Food & Accommodation
The country inns and pubs of South West England are the perfect partner to your days in the countryside. Each of our trails leads to a warm welcome, a good meal, and a room where you’ll feel at home.
We seek the individual and authentic, places loved by locals. And we seek each one to give you a consistent standard throughout your trip. Many of our country inns are award winning hosts in their own right (long gone are the old stereotypes!).
From centuries old pubs, to coaching inns and Georgian town houses, they ooze history and character too.
Food & Drink
After a day in the countryside there is nothing more satisfying than enjoying great food & drink served in the relaxed setting of a country inn.
When we seek places for our guests to stay we look for places where you can enjoy creative menus of freshly prepared foods, and a similar commitment to be good at what they do. Many of our inns draw on the local area and farms for inspiration and food with provenance. Behind the bar, real English ales, ciders and an interesting wine list.
And not forgetting a freshly prepared breakfast each day to set you up. For lunches, on each of your trails we will give you advice on where you can get a fresh lunch or enjoy refreshments on route.
Vegetarian & vegan options are generally available, and dietary intolerances can be catered for. If you have any special requests simply let your itinerary consultant know.
Our Country Inns & Hotels
What do we look for as a host for our Foot Trails guests?
We like local, authentic, relaxed, special places to stay that are loved by the local community and visitors alike. Located in small English villages, a little off the beaten path, you can soak up village life as you explore, a true experience of being in rural England.
A mix of inns with restaurants and small hotels most of them have just a handful of bedrooms making them small and intimate. We look for good sized bedrooms with your creature comforts ensured, en-suite facilities, and with good fresh food to enjoy on site in the evenings.
“The inns chosen by Foot Trails are charming, well-appointed and very comfortable. The food at each inn was without exception superb, and the staff were friendly and helpful.”
