The staff and the food was excellent . Exceeded expectations and the location is lovely . Unfortunately the room was a real disappointment in that it was dark with one little window . The lighting was orange/warm lights that made the situation worse and hard dark furniture/ walls . Also not well kept as ceiling damaged and looked a mess. Bathroom was beautiful and bright. Quite the opposite of the roo. Which I found depressing . Such a shame as staff food,location spot on but with room we were given I wouldn’t go back

Amazing room
Wonderful family room above the pub restaurant. Separate room for the kids and a massive ‘Jack and Jill’ type bathroom. Could have easily fitted in a bath!! Huge bed and plenty of space for us all in the main room. The nearby pebble beach (small pebbles) is a lovely place too.

True experience
A true experience! Lovely staff, cosy pub, amazing location. I recommend walking along the coast to Beer to have a Beer in Beer and then walk back have a swim at Branscombe Beach before finishing the day with a delicious meal at Masons Arms.

Great country Inn
We took a 5 day break at the Masons Arms. The bedroom was huge and well presented. Breakfast was a Buffet continental and freshly cooked English, all very good. The restaurant soon got booked up, and the food was good, One small problem was we charged all the food and drinks to the room, and settled on departure, but the hotel were unable to provide me with a VAT receipt for the food and drink , this would be a big problem had I been on business, and I have never encountered this issue elsewhere.

Great pub ,poor room
Stayed for two nights ,lovely pub with good food ,can be very busy with limited seating if raining. We booked a room advertised as a standard double room,however the room was not a standard size it was extremely small and very hot,I dread to think what it would be like in hot weather.

Perfect stay in beautiful Branscombe ☺️
Very last minute booking (on day of arrival) that did not disappoint! Excellent check in, before being shown to our stunning accommodation. Refurbished outbuildings done to a high standard, with everything we needed for our stay and more! Beautiful little village close to the beach - perfect for some rest and relaxation! Enjoyed an excellent evening meal with great service, followed by an equally good breakfast. Did not want to leave and will definitely return!

A very quaint and comfortable hotel- large room comfortably furnished with chair and settee and large bathroom with bath and separate shower. Delicious breakfast and excellent service . Only negative is the very narrow lane down to the village!

Really helpful team of staff
Really helpful staff. My wife left her AirPods in the bedroom and the hotel found them after we left and arranged for them to be posted back to us. From a moment of despair to a moment of elation knowing that the hotel had gone out of their way to help us. Good food, a very clean bedroom and bathroom, plenty of parking spaces, good village and a pretty beach nearby. Thank you for looking after us.
