  Visited The Devonshire Arms and had a really enjoyable experience. It’s a lovely traditional pub with a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere, making it a great place to stop for a drink or something to eat. The pub has plenty of character and feels comfortable from the moment you walk in. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the service was good throughout our visit. There’s a good selection of drinks available and plenty of seating, making it a nice place to sit back, relax and enjoy some time with friends or family. Overall, a lovely pub with a friendly atmosphere and good service. Definitely worth stopping by if you’re in the area, and I’d happily visit again.

  Great characterful pub. Good selection of beers and ciders on tap and in bottle. Very friendly staff and great location in the middle of the village.

  Location was nice being a quaint village and free ample parking. ​We arrived around 16.30, had to wait a few mins due to lack of staff. Once checked in we were told food had already stopped being served on the Sunday and wouldn't be serving drinks after 19.00; due to a private function (not mentioned on their website or via any communication through booking.com) ​The whole point of choosing this pub with accommodation was so we could celebrate our wedding anniversary, enjoy food/drink and not have to drive anywhere. ​We had no option but to look at decent alternatives for dinner which involved a 1.5 mile drive to The Manifold Inn, Hulme End, (they serve Sunday roasts that are delicious: wish we had stayed there instead). ​The Room:- Spiders/cobwebs/dust throughout the bedroom and bathroom. Showergel dispenser - totally empty. Dodgy hairdryer plug coming apart and out of date Pat Test. ​Light fitting loose/hanging out of the ceiling. Paper thin walls between other bedrooms - banging doors, hear neighbouring conversations, noisy bathroom extractor fan from room 1. ​Nearby church bells ring every hour for whichever number it represents so yes 12 at midnight! ​Due to summer heat, we had to have our window open. Unfortunately for us, it was bin day the Monday morning we left ... we were treated to loud, sweary bin men collecting The Tea Room's bin as our room overlooked it. ​We left feeling exhausted and disappointed. If it wasn't for the Manifold Inn rescuing our evening meal, our anniversary would have been ruined. At check out, there was no obvious staff around (as they don't serve breakfast) so simply had to leave the room key on a table. Won't be returning and we don't recommend staying. Had we known food wouldn't be served we would never have kept the booking. Shocking communication on the side of the Devonshire Arms.
