Plussat: Location, quiet, host was very helpful and knowledgeable regarding things to see and places to visit. Warm and very hospitable. Lovely breakfast. Overall a wonderful place to stay.

Plussat: I cannot rate this accommodation highly enough! We wanted somewhere close to the Royal Marines Commando Training Centre at Lympstone to attend a passing out parade and this was perfect, literally 2 minutes away. The rooms are a lovely size, nice and warm and very clean - the beds are really comfortable too! Tim was an exceptional host, very friendly, well organized and accommodating, the breakfast was first class too.

Plussat: Great location, comfortable, light, bright room, great host.

Miinukset: Nothing at all

Plussat: Accomm in a charming thatched cottage - with extensive garden(s) for quiet walks on a warm evening, and a great English breakfast offering. Sue & Ken are experienced and competent hosts.

Plussat: Breakfast was excellent on both days and Garden was perfect for a morning stroll.

Miinukset: No decaff coffee in room.

Plussat: We had a lovely stay over Easter. Our room was spotlessly clean, and we loved all the little extra thoughtful touches such as fruit in our room and a lovely surprise Easter Sunday when we came to have our breakfast and found a chocolate Easter bunny waiting for us! The setting is beautiful and we enjoyed several walks around the peaceful grounds. The hosts were friendly and helped make our stay very enjoyable.

Miinukset: na

Plussat: Such a pretty place, welcoming touch of a cream tea sitting in the garden. The breakfast was very good with a variety for all tastes. The bed was really comfy. All in all it was a great place to stay.

Miinukset: There is actually nothing that I didn’t like.

Plussat: Room was very nicely furnished with lovely en suite very comfortable bed had some very nice touches that you would only find in atop hotels , the owner,s were very friendly serving excellent breakfast well worth the money

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The property was very clean and spacious set in a lovely rural environment.

Plussat: Fabulous location, meals, and service. Perfect B&B!! Sue and Ken the perfect hosts. Thanks.

Plussat: Good breakfast, very picturesque thatched cottage, good room and facilities with attention to detail, but above all else, run by two very nice people!! We would definitely stay there again.

Miinukset: Nothing, the booking met our requirements perfectly!

Plussat: Beautiful building. Obviously very expensive to maintain, so costs passed on to guests.

Miinukset: Property was lovely, it was the whole experience that was ‘fair’. Perhaps because we were on a cheap deal, we weren’t given what the full price guests were given? We did, however, pay the same price for our food and drinks and they certainly didn’t live up to the standard of the property. Central London prices in the heart of Devon, without the same quality of food and drinks. We could have ‘complained’ to the management in order to improve our next visit. We will not be returning to Bovey Castle. There are plenty other excellent hotels available.

Plussat: Great location the staff are lovely and as the hotel knew it was my husband’s birthday, special little touches we’re really lovely, the food is brilliant , really relaxed atmosphere, facilities are brilliant, will definitely be back, especially this time of year when xmas is so close.

Plussat: The staff were excellent. And overall the stay was fabulous. Excellent food.

Miinukset: However we didn’t get a lot of sleep due to uncomfortable beds which was a bit of a dampener on our stay

Plussat: Lovely location for a stay in Dartmoor and for visiting Exeter, Exmouth etc. Beautiful surroundings, stunning public rooms. Everything you could want in the room which was kept very clean and tidy. Valet service which took the hassle out of parking the car. The staff were all very helpful and the service was excellent.

Miinukset: The vegetarian breakfast was a bit on the mean side with just half a tomato, one mushroom and one sausage. Did not realise breakfast was extra which cost us £120 for the three days stay. The drinks including wines were very expensive. There was a service charge added to everything the accommodation, drinks and all meals and although it stated on the food menus that the service charge was discretionary it was just added to our bill for the accommodation etc.

Plussat: The location is phenomenal and the restaurant staff were wonderful.

Miinukset: Our shower was a low level tray. This over flowed when we used it upon arrival. It was reported only to learn the following day with it flooding the bathroom with dirty water that nothing was done about it. Also the fire alarm went off and continued to ri g for about 15 mind.

Plussat: Scenery! Fantastic charming castle! Nice decor! Comfy seats! Helpful staff particularly the head concierge! Fabulous fine dining experience!

Miinukset: Pillows were particularly small for the size of the bed Size of bed 2 small doubles pushed together! Which separated whilst laying down! 2 vodkas in the bar cost £34 (&nobody asked if we wanted a single! Getting the bill service charges were added (which we knew nothing about!

Plussat: The room was superb

Miinukset: Walls very thin and no car park

Plussat: The room was quirky and spacious, with ample room to spread out and relax.

Miinukset: They finished taking food orders at 8 pm, so sadly went to bed on a bag of pork scratchings! Instead of an award winning pie. Offsite parking - although there were ample parking spaces in the community car park 3 minutes walk away.

Plussat: Good breakfast friendly staff very obliging. Located well for our needs. Decent beers to

Miinukset: N/A

Plussat: Food in the pub below was excellent

Plussat: Great little pub, very friendly atmosphere being enjoyed by locals and people travelling alike. Room was perfectly clean, tidy and spacious. Could not want for more especially given the price - excellent value for money and the food was great too. Ample free parking across the square.

Miinukset: Nothing at this price!

Plussat: Welcoming & friendly proprietors, our room was clean as well as large & we had a delicious bar meal as well as delicious full English breakfast all for a good price

Plussat: Friendly owners, nice pub down stairs.

Plussat: The Breakfast

Miinukset: Sharing bathroom facilities with four contractors!!

Plussat: The Silverton Inn is in a charming village 15 minutes drive from Exeter, the last mile is a single track road. It is not ensuite and the breakfast was very basic. The people are quite friendly and it's quiet.

Plussat: The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The food was very good.

Miinukset: Being in a room above the bar with the windows open it was very noisy until after midnight.

Plussat: The hotel was situated perfectly for our requirements.

Plussat: The hotel is close to Exeter airport and very modern, rooms and dining area in good shape, showers are clearly all new and bathrooms very functional

Miinukset: Walk to hire car park with bags is too long, but have since found out the staff can call a transfer bus!

Plussat: Warm welcome. Comfortable, spacious room. Very clean. Breakfast plentiful and varied and well managed.

Miinukset: The only thing I would change are the pillows but only because I’m personally not a fan of small square pillows.

Plussat: Very impressed, would not hesitate to use your hotel again.

Plussat: Greta location to get into Exeter or drive further down to Cornwall and easy access back towards London

Miinukset: The pillows are uncomfortable, lumpy and result in a stiff neck

Plussat: Relaxed friendly atmosphere. Enjoyed the mulled wine

Miinukset: No fried eggs!!

Plussat: Staff were great

Miinukset: Good really needs to be worked on. Considering there is no other place to eat for miles the offering was shocking especially for veggies. No air con in the gym so was a bit warm.

Plussat: Quick efficient check in check out and response about getting a shuttle bus from the airport

Miinukset: My room was a bit cold and seemed unable to turn the temperature up

Plussat: Very helpful staff and very clean and modern facilities

Miinukset: Nothing very nice and great value for money

Plussat: Lovely interior, facilities, and complimentary port.

Miinukset: Couldn't control temperature in bedroom

Plussat: Lovely decoration, comfortable room

Miinukset: Was very noisy in the morning as the cleaning cupboard was directly next door to us. Hard to contact staff about payment. Called twice and left my number and haven’t heard back four days later. Small amount of black mould around seal of shower. Leaking tap. Sheet had a stain on... was on top of the sheet so we didn’t mind. The facilities weren’t clear regarding if we could use the coffee maker or not. Towels smelt a bit damp/ musky

Plussat: Beautiful rooms, very clean and comfortable with lovely extra touches of cookies and a glass of port - very welcoming. Evening meal and breakfast superb with all members of staff being so helpful and pleasant with Scott the Manager even helping to carry all our Christmas shopping bags to our car. Would definitely stay here again.

Miinukset: Absolutely nothing to dislike

Plussat: Really large comfy beds : port and cookies was a nice touch x

Plussat: The staff at reception and in the adjoining pub were friendly. The room was comfortable and clean with some great little touches such as a complementary small decanter of port. The bathroom had excellent fixtures. The bed was comfortable. The location is right downtown, just a short walk to the Cathedral, restaurants and shopping.

Miinukset: The hotel is on a charming narrow street, which can be a little challenging for a tourist driver to drive up to. By driving 100 yards through an intersection, however, you can solve this by going into one of two parking garages. I know that’s not much of a criticism, but I felt the need to put something in the criticism box.

Plussat: Ideal location, walking distance to shops & city centre Fabulous room, lavishly furnished & beautifully decorated Great coffee machine in the room, mini bar with fresh milk Lovely touches, e.g. Free mini bottle of port & complimentary hand made biscuits Fantastic bathroom & shower

Miinukset: Only one criticism. It's a pub that has live music on a Friday night, which was quite loud and went on til 11pm We were advised this in advance, but weren't expecting it to be quite so loud. Probably not an issue for younger travellers that either watch the band or stay up late, but we're normally in bed asleep by 10ish

Plussat: Interior, comfortable bed, amenities, breakfast

Miinukset: None

Plussat: Very friendly and comfortable. Linked to the next door restaurant.

Plussat: Very professional reception lady. The bed was very comfortable.

Miinukset: Very minor issue with the shower gel dispensers...too stiff to operate and we are by no means we.

Plussat: Great location and warm comfy clean rooms.

Miinukset: Breakfast is not included. Noise from the adjoining pub Xmas party disco!

Plussat: Hotel

Miinukset: The food available at the pub next door was of poor quality and lacked choice. I would expect a lot more when attached to quality hotel

Plussat: Nice decor

Miinukset: Bath was chipped and rusty in a couple of small places

Plussat: What a beautiful property and exceptionally well-appointed room! This is a gem of a hotel, a world away from the budget/mid price chains. Even though I didn't have a river view his time, the beds are sooo comfortable, and every amenity is provided and sparkling with it. Very friendly staff, warm welcome and farewell. I will be back!

Plussat: All really nice even showed me to my room

Plussat: Very welcoming friendly owner and staff. We were very late arriving, due to a delayed ferry sailing to Plymouth and arrived at 11.00pm but still received a welcome! The breakfast was magnificent and included excellent porridge. We were so disappointed to miss the booked dinner the previous evening. Judging by the breakfast and reading their menu - we will return and ensure that we arrive in time to enjoy the Devon treats on offer!! We also missed exploring historic Ottery due to heavy rain. This comfortable hotel would make a perfect base for several days of touring locally. On this occasion, we used the hotel as an overnight stop - it is ideal, being a very short detour from the A30. Good secluded parking. Attractive riverside location...trees, a garden and a neighbouring park.

Miinukset: Our room was very pretty ( with an amazingingly comfortable 4 poster bed ) but not spacious. However for a brief overnight stop it was fine. The hotel was a bit tricky to find late at night in driving rain!!

Plussat: The bed was very comfortable.

Plussat: Good location clean comfortable and friendly.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: It was homely. The breakfast was excellent.

Plussat: Wonderful breakfast

Miinukset: Everything was as expected

Plussat: Super staff. Great rooms. Great food.

Miinukset: Lounge was a bit pokey, not what I expected for a lounge bar, but everything else more than made up for it.

Plussat: I really enjoyed the food, pleasant staff, comfortable room and perfect location.

Plussat: Very good breakfast!

Miinukset: No parking but that's Topsham so you get used to it!

Plussat: Fabulous hotel with a great locals bar and restaurant with chefs specials. Comfortable and clean room with all facilities.

Miinukset: No parking but we did arrive on the Topsham Christmas light switch on!

Plussat: Excellent food, polite and professional staff

Miinukset: Dogs in the eating areas; one on the table, another licking owners mouth.

Plussat: Really super room. Roomy clean and boutique hotel style. Very impressed

Miinukset: Friendly welcoming staff. Nothing was too much trouble

Plussat: Very comfortable, helpful stuff and smooth check in like the bed very much as well.

Plussat: Brilliant location in the middle of the village. Staff were all helpful and friendly. The beer is excellent. The breakfast was good, although I didn't have the cooked so I can't comment on that.

Plussat: The bed was very comfortable and it was nice to be in the main building . The room was lovely and warm as was the bathroom with good quality towels although more toiletries would be nice e.g. moisturiser. Excellent tea and coffee facility in room. Good service and friendly. Excellent location in the centre of Topsham. Interesting history to the old building. Well kept up.

Miinukset: The drinks in the bar are more expensive than other venues( pubs ) in the town. At lunchtime we had sandwiches .... the ham sandwich was very good ... nice thick ham. However, the ‘ mature cheddar cheese with pickle ‘ was very poor and at £5.50 was overpriced for what turned out to be a very sparse sprinkling of grated cheddar cheese rather than a slice... grated might have been OK had there been a fair amount for the price. For dinner we had the roast beef. We had this at 8.15pm and service is until 9.00 pm. The roast potatoes were poor .... greasy and not at all crispy or fluffy. The cauliflower cheese had definitely seen better days .... presumably earlier in the day... by now it was mushy and a bit grey . Yorkshire pudding good, gravy excellent , service very good.

Plussat: Very friendly staff went the extra mile to please everyone. Rooms were very clean. Would recommend anyone to stay there.

Plussat: Nice friendly staff,clean room.

Miinukset: The area where the breakfast items were set up for breakfast is far to small,it was very crowded. Also they were constantly running out of cooked items and other bits and pieces,i had to make several trips to keep checking if items had been restocked.

Plussat: Ideally located for Westpoint arena close to M5 and a short bus ride into city centre

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Easy to park and find.

Miinukset: There are two hanging lights opposite the bar and I hit my head on them. They should be removed even staff agreed.

Plussat: The staff were fantastic, room was a great size. breakfast was very well run , always replenishing food and tidying, I haven't been to a budget hotel that the breakfast was as well run this, so attentive. well done to the team and the lady running it.

Miinukset: bathroom a little dated and i would have liked a bath not shower/wet room.
