Having to go outside to access the bedrooms

Very comfortable rooms with good bathrooms en suite; brilliantly relaxing after a day walking. Excellent dinner in the pub cooked to a good standard washed down by some lovely beer and wine!

Limited parking. For breakfast some fresh fruit would have been lovely.

Great location. Lovely food and comfortable rooms. Dog friendly and nice staff.

If you are a light sleeper or a person that likes an early night the noise from the bar below the rooms is intrusive. It doesn't quite down until around 11:45pm. the car parking is inadequate, we don't have a big car and struggled to get un.

Good location, friendly helpful staff. Good food, excellent breakfast. reasonable prices

Not complaints as none of it affected us, but things to be aware of. This is a 14th century building so there are narrow stairs to the rooms. The rooms are compact, and the ceiling in our shower would probably not suit anyone over 6ft in height. Parking is very limited during busy times. Access to the village is via a narrow , single track, road. We thought it was characterful, but if you’re picky, you might see it differently.

Super friendly staff at the bar and at check in the evening we arrived. The room is compact, but had all the facilities for our one night stay, and the en suite shower room was excellent. The bed was comfy and despite the restaurant being fully booked with 92 guests and a stag party, we had a completely undisturbed nights sleep. Although we didn’t eat in the evening, the menu looked very good, especially the seafood options. Price for a bank holiday Friday, including a brilliant cooked breakfast, was very competitive. A short stroll down the road to the beautiful beach and views over the river Avon.

The mattress wasn’t very comfortable. I could feel the inside of the mattress and it was slightly down on one side. However, not a deal breaker as the rest of the stay was excellent.

Everything! Lovely rooms, excellent location and fabulous food both evening and breakfast.

The rooms were a little cramped and could be hot at times along with a little noisy being above the pub but that did die down later in the evening. The rooms met our needs but were very basic.

Good location to the beach and Bantham estate, handy having the rooms above the pub itself for food and drinks.

Entrance to accommodation, grubby carpets throughout, limited parking on site or nearby, mattress tired.

Nothing.

Proximity to beach.

The staff in the bar were not very welcoming, and the stay was entirely self service, name on a board and key in door. This was unusual for a B&B pub.

Breakfast was plentiful and ok. Room was simple and clean. Tea and biscuits available self service.

Really nice room, very cosy

Bright comfortable room. Short walk down to the beach.

Just for information, parking is very limited (although it was possible to find an overnight space) and guests should expect to park in the main beach car park if arriving during the day. This is an old building and walls / floors are thin - noise travels from the bar and restaurant below and also between rooms! The cooked breakfast (included) was good but other choices were limited (no fruit, yoghurt for example, limited cereals). Those awful butter portions! The lady serving breakfast was clearly not mentally present, she failed to greet us on arrival and service was perfunctory at best, a big contrast to what we had received in the bar and restaurant the previous evening. Attention is required also to cleaning of the bathrooms.

The Sloop Inn is in a wonderful location, just a short walk from Batham beach and quay. We were welcomed into the Inn on arrival and found our room well located with a good view down to the estuary. Rooms are well proportioned with modern, nautical decor. The bed was well-sized and comfortable and the bathroom well-appointed. Dinner was excellent and like the rest of the stay, very good value, with the chef / landlord making a particular effort to ensure guests were happy in the evening.

Bed was uncomfortable and a bit small.

Staff, food and location

Stayed in May 2025

Nothing to dislike as long as you remember you are staying in a hotel that was built 100's of years ago and full of character.

Friendly staff, excellent food, car parking, Dog Friendly, and 2 minutes to the beach. Perfect stay with your dog. The room was clean and warm. I have stayed several times recently and will continue to return as it suits my needs perfectly.

Food was ok, but not great if you don't want fish!

Location is on the south west coastal path, so its convenient, although the ferry finishes at 4pm in the afternoon, which is a pain

Overall the stay was very good but the bedding was a little tired. Also one of the staff members who served breakfast on our first day was really not very happy and we felt a little uncomfortable.

The location is amazing, very close to the beach with beautiful views across the estuary. Very dog friendly, the dogs had a wonderful time. Bar staff lovely.

The limited time of 0900-0930 for breakfast wasn't ideal.

Lovely place in a lovely location. Conveniently placed on my walk, close to the ferry. Very quiet. Excellent evening meal. Breakfast nice. Staff friendly & helpful, lending me a charging plug (for a few days) when mine failed.
