| Flock to the Arundell Arms; there are so few places like it left. Personally run for the past 45 years by charming Anne Voss-Bark, it offers extensive fishing on the Tamar, its tributeries and a beginners' lake, plus a warmly welcoming atmosphere, pretty, comfortable, up-to-date bedrooms and wonderfully fresh, locally sourced food in a beautiful dining room. A perfect West Country base for everyone, not just fishing and shooting parties. |

THEY SAY: People come to the Arundell Arms to fish and shoot and go riding, to walk, play golf, go bird watching, and to enjoy some of the loveliest country in England. The hotel, an old coaching inn on a site which dates back to Saxon times, is in a valley of five rivers, close to the uplands of Dartmoor. Not far away are the wonderful surfing beaches of the north Cornish coast, the ruins of Tintagel Castle, and the ancient fishing villages of Boscastle and Port Isaac where you can hire boats or pick your own fresh lobsters from their cages in the fish market.
This is old England, miles away from civilisation, where buzzards float effortlessly in the updrafts of air from woods and hills, where kingfishers and herons haunt rivers, where you may see an otter or hear the strange eerie cry of a fox. At night you may even find a badger waddling ahead of you down one of the country lanes. This is a place where people come to relax, to get away from it all, to enjoy true Devon hospitality in warmth and comfort.
