Excellent location. Fabulous view of the River. Clean comfortable dog friendly room.

The Leaping Salmon is located right in the middle of the village of Horrabridge, overlooking the river. Convenient for access to Dartmoor, Tavistock and Plymouth. There was a King sized bed (very comfortable) a large walk in shower and breakfast was delicious.

Though we had booked 5 nights bed and breakfast (Thurs-Tues) on arrival we were told no breakfast would be provided on Mon & Tues as the premises (restaurant & bar) was only open Thurs to Sun. When we questioned this we were told it was on the website. No mention of limited opening was mentioned when we booked (via Booking.com). There was no wardrobe in the room, only some coat hooks for hanging. The room was not serviced during our stay so tea, coffee and milk sachets were not replenished nor was the bin emptied or the floor swept ( as we had a dog with us, this would have been desirable). Toiletries in the bathroom were basic. This room was advertised as a de lux room but this rating was not warranted. On the Monday morning (Easter bank holiday) there was a major burst water main a few miles away which meant no water for a large area around Plymouth/Tavistock. There were no staff on the premises, which was closed apart from the 3 B&B rooms, no-one contacted us to see if we were managing or needed anything. Not impressed particularly as we discovered the water supply was not reinstated for almost 48 hours (by which time we had left). We were lucky we had family in the local area (who were also without water) who were able to get bottled water. We felt a bit uncomfortable being left at premises which were closed for days with only an emergency contact number.

Location, bed and friendly staff.

No comfortable chair and mirror to allow female pampering before venturing out for the day.

As a family of four with 2 teens and a big dog, it's difficult to find somewhere not over priced and a big enough space for us all. We stayed in a very spacious family room. Bathroom had a big drench shower and heated towel rail. Plenty of space for our dog's big bed! Ben and the other staff were very friendly and attentive, also accommodating to our needs. Breakfast was included and fantastic choice. We ate at the pub on the second night and the food really was fantastic and a good varied menu. Thanks for a great stay!

beautifully decorated room with comfortable beds and lovely view of the river. Quiet location and tasty breakfast.

The breakfast was freshly cooked and excellent.
