"From start to finish this was an amazing stay. Jon contacted us before we arrived to chat about arrangements for our son, and when we arrived we received such a warm welcome Jon and the team made an effort to learn our names and doted on our 3 year old who was very spoilt. Dinner was incredible, the cocktails were amazing and the mulled cider was just perfect next to the lit fire. The room was very clean and comfortable and the bath in the room was really cute! Breakfast was hands down the best smashed avocado I’ve EVER had. The team at breakfast were so lovely and friendly. Jon has built an impeccable team for the pub they’re all super friendly, chatty , attentive and honestly the whole place is brilliant. The homemade biscuits were gorgeous! We will definitely be back thank you for such a great stay!"

"Our first visit to The George Inn at Donyatt, we've drove by it time's going to other places and it always looks such a nice place. We decided to have lunchtime meal there to celebrate our anniversary and weren't disappointed, beamed ceilings, log burner and brick fireplace, farm tools and pictures on the walls cosy and oldie worldy with friendly locals just how we like our pubs. The staff and owner were really friendly, polite and chatted to us as if we locals from the village, the waitresses were smartly dressed, polite attentive always smiling, cheerful, charming and chatty. Even the chef nodded and smiled to us the couple of times he walked through and the bar and table areas were spotlessly clean. Our meals starters and mains were absolutely fantastic and amazing as was the presentation, they were hot good amounts of food with tender succulent meats and vegetables and the mashed potatoes were creamy smooth and light and have never had better. There's a good selection of beers and I had local ale which was amazing, clear, cool with a nice head and tasted like nectar. We will definitely be coming back soon and we can definitely recommend this pub, restaurant and hotel to family, friends, neighbours and anyone. A very big well done and thank you to the owners, all the staff especially the chef, please please please keep this pub the way it is, it's an absolute treasure and gem of a place to find. YOU ALL MADE OUR ANNIVERSARY VERY SPECIAL Especially in these times when a majority of local village pubs are closing down and being turned into houses or flats, we must all support our local village pubs like The George Inn."

"My family and I were quite disappointed with our lunch and the lack of customer service at The Windwhistle Inn. The food was extremely overpriced, with burnt and bland dishes. We were told there would be a carvery, but it wasn’t available. The customer service was lacking; there were no smiles or polite greetings, and no one bothered to ask us about our meal, which, frankly, was terrible! Although we were informed there would be a 25-minute wait, our food didn't arrive until over an hour later, and we received no updates or apologies during that time. In fact, other tables that arrived after us received their meals before we did. From what I’ve seen in other reviews, this pub has definitely changed ownership because the food didn't resemble the photos at all! This place has so much potential; it’s truly a shame and very disappointing."

"Stopped here for a brunch. Enjoyed a delicious fried breakfast in a cosy setting. Was quite busy and seemed a bit slow at first, but then very friendly with second waitress good fun and no real wait with the food. Chocolate and mocca very good indeed and the cakes looked great, though we didn't try them. Only preference would be buttered toast included in breakfast. Otherwise excellent."

"Left with mixed feelings about our evening out. The positives were that the chef took a lot of trouble to make a lovely Waldorf salad for one of our group who is vegetarian and gluten free. The mushroom dish was also very good and the chips were great. The fish and chips were disappointing as the amount of actual fish under the batter was minuscule. Our order was mixed up so we were initially presented with venison burgers instead of the vegetarian burgers we had ordered. Also the fish and chips were forgotten and we had to ask what had happened to that order. The young waitress was very attentive, polite and helpful however the lady in charge was not particularly friendly or welcoming. So overall rather a mixed experience a shame because most of food was nice."
