Very disappointed with the breakfast. Cooked breakfast did not include baked beans. The bacon and sausages were undercooked. They could not provide any non-dairy milk or "butter" at all (for cereals, tea and toast). Also, no non-dairy yoghurts provided. Very expensive for what we did actually have.

Lovely and welcoming pub

Lovely pub and a perfect location. Very welcoming, tea, coffee and water were provided in the room, and the pub food was delicious. Overall, highly recommend. A minor comment, it was warm overnight so a thinner duvet would have been valuable.

An all round excellent haven

We had a most enjoyable 3-night stay at The Helyar Arms. Staff and the proprietors were most welcoming and helpful, the accommodation was clean, spacious and comfortable; and the food was excellent. The garden was immaculate and a joy to sit there with a drink. Prices were reasonable and and overall gave really good value for money. Strongly recommend.

A really good choice

Lovely stay at the Helyar Arms. Friendly welcoming staff and the food was excellent. Really good breakfast. Dog friendly and set in a very pretty village. Unexpected stay while coordinating a stressful house move and yet I still felt like I’d had a nice break away ! Will definitely be back.
