Had a lovely 1 night stay with our work team. Lovely Inn, fantastic Pub with locally sourced drinks & an excellent breakfast! The staff were also so friendly which is always a winner! As well as a super cool pub parrot named captain! Would recommend to anyone passing by.
We had a great stay at The New Inn, the room was clean and spacious and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was also very nice. We will definitely stay here again. :)
Excellent pub in a beautiful hamlet that feels like stepping back in time. Excellent food, wonderful service with bags of atmosphere. It's unbeatable.
Went for lunch with family, landlord was extremely friendly and took time to talk with the group multiple times and the food was wonderful.
Myself and my now wife have been to the new inn many of times overer the last few years we Evan had our first date there and now we take our son along with us. We are always greeted by friendly staff weather its for a family meal or a quick pint on the way home after a Long day. Excellent home cooked food. There's always a hello from captain
Recently had a family gathering here. Mark and Teresa went above and beyond in every way to make sure the day was perfect. The food was exquisite, incredibly tasty and beautifully presented. We can't thank you enough for all that you did. Would highly recommend.
We stayed at The New Inn for a couple of nights to attend a wedding nearby. The pub is charming, the rooms are spacious, comfortable and clean. We only had breakfast, but it was beautifully cooked and served with a smile. Coleford is a small hamlet and very peaceful. If you are visiting Devon, I recommend you visit the New Inn either to eat, or to stay.
