The Hood Arms
The Hood Arms is an historic 17th Century coaching inn situated in the village of Kilve on the edge of the Quantock Hills, complete with a roaring fire, flagstone floors and beams. The Hood is a family run inn steeped in history, on the route of the Coleridge Way and close to the Jurassic coastline and beaches of Somerset. Our location is halfway between Bridgwater and Minehead and very accessible for Taunton, or as a base to explore Exmoor.
We are open for Lunch, Dinner & Sunday Roast at the following times: Tuesday - Saturday from 12pm to 2pm and 6pm to 9pm. Sunday from 12pm to 3pm. Children are always welcome & the bar/snug areas are dog friendly. We cherish a good family meal and Sunday Roasts are just that. Enjoy a selection of roast meats with all the trimmings. All our food is locally sourced, freshly cooked and lovingly prepared!
Accommodation - we have nine very comfortable and stylish rooms. Our accommodation is superbly appointed and features a number of super-king, king, double, twin and dog friendly rooms.

| South West Bed & Breakfast | This is a real hidden gem. The Hood was not on my radar, but it went well beyond my expectations. Not only is the place excellent, but the owner’s passion also shone through the building and the food. I have not stopped recommending it to people I know. Outstanding and memorable and a real star for the South West. |

| South West Dining Pub | "This was a real find and is a hidden gem. The food was superb on all levels. Perfectly cooked, delicious, and so well presented on the plate. The chef was giving a lot of attention to detail. I could not recommend the Hood more and I have no idea how it was not on my radar. One of the best meals I’ve had for quite a while." |
