We stayed at the Branscombe Arms in late October. The accommodation was gorgeous and the food delicious. Do book a dinner reservation, as there is no other option in the village itself. It has on-site parking and is in a great location, only a 10 minute walk from the beach and walking tracks. I would highly recommend it!

I loved this Inn. It was isolated but the pub was still lively until 9:00 p.m. and then it closed for the night. The restaurant serves excellent food. The staff is friendly and helpful. The environs of Branscombe cannot be beat for a restful, stunning location, very near nice pebble beaches. I plan to go back!

We absolutely loved our stay at the Masons Arms. We came down at lunchtime for an evening event we were going to at the Branoc Hall. We had lunch at the Masons Arms before heading up to the Hall. The lunch was superb, all the staff were friendly and bent over backwards to help us. Our room was delightful with a water feature outside of our front door, such a shame the weather hadn't been better as we could have sat outside and had our morning coffee. We had the full english cooked breakfast which was amazing, cooked to perfection. We would not hesitate to book in again if we need to be in that part of the country. We might even book a night away there as a treat at sometime in the future. I would highly recommend.

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.

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.

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.
