Where do I start. I booked this hotel for my partners birthday and valentines day present based on…read morethe" mature couples " reviews and the awards it has won and it lived up to its hype. This is a family owned and run hotel 10 mins from the beach. All rooms are individual and well appointed. We arrived cold and hungry and was greeted by our host who booked us in and got us settled with the offer of a hot drink when we got into the lounge which sported comfortable seating small bar and widescreen telly. Due to the snow we were the only couple in on the first night as 4 people had cancelled. Our room was a small suite with a well appointed bathroom, lounge and bedroom with tea and coffee facilities with biscuits, comp toiletries, towels flannels and yes Thick toweling bath robes and chocolates. The hotel was spotless and well maintained. On our first morning we experienced one of the best breakfasts I had eaten in a long time as it is all cooked to order. before the main event we had a choice of 11 cereals, fruit segments, fruit juice and choice of breads.This set us up for the day ahead. free parking is available It deserves all the awards it has got and add to this the Man of the House grows some fantastic orchids and gave my partner a 10 minute lesson on where she was going wrong and what to do. Yes we will be going back sooner rather than later and it is real value for money and you get what it says on the tin So we hope you enjoy as much as we did..

You will also find a laundrette , play area , swimming pool ,shop and a clubhouse that has a bar. The park is clean and tidy and the staff are very friendly and helpful. You will find great entertainment for the whole family , the last time I was there we were unable to take a buggy into the clubhouse but I don`t know if that has changed. The shop is well stocked and is quite resonable or you can leave the park and walk down the hill where you will find a variety of shops at good prices , just be warned though you then have to walk back up the hill! I really recommend this park their holiday prices have always been cheap I just hope that now they have been taken over by a big company that they won`t hike up the prices.

They were really accommodating and the grounds were just gorgeous! The hotel is located right on the sea in the town of Sidmouth. It was a perfect beachy location and the town in super cute with bunting everywhere. The beaches are rocky instead of sandy which is completely foreign to me but I guess that's how the beaches are there. My observation however was that they definitely prefer an "older"crowd which tended to be crabby and openly snarky, which made me feel like I was staying in the world's nicest nursing home hahaha.

Absolute fantastic stay. The hotel is in a great position right on the sea front. If you have a…read morebedroom with a sea view that would definitely be a bonus. The hotel takes pride in it's service, you have to wear a jacket and tie to the evening meals, not used to that, but it was great fun. All the staff are helpful and friendly. Rooms are nice and have everything you need for a good stay. They have good facilities as well including an indoor and outdoor pool and spa. Overall the stay was great and I think we may be going back next year.

My first trip to the UK and the first hotel I stayed in. I didn't know what to think at first. The…read morestaff was friendly and accommodating but coming from the US, the home of huge hotels this was very downsized and seemed old in comparison. But it quickly became one of my favorites. We had a room overlooking the street which I liked a lot. And breakfast was awesome, they go all out. Since it was my first trip there I had the full English breakfast and if you do that you really are good until evening. You could also modify the breakfast to suit your taste. Very clean hotel as well. ALSO this hotel is only about a 7 minute walk to the train station, very convenient. If I return to Exeter I WILL stay here.

I couldn't believe the wonderful location of my room in this hotel. My room looked out onto a…read morewooden platform (where I could have sat if it had ever stopped raining) and then over rolling hills and the countryside. The room was small but lovely, the bed was very comfortable and the tv had a decent number of channels for the short time I would be spending in the room. The location of the hotel itself is really good, near the Exeter St Davids station and not too far from the city centre. Breakfast was ok..I don't really like English breakfasts so I had to ask for certain things to be left off which they didn't always get right. The worst thing about my stay was the light coloured curtains. It was impossible to avoid the early morning sun pouring into the room and waking me up before 7am (fine on any other day, but not on holiday). The staff were friendly and If I come back to Exeter I might well stay here again.

[3.5 Stars] Stayed…read moreat this cute hotel tucked away in the corners of Tavi in early February. The rooms are extremely cute and charmingly appointed in antique finishes, fine soaps, novels, robes and slippers, a box of teas and shortbread cookies (packaged, not fresh), and a bottle of water from their true roman well. The staff greet you warmly at the door and seem to remember you like an old friend. The downstairs looks like an old tavern with plush arm chairs and couches. The hotel has a great restaurant for dinner with Michelin like entrees. (Will try to post photos of my meal later). The breakfast offerings were a little sparse, but pleasant. They always had a table with my room number waiting for me. The service was very doting, but inconsistent unfortunately. When I had asked about travel information for the area, they sat me in a huge antique chair and brought me a huge basket of travel books and old pamphlets. They even pulled books from their downstairs shelves and insisted I keep them during my stay. The night manager (or owner), offered to have horse riding reservations made for me at ranches they had relationships with and have me driven anywhere I wanted to go in the area. He told me to just talk to the staff in the morning, but when morning rolled around, the staff didn't seem to be in on all the promises nor did they know anything about nearby stables. Was fine. They helped make other calls for me and get me pricing, but a little odd. The day staff was definitely not as helpful nor knowledgable. There was a slight musty smell in my room. When I asked if all the rooms were like that, I was really impressed with their response. They moved my things immediately to a much larger much nicer room. The next room unfortunately was a bit musty too, but enjoyed the upgrade enough, that it didn't really matter. They have wi-fi at a cost. It unfortunately seemed a little spotty. Had to ask them to bounce their router a couple times, but they always accommodated as quickly as they could. Not perfect, but enjoyable enough. Would definitely consider staying here again.

A very relaxed, quality feeling full of anticipation of being completely spoilt! The menu looked delightful but was about £30 a head as I recall which is, I think, quite expensive for a non-special occasion. Highly regarded by several people who's opinion I would trust and on the list for the next special occasion. The chefs often win prizes in national competitions and the accommodation is, I believe, very stylish although I don;t have first hand experience of it.
