Friendly staff that let us keep our bikes safe in an out building. Great reasonably priced food, very comfortable and clean accommodation. Maybe the best breakfast that I have ever... read more had! Highly recommended.

  Found the Half Moon on our cycling tour. Wow what a lovely place. The Half Moon is a totally charming inn in a beautiful little village. Bedrooms bright and fresh.... read more Beds super comfortable. Staff lovely and food delicious. (Including veggie option). Really impressed.
Would recommend it to anyone. Loved our stay. (And they even locked our bikes up to keep them safe.

  As a woman travelling on my own it is very important for me to feel safe and at home away from home. This inn not only made me feel comfortable... read more and safe, it also provided a wonderful community atmosphere where locals commune for a pint and lively conversation. Pub food was very good and there was a decent choice of wines and ales. A lovely wood-burning fireplace kept the room warm and cosy and the smell was intoxicating. I have nothing but good things to say about this inn that was built in the 16th century and has been well-maintained and though not necessarily offering the best Wi-Fi service, it does offer clean and spacious surroundings. This is the kind of inn you read about in magazines and the kind of place that makes you feel at home. I can't say enough about the staff, they were just wonderful to me and made sure I had everything I could need. The inn is situated in the town of Sheepwash that has a very small population of only 300 but is very picturesque and has won awards for its beauty. I can't say I would recommend this inn or town for a young family, however, I highly recommend it for anyone middle-aged or older.

  Cycling to C2C, stayed overnight - lovely location, rooms very clean comfortable and great size with lots of character. Staff very friendly and helpful, good food, lovely pub and... read more bar working very well during Covid. Would thoroughly recommend.

  2 night stay to meet up with an old friend from outside the UK . Absolutely gorgeous place ! The staff are all so friendly & cannot do enough for... read more you . The food is delicious! The rooms and the communal areas of the whole place are exceptionally clean and well looked after. Our room , spacious, huge bed , plenty of drawers, cupboards, wardrobe space etc . Love the whole caboodle ! Thank you to all the staff for your care and attention. Beautiful, quiet little village. Carol & Scott .

  Superb warm welcome. Due to a 4 hour drive I missed lunch by 10 mins. They VERY kindly made me some anyway (best ham cheese & onion sarnie EVER). Wonderful... read more beautiful clean pub full of charachter. The staff are so sweet & friendly. I stayed in Room 11, in a little house out the back of the pub. Double room, up 1 flight of stairs (FYI if you have mobility issues). Bed duvet and pillows amazingly high quality, made for a lovely afternoon snooze. Dinner was amazing (Pork belly) quality and cost overall outstanding. 1 little shop/post office over the road for essentials. I will be back !

  Loved the hotel. The service was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was also excellent. It was a little difficult to find (we didn't have a Satnav)... read more and the signs were not so easy to see after dark.

  My riding partner booked the Half Moon for an over-night stop having previously stayed here with his wife. We arrived late afternoon and first impressions were very encouraging as this... read more impressive building dominates the square. The main entrance opens straight in to the bar that is furnished with simple but good quality tables and chairs. In one corner was a lovely log stove that gave a welcome warmth and glow to the room. And here you can eat rather than in the adjoining large more formal dining room, but that is also used for breakfast. Anna completed the arrival and registration procedures in a pleasant and professional manner and throughout our short stay made us most welcome. Our rooms 4 & 5 although above the bar and overlooked the square were quiet, furnished, decorated and equipped (complementary refreshments, linen & bathroom accessories) all to a very acceptable standard. The food and menu deserves an additional mention. A very good choice and sensibly priced. Local ingredients and home cooked we chose the pie followed by a crumble dessert. For breakfast there was an excellent choice of soft fruits and my scrambled egg and salmon was a prodigious serving. Finally the room rate that included breakfast represented real value for money. I have every intention of returning in the New Year with my wife. Wonderful experience.

  We spent two nights at the Inn whilst visiting friends. It was our first venture out after lockdown and have to say they take COVID very seriously and we both... read more felt reassured. The room was lovely with beams and an en-suite with a powerful shower. Breakfast was one of the best we’ve had although the service was particularly slow. We ate in the bar one evening and the meal was faultless - beautifully cooked steak and generous portions. Will certainly return.

  Staying in beautiful Highhampton, Devon. Checked the visitors comments book at our cottage and lots of people recommended the Half Moon Inn for excellent meals and service. Arrived today (08/08/20)... read more at 12.55pm and asked for a table for 2. The Bar woman said she is only serving sandwiches, and that cooked meals were from 6.00pm. EVEN though there were several people sitting outside eating a cooked meal and the board outside said food served all day. Won't go back there again and will not recommend this establishment to anyone. Hugh disappointment.

  Firstly I want to say that the food was excellent and so much better than usual pub food. It was presented beautifully and tasted fresh and full of flavour. There... read more was nothing that I could criticise at all. However the service was extremely poor. We had our dog with us so we’re in the bar area which was no problem at all to us but as we had been put in the rod room it felt that we were just forgotten about. We were there over 2 hours having had just 2 courses. We had to go and find someone to order more drinks, order puddings, get the bill. It really did feel as if we were ‘out of sight, out of mind. The rod room did just feel like a bit of a back office. As I said the food was beautiful but we probably wouldn’t return due to the service. More

  Stayed here with our family Aug 2020, place was extremely clean - they take COVID very seriously and have a thorough sanitation policy throughout pub and b&b. Nice breakfast, comfy... read more beds. Would recommend
