Great hotel to explore the Devon Area.

A perfect hotel, as a base to explore the local area, or if on route to Cornwall. Certainly value for money, and would use again if I needed to. Though there are very little facilities in the local area (Walking Distance) for families, but ideal for somewhere to sleep after days out.

Our room was clean and lovely and warm. Free parking directly next to the hotel was great especially as we arrived late in the evening. The receptionist was polite and friendly. Main downside for us was the noise of the motorway as we are light sleepers and our room was at the front but we did eventually get to sleep. Would suggest good ear plugs! The restaurant was still closed when we went but as we had rung ahead we had brought breakfast with us. Would stay again as the price was very reasonable for one night.
