En route to Torquay we felt the need to move off the A303. Using our Satnav to find the nearest pub it led us along single track roads to a treasure of a pub. A very warm welcome on a chilly winters day. We tried to find a sunny spot just as the sun went in and ended up being... More

Having been impressed by the hospitality and style of this old coaching inn in the picture postcard village of Stockland I felt duty bound to recommend it here. We understand the new owners have only been operating for just over a week, in fact we were the first guests to register under their management. The room was very comfortable, the... More

Now we are hopeful that the new owners/managers succeed in restoring the pub to its former glory. On my recent visit the pub was quiet but the... More

This is a real Gem! The owners and staff were typically 'Devon' friendly! Helpful but not in your face fussing around. The food was excellent, I had the steak and ale pie and it was huge! I needed some extra gravy to finish it off which was forthcoming with no problem. My wife is a fussy eater and the Phil... More

Lovely family run Pub and B&B. We had a spacious room and were given a warm welcome. We enjoyed good quality food in a pleasant dining atmosphere served by friendly staff. My husband sustained a sporting injury during our stay and the hospital visit dictated a 1am return when we were greeted by Phil, the landlord, who was waiting to... More
