The Masons Arms, hotel in Branscombe

The Mason Arms is located on Devon’s Jurassic Coast, just a 10-minute walk from Branscombe Beach.

We found everything about the Masons Arms to be exceptional. The property is well maintained and is located on a quiet street in a small village, which the setting allowed us to relax and enjoy the overall experience. The room was very well appointed, with a very comfortable bed and large en-suite. Dinner and breakfast in the restaurant was both very delightful.

Sid Valley Country House Hotel, hotel in Branscombe

Set in 14 acres of outstanding natural beauty, this country house bed and breadkfast with cottages and a heated outdoor pool offers a relaxed atmosphere, professional service and luxurious...

Our flight was delayed so we arrived after the restaurant closed. The owner and his wife made us welcome, even though they had closed for the night. They very kindly opened a bottle of wine and made us a wonderful dinner. Throughout the stay their hospitality was amazing. The owner would not let us walk to the bus stop, instead he very kindly drove us all the way to Sidmouth in his own car! They really could not have done more for us!

Bedford Hotel, hotel in Branscombe

Set on Devon’s Jurassic Coast, Bedford Hotel is located on Sidmouth’s seafront. It has individually designed rooms with flat-screen TVs, limited free parking and a restaurant overlooking Lyme Bay.

The staff was very very helpful. They gave us a room with an excellent view along the Esplanade. The breakfast was really good. We also liked that it was shoulder season and had fewer people. It was really nice walking into town and along the coastal trail.

    I would imagine Branscombe would once have been a pleasant...

    I would imagine Branscombe would once have been a pleasant little community but now it appears to be a lock up and leave village which is really sad. Like so many other small village dotted around the U.K. there seems to be no sense of community, probably bustling in summer months with holiday makers. There is a lovely walk from the village down to the coast along the river side part way. There are footpaths but some are hidden. A quiet spot for an early spring break but watch the narrow windy single track roads and pray you don’t meet a lorry! There are great coastal paths here for walkers and it’s a nice spot for dog walks. The rooms at the Mason’s inn are impressive and comfortable. The little kitchen area in ours lacked cutlery, wine glasses, tea towels and a kettle. It had two fridges though and a coffee machine where you could get hot water. We really missed our cappuccino in the mornings for breakfast, the coffee provided at breakfast wasn’t great. All in all Branscombe is a nice place for a short stay.

    We stayed in Branscombe because it was close to the location we were visiting the next day. It was a lovely village and the beach was only half a mile away. We could've spent at least two or three days there at the hotel.

    Comfortable large double bed and large room and bathroom.

    Comfortable large double bed and large room and bathroom. But we gave manager a list of "niggles" (e.g. light in bathroom mirror not working) that were not put right during our stay. Decent food though sometimes overcooked. All staff very friendly and helpful including taking suitcases to our room - important when there are so many steps. Only outside space was immediately onto car park.= - no garden or lounge. Although we liked the hotel, overall we felt it was rather overpriced.

    Beautiful village with lovely walks.

    Beautiful village with lovely walks. We took the coastal path around the cliffs to Beer, which was challenging in parts, and the cliff top walk back. I’m so glad we did it that way round as the hill back down to Branscombe beach was so steep there was no way I’d have managed to climb it. We walked up the hill to The Fountain Head pub one evening and had a fabulous meal; would definitely recommend a visit as apart from the excellent food, the staff were great too.

    Very pretty mostly unspoilt village with blacksmith and 10 minute walk or short drive to the beach. Not good for cars so ideal for walking and photo opportunities abound. Some interesting history around the older buildings

    The pub is situated in a very picturesque village. We were greeted by a very friendly man called Jose. He explained to us that due to staff shortages, a cooked breakfast would not be availabe during our 3night stay. Instead, we had a delicious breakfast with cereal, fresh fruit, croissants, toast and jam. All very substantial. There is a beach at Branscombe …half a mile away and a beautiful coastal walk from the church in the village. We also liked looking at the forge where the blacksmith makes lots of items.

    We did a last minute short break as the weather was excellent, the roads to Branscombe are a challenge and buses and tractors add a lot of excitement. The Masons was superb the rooms are really well decorated and in excellent condition and very clean. The food was also superb we had the Sunday roast beef which packs the place out even in the evening. All the staff were very helpful and genuinely friendly.

    Excellent food and amazing staff. Need to give big accolade to Finlay.Not just a great breakfast chef but came to my rescue when my car had a suspected puncture...a really decent kind chap who gave his help willingly without question. Also Joeo for his fantastic cocktails and joyful presence. He brought cheer to a very wet week. All of the staff are a delight...they are the best part of this hotel !

    We have visited the UK three times over 35 years and have always visited Branscombe and stayed at The Masons Arms. It is unique world wide in our opinion and hopefully we will be back one day. The whole Hotel team should be congratulated on their efficiency and friendliness. So too the Owners for maintaining the uniqueness of the facility, keep up the good work. Peggy and Lindsay Thomas

    The rooms are well decorated in a traditional style but with all the modern facilities you expect from a hotel room, great shower and bed! Staff are lovely always with a smile even when under pressure. The location is great really picturesque village and 10’ walk from branscombe beach. Roads are narrow so driving there is an adventure.

    All staff were very friendly and welcoming and went out of their way to help. We were upgraded to a Branscombe room on the second night which was delightful. The room was incredibly spacious and well laid out. It had a lovely light and airy feel to the room with a lovely garden view and of the village. Evening meal was delicious.

    Branscombe is a beautiful village close to the sea and the Masons Arms is a delightful place which, despite many updates, still retains the feel of a village pub. We enjoyed our evening meals especially the tapas starters and puddings. Breakfast was good.

    The location - Branscombe - has been our favorite place to visit for over 25 years, and Smugglers Close was the icing on the cake with it far more than we expected as we had not stayed there previously.
