Pros:

I loved my room, very clean and fantastic view of the Devon countryside . The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Dinner was delicious.

Cons:

Not having any Wifi in my bedroom…. I heard other guests saying the same. I needed this for work… so I needed privacy. I so loved this hotel but I would have loved to return but not having internet is a problem.

Not happy customer
Pros:

The views were beautiful

Cons:

No WiFi in the bedroom which was not advertised before booking as we would not of stayed here.

The bed was very uncomfortable, 2 single pushed together which kept separating and very tired mattress which was so uncomfortable.

Because we had 2 dogs we were put in a “dog friendly room” which was tired and basic, compared to the standard of the other rooms.

Disappointed
Pros:

The place was magnificent.
We also had dinner. The food was excellent.
We had booked two rooms. It was quite expensive but seemed good value for our money

Cons:

After we left we had a phone call telling us that a shampoo and a soap bottle were missing and that we had to pay for them. We did not take them. They were probably missing when we arrived but that is the policy of the establishment to accuse your guests of stealing soap! Found that quite petty and was clearly disappointed because our stay was very good.

A comfortable stay in a great location but with a disappointing evening meal.
Pros:

The location and the ambience of the hotel.

Cons:

We were disappointed in the standard of cooking, as we'd been expecting higher quality, closer to Miachelin starred.

Lovely spot but unprepared for a heat wave.
Pros:

Beautiful setting and garden and delicious restaurant!

Cons:

We were there in a heat wave and rooms were very hot and poorly ventilated. Fan was too weak to help generate cross ventilation. Rooms did cool off by later evening. Though likely costly, hotel might consider portable room air conditioning units that vent through a window. Another inn we stayed in during the heat wave did this and rooms were sufficiently cooled and pleasant.

A very peaceful and lovely hotel with very friendly and helpful staff.
Pros:

The setting was lovely and peaceful. The staff were all very helpful and friendly. The room was very comfortable and clean.

Cons:

The hotel was very good. The only criticism I would have is that better signage from the road indicating the turn off would be helpful as the current sign is just too small.
