Horrible landlord in there. Doesn't know how to run a pub. He's rude . Wouldn't recommend to my worst enemy.

Expensive drinks, service poor and bar staff rude. Avoid this place. Hygiene needs to be addressed.

AVOID! Booked to stay here for a night and received a cancellation message an hour before arrival stating I was a no show.. I called to clarify what was going on and they had told me I had booked the night before in error. I went through my records and checked the confirmation email which stated I'd booked the correct night. I also still had the tab open on my phone, which confirmed this. I'd received no further confirmation/communication.Despite sending this to management, they denied it and claimed I'd made an adjustment after booking (room change and night change, no confirmation email to evidence this). Management said they would call back, refused refund and I eventually had to claim back through my bank after being ignored.Manager arrogant-told me I wouldn't get a charge back unless she authorises.. Junior staff very rude when calling also-would avoid! There are lots of lovely places to stay nearby! This is my first time leaving a negative review, but it is well deserved.

Probably one of the worst places I've stayed in! The only reason I stayed there was because I was walking the coast path and it was close to the Starcross ferry.The staff were indifferent, the room was terrible - I could feel the springs in the mattress, the loft hatch was open leaving a gaping hole in the ceiling. The lock latch was falling off the door and the furniture and decor were shabby to say the least. My view from the window was a roof and some scaffolding.The pub no longer does food, so it's a 15 minute walk to cockwood for an evening meal (Anchor Inn highly recommended). Nowhere for breakfast, except for the Spa shop next door who do breakfast baps.The only positives were that it was clean and it was quiet - probably because they had no customers!!!Avoid at all costs.Walkability: It's on the coast path

Not a friendly place to go the staff are just grumpy and not welcoming

We got the ensuite room without a view for £140 for two nights. It's an inn run by a small group of people.The people were really nice, and they lent us some shampoo/conditioner for coloured hair because I forgot to take some with me!However, when I got in the shower we realised that the shampoo/shower gel bottle was empty. My partner ran down and got us some but the bottle was clearly labeled "Dove hand wash", and smells/feels like it too so it's not in a different bottle.The floor as you can see had loads of hair on it so I don't know when it was last hoovered which is a bit gross.When we woke up we realised that the inn didn't do any breakfast/lunch. They didn't serve food until 2pm so advised us to get something from the Spa very near by.The room that we were staying in had no door handle so every time we were closing the door we had to slam the door. Some of the other rooms had a handle I think our one was just broke.One of our keys didn't work - not sure if that was meant for the outer door? It would be helpful if it could be labeled because I had to try the door twice every time which was slightly annoying.The location was brilliant, literally a 3 minute walk (if even) from Starcross train station.It was a 5 minute drive to Powderham castle, however taxis were £35 one way as the they come from Exeter so it was just extortionate. So if you could drive you should probably drive!Overall it was a nice enough stay, lots of niggly bits however the staff were very friendly. It probably just needs a bit of a fix up and more attention to detail though.

Location excellent, room not so much. Bed very uncomfortable all the same it had clean sheets. Asked about evening meals apparently they are having a refurb in the restaurant, maybe the same should be said about the rooms. A little time and effort good make a massive difference to anyone short break experience.

We booked this as restaurant on site to find there was a restaurant with no food .On booking we were not told of the loud musicNo spoon provided with the mugs.Shower gel container in shower was empty.Total lack of customer care.

Just had a one night stay with a friend whilst sorting out some business. Arriving early evening it was apparent that the people who were working there must have been having a bad day. A higher rating would have been easy to obtain by being more welcoming and the room not having so many broken or damaged items (no bathroom door latch not lock, curtains hanging off, broken wardrobe door). The room was clean enough but added to the lack of other basics you would expect from accommodation like this it just let's the place down. If the website photos were replaced with the current condition of the accommodation you might have second thoughts. It's a shame it could be so much better.

Mrs Peggy Abbott is so wonderful to work with. As a first time investor, I wasn?t completely sure of the process but Mrs Peggy Abbott helped me through it all and I made a profit of $6,500 with an investment of $500. He was also extremely helpful in coordinating the withdrawal process. I highly recommend Mrs Peggy Abbott to everyone looking to start up an investment. These are his contact details
