Tarr Farm Inn

We enjoyed the circular walk around Tarr Steps and took a chance to call in to this fabulous pub/restaurant. They were busy but found a place for us. Wonderful atmosphere where dogs are welcome and get a towel to dry them off. Roaring fire and an amazing cream tea! Two huge scones with tons of delicious clotted cream and jam. More than enough in fact we shared. Highly recommended, great price, friendly staff. Other food looked brilliant too.

I stayed at Tarr Farm Inn, and while the setting is undeniably beautiful, I feel the overall experience doesn’t live up to what you’d expect from a property listed as 5 stars on Google (Not as per reviews but as per property type). In reality, it’s much more like a sought-after bed and breakfast rather than a full-service luxury inn. The location is lovely, quiet, and great for nature lovers. Dinner was good quality and enjoyable, though on the pricier side. Breakfast, however, was very disappointing. Hilary, the receptionist, came twice to remind us that breakfast would stop being served after 9:45, which felt a little unnecessary. We specifically ordered two vegetarian full English breakfasts, but after 20 minutes we were served plates full of meat. When we explained that we don’t eat meat, the attending staff were apologetic and said the wrong order had been conveyed by Hilary to the kitchen. Unfortunately, we then had to wait another 40 minutes before the correct breakfasts finally arrived. Overall, breakfast service took nearly an hour and left us feeling frustrated. The rest of the staff were excellent — very polite, attentive, and genuinely helpful. In summary, Tarr Farm Inn is in a lovely spot and serves decent food, There is no way it's a 5* property. It feels much more like a decent B&B than a luxury hotel.

Perfect stop on a circular walk,the pub was lovely and warm and the staff super friendly and helpful.A lovely cream tea with a decent selection of teas and they even served it with extra hot water,couldnt fault it.My friend enjoy his coffee and his ale. Lovely setting next to the Tarr steps I can’t recommend this highly enough.

This lovely old hotel is set within the Exmoor National Forest and sits in an elevated position, overlooking the ‘Tarr Steps’, an ancient stone clapper bridge. We stopped here for a drink after doing one of the circular Tarr Steps walk along the Barle River.|It was a beautiful, warm afternoon so we sat outside in the terraced garden area, enjoying the views of the bridge and surrounding farmland. |The owner/manager was very friendly and even though we were only stopping for a drink, she made us feel very welcome and told us a little about the curious ‘money tree’ we’d spotted during our walk through the riverside woodland. |It was a very pleasant spot to sit and soak up the atmosphere after our walk.

Stopped at Torr Farm Inn for lunch and was really impressed. A lovely spot in a beautiful location, serving excellent beer, really tasty food and dog friendly. The service and hospitality were brilliant – friendly, welcoming, and made the visit feel special. A perfect place to relax and enjoy good food and drink. Highly recommended!

Beautiful pub. Gorgeous setting - the kids loved paddling in the river. The pub lunch was perfect - portion sizes were ideal and the chips were to die for. Perfect kids menu too. Highly recommend.

Brilliant pub, all our food was delicious and came out quickly. Staff were particularly friendly and welcoming. Really beautiful setting after a walk around the river nearby. Pretty setting inside and out to sit. Definitely recommend a visit.

We finally got round to booking a table for food yesterday evening and wow, we've been missing out! The service was great, in house ale was great and the food was delicious, so much so that ive still been thinking about it all day today. Luckily for us this is only 15 minutes away so we'll definitely be going back to try the rest of the menu!
