“Arundell Arms strikes me as an interesting blend of sporting tradition and updated hospitality, despite some inconsistent experiences reported with its restaurant service. With its extensive private fishing waters and emphasis on local sourcing, the hotel's commitment to its Devon setting feels authentic. It seems like a place best suited for those prioritizing the fishing school and outdoor activities over guaranteed dining perfection.”
