With its cosy, shabby-chic style, it's an undeniably charming and characterful place where everyone feels welcome. The bar area is filled with locals and their dogs enjoying a drink, while diners are spread across several dining rooms in which they enjoy the straightforward, satisfying cooking that derives plenty of flavour from the quality local produce.

Gidleigh Park

Modern Cuisine · ★ Michelin

££££

As you drive down the narrow, winding lane leading to Gidleigh Park, just know that you will be handsomely rewarded at the end of your journey. Situated inside a grand Edwardian mansion, this is the epitome of country house dining; the setting, both inside and out, is beautiful, while the cooking is underpinned by superb premium ingredients from lobster to venison. Their delicious natural flavours are showcased in classically based dishes with the odd dash of international flair. Any visit here is a joy, but staying over in the hotel makes it feel all the more special.

The Cornish Arms

Traditional Cuisine · Bib

££

It feels like nothing ever changes at The Cornish Arms – and that is meant in the best possible way. This traditional high-street pub continues to serve up proper pints, flavour-packed food and a joyous atmosphere. A mix of locals and tourists, drinkers and diners, are all well looked-after by the gregarious team, while the kitchen does its part with a menu of dishes that combine no-nonsense appeal with detailed and careful execution. The result is dishes like 'The BFG Trifle', where a Black Forest Gateau fuses wonderfully with a fellow staple pudding.
