Following a family funeral in Axminster we had afternoon tea for fifty people at the Ridgeway hotel on 5th April 2013. The staff were very friendly and attentive , we had small sandwiches , scones with jam and cream , homemade cakes of all sorts , each time one was finishing another one appeared ! The food was all made... More

Had a meal here for about 40 of us. The place itself is very nice. Lovely building and dining room. The staff were friendly and attentive but the meal was very average. Admittedly they were catering for a large party but my main course was overcooked and the fish my wife had was bland

My partner took me here for a surprise night away. The location is lovely, so peaceful and pretty. It has parking which is a big bonus! The room was beautiful, quite spacious, very clean and tidy. The food was delicious, they were very busy with a birthday party and all the other tables were full, but our food came out... More

The converted chapel makes an interesting and pleasant place to stay for a couple of nights. I would not recommend staying a whole week here - no private outdoor space although the hotel's gardens are available for you to use, as is their bar and lounge area.

We were shown to our table 20 mins after the time we had booked for and a further 15 mins later our starters arrived. 45 mins later a waitress appeared to say that the tickets in the kitchen had...

Everything, from the bespoke craftsman furniture to the amazing locally sourced menu make your stay feel homely & relaxing.

I must state that we only ate here ! We are lucky enough to live close enough so as to not need to use the accomodation The restaurant is one of the few within a large radius that offers good homecooked food reliably and consistantly.Both the landlord,Kevin and his partner in business and life,Carole, work hard to ensure good quality...
