Wonderful and imaginative breakfast menu with many options. Lovely setting on a hillside overlooking the valley and just a few minutes from the sand dunes and beaches of the estuary.
Very warm welcome from our hosts and can thoroughly recommend to others.

Barton Instow Guest house is a jewel in the crown. A lovely old converted farmhouse nestled in the Instow countryside but only a short walk to the beautiful beach front. The bed was clean and comfortable, towels dressing gowns and toiletries are also provided. Cold milk was available each evening for a morning cuppa in your room before an amazing breakfast choice of delicious food. Packed lunches are available at an additional small cost if you are walking or going to the beach. Caroline and Colin are a lovely couple who run their guest house with pride.

Just had 3 nights at Instow Barton. If I could given them 11 I would. Great brekkies catering for all inc my veggie husband who loved home made granola, cakes, pastries plus full breakfast. Good clean spacious rooms. -Well placed for quick 10 min walk to Instow where we had fresh fish/ mussels on 2 nights. Honestly a generous couple who cater for absolutely everything. Good nights sleep as quiet with scenic views. best cup of tea I’ve ever had - I think it’s the Devon water can’t believe it makes such a difference. Was allowed to bring our dog who is pretty well behaved. Lovely rest, sunbathing at Saunton and revisiting old haunts. Thankyou both, a great stay.

Caroline and Colin were very friendly and welcoming hosts. They are passionate about the B&B and nothing was too much trouble. Great value for money as well. Super clean room and public areas. Breakfast was superb. Our table was loaded with juices, home made granola, fresh fruit, yoghurt, freshly baked pastries in addition to the personalised choice of hot dishes. This hearty breakfast would leave no-one hungry. The room was spotless with luxury bed and bedding. Tea, coffee and plenty of fresh milk were available in the room. Decaf and a choice of non-dairy milk was readily provided on request. In addition, fresh home made cake appeared every afternoon in the room. We also made use of their packed lunch offer (Extra cost) and this was perfect for a long day out and about. I highly recommend Instow Barton and will be returning as soon as I can.

Super friendly and welcoming host, a comfortable and attractive room, home-made cake every afternoon and wonderful breakfasts. The B&B is an easy walk to a stunning beach and various restaurants. We ate out at The Glorious Oyster and The Boat House - both recommended but we preferred the former for its relaxed, beachy vibe and quality of the dishes.

What a delightful experience it was to stay at Instow Barton B&B and be hosted by Colin & Caroline. Happy, bubbly and a very friendly reception on our arrival. Nothing was too much trouble and they went out of there way to make us feel welcome in there home. Very generous size bedroom, large barthoom and cake was in our room everyday!
Breakfast menu was extensive and varied. Quality of food was of a 5 Star standard and presented in a timely and professional manner. I’d go as far as to say that we were being hosted by a couple that were

This was by far the best stay during our 7 day hike along the south west coast path from Minehead to Westward Ho!. I would give it a 5.5 out of 5, if I only could.
Caroline was a wonderful host.
Everything was well thought through and we felt very welcome.
