Great country hotel with wonderful food, relaxing environment in the middle of the Devon countryside. Be aware that dinner is based on what is available but Tina is such a great cook you will be amazed with what is produced from her own garden and livestock. You will of course be asked if there is anything you would prefer not... More

We have eaten at the restaurant four times in total over the years and the food is every bit as outstanding as the expert reviewers say it is. However service is always very slow and choice is very limited. We find the atmosphere a bit off-putting as most of the guests seem to be financiers and accountants down from London;... More

After reading some mixed reviews I wasn't sure what to expect. But what a fantastic place, A warm welcome, an excellent room and all the things that make a stay more enjoyable. The first night we ate in the restaurant and loved every mouthful, my thanks to the chef in making such a visit well worthwhile. my only regret was... More

Percy's Country Hotel is not for you! My wife and I recently returned from a five day stay (predominantly business). On returning I wanted to leave a review on Tripadvisor and, having read some previous reviews, wondered if some of the reviewers stayed / ate at the same place! So heres the truth the whole truth and nothing but.. Percy's... More

The inspiration for this visit was Tina's cookery book which we had bought at the Ludlow Food Festival a couple of years ago. We checked the reviews with trip advisor and they were somewhat mixed but the values about food prominent in Tina's cookbook persuaded us to follow our instincts. We could wax lyrical about the lovely room, with it's... More

Spent 1 night here to celebrate my husband's birthday. Perfect from start to finish. We were warmly welcomed by Tony to our spacious room in a converted barn. Lovely to have a proper coffee maker and fresh milk in the fridge and the cake was yummy! The accommodation is not country house style, but extremely comfortable with good attention to... More

My husband and I spent the most wonderful three days at Percy's. The food was fabulous, very carefully prepared. We joined another couple for dinner at the suggestion of the host, and we had a great time. In the morning, we visited the hen house to choose our eggs; that was an experience! During the day, we took long walks... More

We liked the idea very much of a comfortable country hotel growing and preparing its own food, and indeed this is what they did. However, we never felt a particularly warm welcome, and teh rooms while perfectly functional did not feel particularly special. In addition the food while using excellent ingredients was in some cases bland and in others excessively... More

Arrived at the hotel for a two night stay to find we were not expected, although we had pre booked. We found we were the only guests staying at the hotel and were upgraded to a suite, which was nice. However the room was full of huge flies, some dead, lots still alive. The complementary cake on arrival was non... More

My Husband and I booked this night away at last minute. Just an hours drive from us it was the perfect Country retreat. When we arrived, we dropped bags and straight away went off to explore the 130 acre estate, guided by Percy's very own sheepdog and tourguide 'Sophie' ! Being foodies and 25 years experience ourselves in the hospitality... More
