This grade 2 listed pub was the first pub in Devon to be listed in the Michelin Pub Guide and has now been voted Devons
Best Country Pub for 2007 by readers of Devon Life magazine.
The CHI at Marldon was originally built around 1400 and gave accommodation to the artisans working on the church,
after which it became the meeting house for the church congregation and finally the Village Inn.
It was rebuilt in the early eighteenth century and has the most stunning listed Georgian windows.
Some of the original glass still remains, despite being next to the village cricket pitch – where “sixes” are now outlawed !
From the pub there are many beautiful country walks including the famous John Musgrave Heritage Trail which heads through Marldon past the pub and through the grounds of Berry Pomerory Castle on its way to Totnes.
Ideally situated between Berry Pomerory Castle and Compton Castle the pub makes a perfect venue to relax and
enjoy the hospitality after visiting one of these historic buildings.
