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)

The situation was good for travelling around in the day and then you could park there for the night to be able to walk for a meal or a drink. The bed was comfortable and the host Tim didn’t intrude and was full of helpful advise.

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.

The room was large, bright and quiet with a very comfortable bed. Tim was a friendly, generous and very helpful host, who did everything he could to make my stay over the Christmas period a pleasant one. Also enjoyed the walk down to the pub and the railway station along the narrow Devon country roads!

Access road is very narrow for a large car.

Right by the footpaths to the nature reserves, Topsham etc. Very clean and comfortable. Lounge available for guests to use. Great to see no plastic used too.

Found the train noise difficult first night but after that got used to it

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.

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.
