The Belfry at Yarcombe is a converted Victorian School near Honiton in Devon. The guest house is decorated with a slight contemporary flair but keeping all the traditional features and adds a touch of opulence here and there.

There are six guest bedrooms here at The Belfry, each with its own style, character and aspect. One super-king-size, two king-size, two double and one twin-bedded room.

Each of the guest rooms is named after one of the great poets of the nineteenth century, all of whom were writing around the time that The Belfry was planned and built as the village school.

All of the guest rooms have flat-screen televisions, tea/coffee facilities, bottled mineral water and biscuits (with the occasional homemade flapjack). We also provide white waffle-weave bathrobes in the wardrobe for you to wrap up in and of course, the complete works of the poet after whom your room was named may also be found in your room.

Our beds are made with spotless, white 100% cotton sheets, pillowcases and duvet covers and our bathrooms have 100% cotton towels and face flannels (the bath towels are the biggest on the market). The curtains and bed throws are high-quality, as is the tea and coffee, herbals, hot chocolate and malt drinks (these things are important!). Fresh milk and juices are available if you are thirsty and are in the fridge under the stairs, so please do help yourselves.

In 2022, Neil and Sarah-Jane are celebrating having run The Belfry B&B (formally The Belfry Country Hotel and then The Belfry Restaurant & Rooms) for 15 years. This coincides with the opening of the hotel 50 years ago in 1972 and also the laying of the foundation stone for the school 150 years ago in October.

The foundation stone was laid by Lady Eliott Drake, a descendent of Sir Frances Drake who at one time owned much of the village.

The Belfry is ideally situated between Honiton, Taunton and Chard and is only a short distance from the Jurassic Coast.
