Staff were friendly, cheerful and helpful.
Breakfast was good with fresh ingredients.
Food in the restaurant was good.
Room was clean.
We were plagued with midges in our room at the time that we stayed (not the hotel's fault - apparently this happens for a couple of weeks each year because of the close proximity of the Mill stream) so had to keep our windows closed and when we mentioned this to a member of staff, they gave us a can of fly spray to use in the room, which helped. They also loaned us a fan as we couldn't have the windows open.
The patio was a lovely place to sit with a drink from the bar and benefitted from the evening sunlight.
We arrived in the afternoon and would have liked to have had a pot of tea and slice of cake in the garden, or maybe a Devon cream tea, but unfortunately neither were available, only a drink from the bar. So we would recommend that the hotel offer this as we're sure that other guests would like that option too as it was a bit early to be drinking alcohol from the bar.
All in all, we had a lovely stay and would recommend the hotel.
