The restaurant can seat up to 60 and has stunning views out over the Devon countryside and there is also a south-facing beer garden. The pub holds regular music nights and can also be booked for private parties and functions.

Had a meal here while on holiday and loved it so much we went back twice. Excellent tasty food, wonderful service, worth every penny. Beautiful views out the back and we wouldn’t change a thing.

Lovely place. Unlike any other. Has great views, lodges and an observatory. And excellent food.

Staff were absolutely brilliant and advised us to order quickly as they had a table of 18 about to order. Overall we’ve always enjoyed your food. However, my wife felt her fish dish from specials board was a little over cooked and the pastry on the two pies ordered a little undercooked. The two sticky toffee puddings were really enjoyed . A busy night when your chef was under pressure

A superb evening meal. The calamari starter was fresh and a decent portion. The batter was crisp and light. The Lamb Shank main dish was stunning. Tender, very little fat and very well cooked with a tasty Jus, fresh vegetables and a creamy mash potato. The dessert of a homemade Expresso Creme brûlée with chocolate icecream was delicious. Highly recommend this pub for its food, friendly staff and really comfortable room.

What a charming pub and restaurant. The welcome was warm and the food was great. A lovely send off for my daughters and their partners from their holiday with the rest of the family.

We had really been looking forward to having dinner at the Poltimore and specifically booked the dining room instead of the bar or snug areas. Sadly, whilst the food was good and the staff were extremely friendly, there was a very large party in the dining area, who were very, very noisy (shouting at each other whilst drinking shots) - and seemed to have no awareness of other diners trying to enjoy the space too. We ended up having just one course and leaving.

We had an excellent lunch here yesterday. It was a celebratory birthday meal so we were hoping for something special and it really was! The menu gives a great choice and the food was beautifully cooked and presented. And, the view from the restaurant is lovely! We're planning a return visit soon.
