Our stay was up to its usual excellent standard. Highly recommend!
Pros:

Breakfast was excellent … fantastic choices and everything was beyond expectation. Pam was her usual welcoming presence in the dining room as always.

Cons:

My personal preference would have been to have toasted sourdough rather than toasted sliced bread at breakfast. This is not a criticism of the hotel, just a suggestion!

Could not believe this isn't a 4 star!
Pros:

We were surprised to find such a large room. It was very light and airy and the fan proved extremely useful in the hot weather. The staff gave great recommendations for eating out. The breakfasts were ideal and you didn't have to wait ages for them, similarly at the bar for drinks in the evening.

Cons:

Perhaps more of a choice of cereals...granola of fruit and fibre perhaps but very little else.

Great base for exploring North Devon and Exmoor.
Pros:

Great breakfast, friendly staff

Cons:

It’s an old building so the floorboards creaked, room hot but there was a fan and I stayed during a heatwave! Had to have the window open and could hear people walking through the town after the pub closed although the England game was showing late! Probably quieter normally.

Matched our expectations and we were satisfied. We can recommend it
Pros:

Great room. Great staff. Good breakfast

Cons:

Location not the best for Devon, but we knew that in advance and the price reflected that.
A fridge in the room would have been nice
