"Great spot for a traditional English experience. The staff are fantastic and helpful. I recommend the breakfast option; it has a great hot menu, and you'll get much more than just the buffet table. Rooms are clean and have all the essentials. The area is very central. It certainly appeals to an older demographic. If you're fine with that, this is a wonderful experience. Well maintained and managed."

"A great stop over on the way to Cornwall
A nice welcome on arrival and we found our booking upgraded to a larger room.
A good selection of pies for dinner and fresh pastries and coffee for breakfast.
Fresh coffee and cafetière in the room was a nice touch."

"Our stay at the Lorna Doone B&B could not have been better! We loved everything about our experience in this beautiful house with fantastically friendly hosts. Great room, a delicious breakfast and wonderful people who made us feel like royalty and family at the same time. Certainly one of the best places that we have ever had the luck to experience."

"The staff were friendly and helpful. The place was very clean. Breakfast was very good. I was disappointed as it was expensive and the little extras were missing, such as shower/bath gel on the wall were too high for use in the bath."

A two night stay to attend niece's wedding, excellent location with a plentiful public car park opposite. Our room was clean and tidy, well appointed with quality fixtures and fittings. A very nice friendly welcome on arrival and throughout our stay. Quality of breakfast was first class and very tasty with a good range to suit all tastes. Would stay again and would highly recommend if you are looking to stay in the area. Village had good amenities.

A really good value B&B for the area. About 20 mins from Oakhampton in a tiny village. 2 good walks (4 and 8km for hikers), and excellent beer, wines and food in the evening. Breakfast was top class. Will come again.

Excellent attention to detail. The Landlord and his team were extremely friendly, helpful and nothing was too much bother. Free parking was an added bonus.

Our first excursion after COVID lockdown so a little anxious but everything was taken care of. The hosts did an excellent job of following the guidelines so we felt relaxed. Food was from a limited menu but understandable given the circumstances and was very good.

We stayed at the Hotel for four nights bed and breakfast. The room was spotless and top notch. Bathroom was very clean and high quality. We had dinner on our last night, using our ten percentage voucher. The standard of food and service was first class and made for an enjoyable conclusion to our stay.

Room was well furnished and had everything we needed including a bottle opener, wine glass, even a hot water bottle! Bed was comfy and there was a really useful folder of info in the room, the owner had included a few suggested walks around the property which was great and we did one of them just to stretch our legs.
Ample parking, and the property was very well kept, no issues with noise or anything from the farm we were attached to.
Loved the fact the owner offered proper milk for the rooms...
