Amazing Inn with Fantastic Host
Pros:

We had a fantastic stay at the Crown Inn. The pub is well located for access to the Eden project, Cornish coast as well as Dartmoor. The rooms were stylish, clean and well equipped, and Tim gave us some great recommendations for a lovely day trip exploring the local hidden gems. Everything we wanted and more!

It was a lovely place to stay and everyone was friendly and welcoming. Would happily stay again
Pros:

Continental Breakfast was included. There was a good range of food available and you could have something cooked at a reduced price. Lovely to see so much local produce available. Owner and staff were very friendly and helpful. Loved the fact that fresh milk was delivered to my room every morning. Bed was very comfortable , room was warm and cosy. Lovely view of the garden.

Cons:

My bedroom was a garden room, in an outbuilding dating back to the 12th Century and it was lovely. Only a slight problem was the entrance door to my room tended to stick and it took a bit of pulling and shoving to open and close. Not a major issues. Shower pressure could be a bit low, but there was a plenty of hot water.
