It's what makes Devon so welcoming

Could not wish for more. Lovely village, perfect old world setting and just a few miles from the main road. An historic pub that matches it's promise in every way. Very friendly staff and welcoming locals. Nice choices at breakfast too.

Liked: Staff & service
This is a period building, it has its restrictions what can be changed to the building, as it quite poss a listed building. Low beams in the Bar etc. Very authentic. Food brilliant. Bar atmosphere great. Hosts ideal company. Unfortunately the carpet up the stairs & the rooms really need some TLC. The rooms also need some £ spent on them to look a bit more comfortable. That said the rooms & Hotel were clean etc. Just a mention this place loves dogs.

Family meet up

Have stayed before while meeting up with family. Quirky rooms (nothing level) - to be expected in a property of this age - but very comfortable. Extremely hospitable and accommodating host - breakfasts - some of the best we've had. Parking fine if you're fit and well - might be more difficult if mobility impaired - also steep stairs to bedrooms. Would definitely stay again.

Exeter Inn, Modbury

Excellent hosts. Nothing was too much trouble for them and went out of their way to allow seven extra people to dine with us, even though we hadn't booked in for a meal. Food was great and thoroughly enjoyed by all.
