The Masons Arms

Impeccable service, a cracking menu and perfect ingredients: The Masons Arms is a haven of French and British classics. Chef-owner Mark Dodson has a total command of the classical repertoire and uses it to create inspired, wonderfully full-flavoured delights. The pub was once three cottages, the oldest dating back to the 13th century and the restaurant sits in an extension with a delightfully random pseudo-classical fresco on the ceiling. As you feast on a menu of the highest pedigree, you gaze out of the window at the rolling edge of Exmoor. Class, style, beauty - and a hint of wildness. You'll find those here in spades.
