Lovely atmospheric place to stay and enjoy Topsham.
Pros:

Breakfast was lovely lots of choice. Pub was nice and staff very friendly. I loved that the rooms were outside.

Cons:

It would have been good to have a small fridge in the room to keep drinks cold. Also a small safe would be useful even for a small charge.
