The Old Inn
Since 1845
Great Food & Real Ales
Our historic pub was originally built in the 14th century, and re-built in its current form in 1874 after a fire destroyed the building.
A good Pub In The South Hams
The Old Inn is a dog and child friendly establishment ... as long as they are with well-behaved parents/owners.
The pub is lucky to have a large garden and patio with extra seating for those long hot Devon summer days. Along with raised planters, we have also recently introduced a large fence and gated the patio to help keep dogs and children safe.
There are a selection of local and West Country beers with Otter Ales taking a permanent position at the bar.
The Old Inn has its own mascot in the form of their performing dog SADIE and CARA, and they entertain the young and old with a bar mat catching trick.
