Breakfast was a little pricey but delicious, all local, great place to eat and watch the farm so don't mind paying a bit more. Superb value and quality. The farmyard apartment was super clean and very peaceful and quiet nights sleep. Love it here. My family live local and I travel from London and will always stay here when I can.

The Kingsdon Inn is located in a beautiful setting in a quiet village like from a fairy tale. From the very start they offered an exceptional food and service. It was literarily the best steak we have ever tried in our lifetime! The staff was kind and cool at the same time, they managed to have a great conversation while still beeing on their tasks. The cadance of meals was also perfect, served on time and they doublechecked if all was good half way through service. Breakfast served by the chef himself, really kind and professional guy who made the steaks a night before. As we spoke to other guests they confirmed their food was also top quality.
As we booked last minute via booking.com we had some promo discount and stuff included which was great! Room was modest yet stylish and had all you need for one night stay and beyond. We slept wonderfully in the most comfortable bed and top quality bed linnens. Room also had a fantastic shower with great steady tempreature and water prrassure. Dog was not just allowed but treated wonderfully by the staff. He didn't want to leave in the morning. The place had such a good vibe. Great location to take Jane Austine's style romantic walks in English countryside.

We only went for the Haynes motor museum on one day and Fleet Air Arm museum the next, both were excellent and well worth it. Sparkford central to both and didn't investigate the area further as we had our days planned.

I use this hotel/pub sometimes when travelling to Plymouth from London as it is very close to the A303, is family run, and has a good choice of food. In the Summer there are good walks over fields and footpaths to nearby villages, and in the winter ( or at any time of year) the nearby Haynes Motor Museum is a wonderful place to while away an hour or two with stunningly restored cars and motor cycles from around the world through the ages.

Sparkford itself is a linear town with little to see but it does have an excellent Museum of motoring which is outstanding . It is also surrounded by countryside but so it the whole of the west country . We ate a t the Sparkford Inn and the food was excellent - but some of the staff were grumpy and unhelpful .I would not stay at the Inn again .

Bathroom was not clean and smells all the time, and there is a step which is a trip hazard! No toilet brush and nothing was refreshed mid stay no clean towels and no no coffee tea etc was issued during our stay! Outside furniture yes but only 1 chair and small table for a family room. Property was understaffed and showed.

We had an evening meal which was good. Staff could have been more welcoming on arrival. The room kettle was situated where the plug did not reach the socket! Had to move furnisher around to boil water for hot drinks.

I enjoyed my stop over after driving down from London en rout to my holiday home in Devon.
Nice to follow footpaths across fields and visit the local church and then finish up with a glass of cider and a tasty meat pie and fall asleep in a warm and comfortable bed.
It sets me up for the rest of my journey the next day, which I could do in one day but I enjoy the stop over now and will keep going back there.
Conveniently located 10 minutes from friends we were visiting, Sparkford Inn offered good value accommodation for a 2 night weekend stay. We chose it for the large size family room that could accommodate our two boys and us comfortably and a decent breakfast was included in the price which was very reasonable. The room was very spacious, had nice linen and a large tv plus some basic tea/ coffee making facilities. The landlady was very accommodating of my 3 year olds request for ‘dippy eggs’ at breakfast.
Good old British 14th Century pub in the heart of Sparkford providing Traditional pub food and ales.
I ordered the Big mix grill which was massive .
The rooms were clean and spacious and clean .
Its been mordernaised but kept its historic feel and the staff are friendly .
Breakfast is availble ceareal tea toast .
If you want a cooked breakfast it comes at an extra cost
Has its locals in the week who are polite and make conversation .
overall i enjoyed my stay and will deffo be back in the spring/summer
Nice room with ensuite. Friendly staff on check in. Comfortable bed. Tea and coffee making facilities available. Fabulous complementaty, continental breakfast with lots of choice of cereals, croisants, yogurt, bananas, fruit juices and apples supplied to room. More than we could eat, thank you Sparkford Inn. Great value for money. would definitely stay again if in area.
Rustic Inn, spacious room, evening food was good, but breakfast not available (Macdonalds just up the road) & staff friendly.
Clearly affected by A303 By Pass which now goes round Sparkford.
Sparkford Inn is a beautiful old pub. Lots of interesting features and well maintained. Lady who served breakfast was lovely and food was good. Room was spacious and clean
