About

Welcome to The Hood Arms, a historic 17th‑century coaching inn perched in the charming village of Kilve on the edge of the Quantock Hills. With a roaring fire, flagstone floors and timber‑beam ceilings, the inn offers nine stylish rooms ranging from super‑king to dog‑friendly doubles, all thoughtfully furnished for comfort. Guests can savour locally sourced dishes across the main dining room, bar, and the family‑friendly beer garden that’s open in good weather. The inn’s pastoral setting, proximity to the South West Coast Path, and easy access to the Jurassic Coast make it a perfect base for walkers, history enthusiasts and families alike.
