“The riverside setting here is truly captivating, with rooms framing stunning views across the Dart estuary that invite you to linger. Hosts Daniele and Peter seem to have mastered the art of hospitality, making guests feel genuinely welcomed and cared for, while Daniele's cooking, particularly the breakfasts and an occasional Sri Lankan curry, is a distinct highlight.”
