"Peaceful, rural retreat"

9.0

Location, quiet, spaciousness

The breakfast is very much geared towards those who want a traditional cooked breakfast. I'd like the option of yoghurt, fresh fruit and quality cereals e.g muesli and granola.

"An ideal quiet retreat with an affable host, but not far from many excellent places via a range of transportation option"

10.0

Quiet and secluded but not far from Topsham on foot/bicycle and public transport options to Exmouth, Exeter and beyond. Tim is a kind and helpful host who will give as much or as little help as you want. Good breakfasts.

Nothing not to like. If you enjoy B&Bs you will like it here. The guest rooms do not have views of the estuary, but you can use Tim’s “viewing hut” in his field opposite.

"So please we stayed here. Thanks for making us so welcome."

9.0

Lovely and sensible to ask for our choice of breakfast the night before. All very well cooked, timely, nothing seemed to be too much trouble. Loved the patio doors onto the garden with our own space to sit outside. And the lounge/dining area at our dispsoal too.

There was nothing we did not like.

"Superb"

9.0

Hidden away at the end of the village, but a great location for accessing the Exe estuary cycle path and the Avocet rail line. Just a short walk along the cycle path to Topsham, and 90 minutes on foot to Exmouth and only 10 minutes walk from a really nice pub with a good restaurant. Nice freshly cooked breakfasts, and the porridge was great. Good to have a guests sitting room we could sit in with our friends staying in the room next door, and space each in the garden outside as well.

Nothing much really. Some people might be put off by the adjacent railway line, but there are only two trains an hour and you soon switch off to a few seconds noise as they go by (they stop overnight well)

"excellent situation for a short break within easy access to Exeter and the lovely walking /cycling tracks along the"

8.0

ideally situated especially for walking or cycling and easy access to the GWR train facilities. The owner. Tim, was very approachable , helpful and knowledgeable .

there was little not to like however it would benefit from some upgrading at very little expense eg bedding , softer towels and tweaking of the breakfast menu.
