Stayed here for two nights & dinner with a Groupon voucher. Originally booked a double room, however rang the day before we arrived to change to a twin room and this was catered for without problem! As mentioned in other reviews, it could do with a lick of fresh paint here and there, but we found it quite charming. The... More

We stayed in the bungalow. It's unusual because it is detached and tucked away but it suited us nicely. We had some nice weather so were able to sit on our own patio and enjoy the weather. A little dated in side and perhaps a spring clean wouldn't go amiss but generally....great.

We stayed at Lavender House on a KGB deal but we were treated as any other full paying guest. This is a family run hotel & everyone went out of their way to make each guest feel welcome. The room was a reasonable size & had everything you needed, including a hair dryer & tea-making facilities. There was also a... More

This was a gift from the in laws. The room was lovely and comfortable. The only thing i would say is that the rooms could do with a little updating. Had a better nights sleep than I did in my own bed! Good selection of food for breakfast and dinner. Service was excellent, they couldn't do enough to help and... More

We stayed here on a Groupon deal, and the deal was good value. This is a good base for touring Dartmoor and East Devon, but the hotel misses the target in important ways. The building and rooms have a tired air about them. Breakfast was very good, with lots of choice. Restaurant and food was good, but one meal was... More

Visited for a Wedding which was fantastic. Bedroom a bit of a disappointment and not worth price - generally tired, handles broken on chest of drawers, top of bedside table unstable, revolting collection of dirt, wotsits etc under bed. Saw other bedrooms which were smart and in good order. Great breakfast and friendly efficient staff.

We stayed here as part of a week travelling around Devon, a regular haunt for us. This hotel was booked using a groupon deal a few months ago and our expectations were modest. Our actual experience was very positive. A true family run hotel environment with very friendly service. The initial impact is that the hotel is a little 'worn'... More

This hotel is spacious and well cared for. It is family run and has a lovely home from home atmosphere. I stayed with a friend for a couple of days and the staff could not have done more for us. They gave us a wine tasting so that we could select the wine we liked best and made me my... More

We stayed here for our anniversary having held our wedding reception here 3 years ago. We could not fault the place then, nor now. The staff were excellent, made us feel very welcome and we were well looked after. The food was incredibly good with good portion sizes.
