Watch your head in the door way if 6' plus
The Duke of York is a proper British local pub in a building that's a good few hundred years old.
The staff and the locals are friendly and welcoming and the food is great.
Dont get upset that there's no lift to the upper level or at the absence of Aircon.
Just go with the flow

One night stay
Landlord and staff very friendly and accommodating. Food very good. Building in need of updating and attention. Not suitable if you go to bed early as noise from bar can keep you awake. Bed very comfortable. Good breakfast

One night stay on route to Plymouth
Quite an olde worlde type hotel. Very narrow country roads to get there, basic but quite comfortable, spaceous room, quite at night, plenty accessories. Fantastic food though, evening meals and breakfast, and staff extremely pleasant and helpfull.

A very nice one night stay at this 15th century pub. Staff all nice, food excellent and considering only 22 houses in village the pub was very busy - obviously due to the quality of food on offer. Room was nice and comfortable - would recommend.
