    It was a little pricey, and parking was a bit tricky. We had to move the car to avoid the 3-6pm restrictions. But overall it is hard to find any faults!

    Exceptional quality accommodation. Fantastic staff. Beautiful room with well designed decor. Breakfast was very decent!

    DESERVEDLY THE BEST PLACE TO STAY IN DARTMOUTH

    Nothing, we loved it.

    This is a quirky property has lots of fascinating history which they have retained in the Inn and blended with modern facilities in the bedrooms. It is within easy walking distance (4 minutes) of the town but is very quiet as it faces Coronation Park and the road outside isn’t noisy. The friendly landlady gives you a comprehensive briefing on arrival (including helpful advice on parking). We stayed in No1, came with absolutely everything you could want and more, it was spotlessly clean. Breakfast is exceptional in both quality and the size of portions! We were served by a delightful cheerful young lady who delivered the best breakfasts I’ve eaten for years (you’ll not eat until teatime !). Freshly made fresh fruit salad with yoghurt, the full (& I mean full!) English with top quality local ingredients (the bacon and black pudding were exceptional) then toasted thick bread with various jams and marmalade, pots of tea and coffee - you won’t find a better breakfast in the country. Room has a minibar too and Dyson air fan. We loved our stay …I’m only worried that by writing such a glowing commendation that it will be booked up and we will never get back in! WELL DONE JUDE AND THE TEAM!

    The room is cleverly designed but not spacious and was not cheap.

    Location is excellent, right near the water and opposite a park. There is some traffic noise but its very quiet at night. There is no parking but we were able to park locally fairly easily. The room was very well appointed and the owners had thought of everything. The welcome was very warm, and the breakfast very good.

    I can’t honestly find fault with anything.

    The attention to detail is amazing. Everything we needed was in the room, which was spotlessly clean. There were lots of nice little touches like proper milk in the fridge, face cloths and the towels were expertly folded. And breakfast AMAZING! All the staff we met were polite and friendly, they could not do enough for us.

    Bar closing at 6pm, we weren't informed prior to booking, lack of car parking (which we were aware of) but wasnt a problem as it was early in the season and a Sunday.

    Lovely staff, lovely room and great location. Disappointed the bar closed at 6, but it was a Sunday and it gave us a reason to explore the town more. We were only there one night.
