was absolutely excellent.
Very friendly welcome and lovely spacious room. A thermos of fresh milk was ready for us every evening on the reception counter for tea/ coffee in our room the next morning. Breakfast was delicious with excellent selection of fruit, yoghurt, granola and choice of cooked breakfast. The location is excellent too. A short 10 minute walk and you're on the beach at Instow. Overall a very enjoyable and relaxing stay.
A very warm welcome from Caroline to a beautiful house overlooking the surrounding countryside and near the church. Clean and comfortable with tea and coffee facilities in the room (plus bonus cake - always welcome!) and a great breakfast selection. It was particularly nice to have the option of pancakes in addition to the usual full English or cereals, pastry and yoghurt. Walking distance to Innstow restaurants.

Lovely rooms, spotlessly clean. Very comfy beds and amazing breakfast !
Wonderful and imaginative breakfast menu with many options. Lovely setting on a hillside overlooking the valley and just a few minutes from the sand dunes and beaches of the estuary.
Very warm welcome from our hosts and can thoroughly recommend to others.
The hosts and the reviews lived up to our expectations. Great Location, the local pubs were very welcoming and the food in the instow Arms was very nice.
Such a lovely place to stay. Quiet and relaxing with beautiful surroundings and an excellent breakfast.

Excellent on every level
Absolutely brilliant. Gorgeous rooms, terrific breakfast and the hosts were charming.
A utterly wonderful and charming place to stay. Caroline and her husband are the most warm and welcoming hosts. Beautiful rooms, all individually decorated, a marvelous breakfast, beautiful and warm atmosphere. Highly recommended.
Super friendly and welcoming host, a comfortable and attractive room, home-made cake every afternoon and wonderful breakfasts. The B&B is an easy walk to a stunning beach and various restaurants. We ate out at The Glorious Oyster and The Boat House - both recommended but we preferred the former for its relaxed, beachy vibe and quality of the dishes.
Spent 2 lovely nights at Instow Barton in August. Stayed in bedroom 3 which was lovely size. Very comfortable bed and amazing selection for breakfast.
Will certainly stay again if down that way.
Caroline was very helpful and welcoming.
We had a super stay. An excellent welcome. Every convenience we could have wished for. Spotlessly clean accommodation. Comfortable bed. Great breakfast. Top class hospitality.
Stunning and tasteful accommodation in a beautiful, peaceful location. Delicious breakfasts and outstanding cake and pastries prepared on the premises by welcoming hosts. Fabulous in all respects.
Property was in a lovely peaceful location and our room was a good size and immaculately clean. Hosts were lovely and very welcoming. Loved the little touches like fresh milk and the homemade cake was wonderful. Breakfast was also amazing. Would highly recommend.
Lovely room overlooking the garden and countryside and sea with a very comfortable bed, delicious breakfast with homemade goodies, could not have been better.
We certainly would not hesitate to book again.
Thank you, Caroline and Colin, for looking after us so well and for all your very funny stories about your horses, dogs and cat 😄
