Wayfarer Inn

Used to really love this place, but recently, it has lost its spark. The once warm and homely atmosphere has been ruined by menu changes. Myself and many others have all agreed that the good old pub grub was what we came for. I tried to give it a chance, but was massively disappointed by increased prices and decreased portions. Really really hope to see the once bubbly, lively and traditional seaside pub that we all love eventually return.

Loved the meal and atmosphere of the wayfarer . All the staff were lovely. Marley an Tom are waiters were awesome and very polite. The food was excellent. Great place to go to celebrate a family day out. We will be returning later in the year. Many thanks to all at the wayfarer.

Great pub! We love a good roasts and these are the best and always generous in vegetables. We were welcomed in by Marley who served us and was very attentive, joyful and happy to help. We love this pub and will be back for a roast soon! The best pub in Instow, the beer garden is worth sitting in for sun and a pint.

The Wayfarer has a great location but the level of cleanliness really lets it down. The shower room had very bad black mildew with a horrible lingering smell. We were shown two rooms and both had the same issue. The windowframes had also not been cleaned properly and were also growing mildew. We raised our concerns to the management at checkout and with follow-up communication and they simply blamed the age of the building and didn’t acknowledge that some deep cleaning (or just some normal cleaning in the cases of the windows) would have made a big difference. It was a real shame because otherwise the room was large, furniture good, view nice, location great. We stayed at 6 other properties as we were walking the coast trail. The others were spotless (and in fact less expensive). The Wayfarer let us down and lets itself down.

We stayed for three nights in two different rooms. The rooms, shower, etc were nice and clean. I would also recommend the breakfast. The personnel was great and very kind. I don't place 5 stars because the matresses and the wifi were not good at all.

This is a fantastic pub in the beautiful estuary village of Instow . The pub serves several real ales, all beautifully kept. The Sunday roast is magnificent but make sure that you book. Our family has been there on many occasions. The staff are very attentive and professional and Debbie and Ellie made our visit very special. Chris , the landlord often cooks the roast himself and takes a special pride in it. The menu is extensive and everything is excellent . Highly recommended.
