People come to the Arundell Arms to fish and shoot and go riding, to walk, play golf, go bird watching, and to enjoy some of the loveliest country in England. The hotel, an old coaching inn on a site which dates back to Saxon times, is in a valley of five rivers, close to the uplands of Dartmoor. Not far away are the wonderful surfing beaches of the north Cornish coast, the ruins of Tintagel Castle, and the ancient fishing villages of Boscastle and Port Isaac where you can hire boats or pick your own fresh lobsters from their cages in the fish market. This is old England, miles away from civilisation, where buzzards float effortlessly in the updrafts of air from woods and hills, where kingfishers and herons haunt rivers, where you may see an otter or hear the strange eerie cry of a fox. At night you may even find a badger waddling ahead of you down one of the country lanes. This is a place where people come to relax, to get away from it all, to enjoy true Devon hospitality in warmth and comfort. We are proud, not only of the personal attention and consideration you will receive from everyone at the hotel from the moment you arrive, but of the cooking, which we believe is among the best in England. Our chefs, Philip Burgess and Steven Pidgeon both have the rare honour of being elected a Master Chef of Great Britain, two of only 80 in the country and our restaurant has been awarded top accolades by all the leading guides including the Good Food Guide. Almost all the produce we use is from local suppliers.
