Very friendly welcome and lovely spacious room. A thermos of fresh milk was ready for us every evening on the reception counter for tea/ coffee in our room the next morning. Breakfast was delicious with excellent selection of fruit, yoghurt, granola and choice of cooked breakfast. The location is excellent too. A short 10 minute walk and you're on the beach at Instow. Overall a very enjoyable and relaxing stay.

Wonderful and imaginative breakfast menu with many options. Lovely setting on a hillside overlooking the valley and just a few minutes from the sand dunes and beaches of the estuary. Very warm welcome from our hosts and can thoroughly recommend to others.

Super friendly and welcoming host, a comfortable and attractive room, home-made cake every afternoon and wonderful breakfasts. The B&B is an easy walk to a stunning beach and various restaurants. We ate out at The Glorious Oyster and The Boat House - both recommended but we preferred the former for its relaxed, beachy vibe and quality of the dishes.

Barton Instow Guest house is a jewel in the crown. A lovely old converted farmhouse nestled in the Instow countryside but only a short walk to the beautiful beach front. The bed was clean and comfortable, towels dressing gowns and toiletries are also provided. Cold milk was available each evening for a morning cuppa in your room before an amazing breakfast choice of delicious food. Packed lunches are available at an additional small cost if you are walking or going to the beach. Caroline and Colin are a lovely couple who run their guest house with pride.

Lovely room overlooking the garden and countryside and sea with a very comfortable bed, delicious breakfast with homemade goodies, could not have been better. We certainly would not hesitate to book again. Thank you, Caroline and Colin, for looking after us so well and for all your very funny stories about your horses, dogs and cat 😄
