Lovely pub in a beautiful part of South Devon right next to the river with a friendly team behind the bar. The room was warm and cosy with a great breakfast. Evening dining was also good and the pizza was amazing!

4/10 Poor

Flaky paint generally tired ,an old English country pub very pretty from the outside in a scenic spot .Inside remnants of old drinking establishment smell of old beer and cigarette smoke with a general stickiness to most surfaces .staff were pleasant ,pizza was ok but stake was mostly fat . The bed had a spring poking out or it and the sofa bed had a small piece of foam for a mattress

A night away

Location good, outside spaces as in by the river, the open sided barn and the front of the pub very nice. Breakfast adequate, staff very friendly.
Amanda, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Beautiful pub opposite a babbling brook. So pretty. Made welcome from the start. Lovely double room with all you need. Great breakfast that sets you up for the day and ate there each of our four evenings. Food very good. Would highly recommend so long as you are happy to drive down very narrow country lanes and reversing back every so often as they are one vehicle roads. Part of being in the country as is being woken by the bleating sheep, quaking ducks and flying geese. Loved it.
Valerie, 4-night trip
