Super clean rooms. Comfortable beds. Convenient location.
Pros:

The location was very convenient as we were visiting Exeter University. The rooms were very clean and spacious. The toiletries were very nice.

Cons:

We happened to be visiting during an unusually hot spell. Despite the fan in the room it was very hot and uncomfortable to sleep. Air conditioning would be a welcome addition.

Excellent
Pros:

Room was fantastic, well decorated, clean, modern and the bed was very comfy. Breakfast was great and the staff were very friendly. Beautiful pub with a thatched roof, accommodation is a separate modern building. Plenty of parking. Very close to Exeter city.

Cons:

We visited during a heatwave and discovered our room did not have air conditioning, however having all three Velux style windows was enough to cool the room overnight.

Comfortable, convenient and unexpectedly stylish
Pros:

The room was beautifully decorated with a really high attention to detail. The bathroom with rainfall shower and a separate bath was a real bonus. Pub was lovely with great food and ambience.

Fabulous Stay
Pros:

Everything! Venue is lovely, our room was super, breakfast was excellent, staff were so friendly and helpful - why can’t everywhere be so nice?! Totally recommend / we will stay here again.

Cons:

Property - no issues at all - but so people know…

If you need a taxi remember costs are from Exeter not the Ley Arms so a 10 minute x round trip cost is eye watering. So plan to drive anywhere that isn’t at the Ley Arms.
