Decent menu and good pub classics (steak and ale pie/ham egg and chips/steak & chips). Social activities (bingo when we went) and they have games. The room was comfy and the breakfast in the morning was decent.

I really enjoyed a lunch yesterday with a friend.
It is an unpretentious and characterful pub.
The land lady was charming and we enjoyed the food.

I have visited the phelips many times over the years and it remains one of my favourite spots! The team is great, friendly and welcoming owners and dog-friendly too.
Lovely menu that caters for vegetarians, vegans and coeliacs really well. The pub itself is really well maintained, with lovely atmosphere, board games, beer garden, cosy fire, and clean bathrooms.
I?ve also stayed in the accommodation before and had a lovely experience there too.

Nice 'country' pub. Warm welcome, cosy settee and chair by a lovely open fire.
Food good but could do better with the filling of Baguettes, bit stingey.
Landlady, friendly and welcoming. Would recommend, right next door to NT house.

What a perfect little find right next to Montacute House. Perfect place to stay for an overnight get away or short break.
Really clean rooms and very comfy beds above the bar/restaurant in the old inn. Some memorabilia of when Sense and Sensibility Sensibility was filmed in the village and amazing food!! The Pheilps Arms famous pie is incredible! Great value and delicious food. Breakfast was great too and your hosts (plus Trix the dog) are very welcoming and accommodating. I'd certainly stay again if in the area.
Rooms: Cozy, clean and comfortable. The decor is a little dated but that doesn't matter at all as the beds are super comfy!
Nearby activities: Montacute House is a good place to spend a few hours if you like history.
Food and drinks: Amazing food!!!!! Honestly some of the best pub food I've had in years!! The pie is amazing!!

Great place. We stayed one night, the attention was great the room was good, they offer food, good breakfast and it is easy to find parking. We found parking even arriving late in a bank Holiday and it is free
