The excellent freshly cooked breakfasts were splendid. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Although we only used the B&B to sleep as we were attending a wedding elsewhere the accommodation was good clean and comfortable
No shelves around the washbasin for toothbrush etc. Shower although nice and hot needs better pressure.

The location was great as we had a day manned at the Steam Railway. The pub is situated alongside the river so the views were great.
The breakfast was great but I do feel they were having staff issues as on both days they had to call in cooking staff.
We were looking forward to eating at the pub in the evening as having stayed there before and enjoyed very good food but were disappointed to be told they were not able to provide food in the evening. There were a number of other people checking in that day and they all asked about evening food.
We paid for a room upgrade but what we got was nothing like what was expected. We stayed in the Mallard room which had a double bed and a small shower but this was more suited to a single person. If this was an upgrade I would hate to see the standard room. I should have taken photos.

Breakfast had plenty of alternatives to please everyone; self serve juices and cereals either a variety of cooked courses.
The unavoidable late arrival. Staying here for the first time in the dark and rain made seeing the car park entrance difficult. It will not be a problem next time, because there will be a next time.

Lovely spot by the river, walking distance to Buckfast Abbey, which was the purpose of our stop over.
Nothing.
Maybe a lick of paint on bedroom furniture? Shower mat, mirror near socket for drying hair and a packet of biscuits in room would have been nice.

Staff very friendly and helpful river view was delightful. Wine choice was good. Rooms were clean and plenty of hot water.
Steep slope to carry luggage down and then up again at end of stay, would not be any good if you have mobility issues.

Staff so helpful and cooked my breakfast as early as they could to facilitate my timetable for work.
Quiet room and lovely view over the river.
Breakfast was good, but started far too late. If checkout stayed as 7-10am, breakfast should start before 8!
Bed was far too soft and lumpy.

The staff were great, food was very good and there was a wide variety of beers available. Setting on the river was idyllic.
The rooms were a little dated and the bathrooms were small.
