"A great stopover while travelling from Sussex to Devon."

10.0

Stayed there before, picturesque sunset views. A genial hostess who engages with you and willing to give time.For me a really good steak pie that was one of the best while looking over the countryside. The ranch style accommodation has covered verandas in front of the bedroom which makes it a pleasure to sit out and have an evening drink should the weather be suitable.

The room was big as was the bathroom, which was equipped with a long bath and shower. Piping hot water and an amazing view from the restaurant. Will definitely be back.

We enjoyed our stay at The Flying Fish and were made to feel very welcome by the obliging staff. The room and ensuite were spacious and quiet. We enjoyed a delicious evening meal in the conservatory with views over the countryside.

All was good.
