On arrival the receptionist on duty was extremely helpfull and informative.Our bedroom in the in the annexe was acceptable although the bathroom facilities had problems which we reported. We had invited friends to join us for Dinner that evening alas the food was abysmal,two of uscordered cheese and onion pie and requested no vegetables or baked beans to accompany the said dish,the cheese and onion pie lacked cheese and flavour and.mushy, the chips accompanying the pie pale and insipid alas the scamoi and chips the samev. We certainly would not recommend dining at aThe Calf's Head .

I have literally done hundreds of reviews over 15 years with Expedia and this hotel is absolutely a top 3 contender. This is the BEST English country Hotel I have stayed at. The premises, staff and meals are superb. Do NOT bypass this hotel and I would even plan a trip to purposely include a visit. Loved every moment of our stay.

Hidden gem

Lovely hotel in a beautiful setting. Stayed in the deluxe king room with a large jacuzzi bath. All staff were friendly and helpful, and nothing was too much trouble. The food was lovely and they catered gluten free for me. Service in the bar and restaurant was 1st class. We have booked to stay again.
