An old fashioned tea room /Bed and breakfast. A wonderful old building with thick walls and beams . Friendly owners and a single room with facilities next door. En-suites are available. A great full English complete with homemade marmalade. I will return.

18th c cob house with original features and furniture and fittings to match. Pleasant hosts who also offer cream teams. Lovey breakfast and choice of options. Unfortunately our room number 2 was adjacent main rd and heavy traffic was noticeable right under the window. Shower was unsuitable as water pressure low it dribbles out. Very old and tired decor which although in sitting with the propery was not our liking and in our opinion needs updating as very worn. Good value for money that said.

Lovely old property. Very clean. Owners very friendly. Breakfast very good. Lovely looking garden. Little niggles! Shower didn't work very well. Our room was next to the road and we were aware of the traffic. Would go there again.

Nice little guest house near Sidmouth
Very pkeasnt stay. Room and shiwer was fairly basic but comfortable. Dog friendly location with a lovely garden where we enjoyed a superb cream tea. In the evening we asked if we could drink our own wine in the garden. The owners respobded in a positive way even iffering glasses. Recommended.

Worth visiting for the cream teas alone!
The cream teas alone were good enough to justify a 5 star review. The breakfast simply reinforced this.

Great Stay
Lovely stay. It was clean, quirky and friendly. We had the double room, with sink but not en-suite. The room felt a little small but the bed was really comfortable and we had everything we needed for an overnight stay. The breakfast was excellent - full English, good ingredients cooked cleanly. We would happily book again if staying in the area, definitely recommended.

Southern Cross guest house
The guest house is set off from tge main road in a quaint location. A convenient location for my stop. You first walk in to the garden of the Tea Room, which is a beautiful secret garden. A real surprise. The hosts are welcoming and friendly and the rooms rustic and comfy. The cream tea was delicious as was the cooked breakfast in the morning. A highly recommended stay

Perfect B&B and perfect hosts
The B and b was gorgeous, such a lovely old building and the owners were so friendly and welcoming. My partner and I both loved the character of the building. The tearoom was a bonus and we both said that that was the best cream tea we had ever had. Sitting outside in the garden was just heavenly. The location was great too and with a frequent bus service into Sidmouth and Exeter it was just perfect. We have both said that we will definitely stay there again.

We only stayed one night but we would have stayed all week because it was a very nice place,very clean and we weren’t expecting a cooked breakfast in the morning but it was all included which was so reasonable for the price and was just lovely. We had the best cream tea ever in Devon sat in the tranquil garden it’s a must and would recommend this hotel anytime.thanks Richard and Katja Howell
