the first night we couldn't get any cold water out of the sink tap so had to go to the bar and buy a bottle of cold water

only quibble was that the drinks were definitely hotel bar prices, a little steep, especially as the food seemed reasonably priced

food was excellent and restaurant and bar service very good despite the covid restrictions in place

there is a bar and restaurant

the after hours bar staff were great and the black pudding at breakfast was to die for!

a great location and the owners and bar staff are amazing, i didn’t want to leave

railway inn was friendly, has a nice bar and plays music the pub is down a side street

area, except music night in bar separate access door from narrow street large-screen tv plenty of tea/ coffee/

the bar below was audible until closing at 12 am

very welcoming and when you arrive back in the evening in a crowded bar you're recognised

the hotel has great bar ambience and value for what you spend

only issue was no bar made for no atmosphere

pleasant bar with sea views

location with glorious views of the seafront from the breakfast and bar areas, presumably some of the rooms too

very nice bar area, could do more to attract an evening get together

bar was inviting and well stocked

to what i needed and make me feel at home, as well as the lovely lady who took care of the bar ud83dude0a a friendly hotel, making you feel at home as soon as you arrive

many thanks to all staff, reception, housekeeping, bar staff, restaurant staff, and management who were particularly helpful

but just far enough back from the road, with a large garden in front; terrace and terrace bar with glorious views; extremely friendly and helpful staff; excellent evening meals and ready at

it is a shame that the bar food is no longer available in the evenings a d only at lunch time

to get served at the bar we had to attract someone’s attention, no coordination

the dinner was outstanding bar not enough grouse in the a la carte menu!!

the grounds, the outdoor pool, the sculptures, the staff, the food, the lovely bar and restaurant and hotel decor, and finally the rose wine from the vineyard - everything was

very small portions for breakfast and bar food.

the young man working the bar was great fun and determined to provide the best bloody mary cocktail he could

warm welcome from reception bar was great good cocktails and friendly staff.

three people working the desk and bar were exceptionally friendly and helpful

the restaurant served delicious meals, and the bar was a cozy spot to relax and enjoy a drink

clean , super friendly staff ! great lounge / bar area

one criticism would be the bar in the function room was very expensive example 1 pint of cider and 250ml glass of wine we were

lovely building and the bar area is very relaxing

good bar with comfortable seating friendly

excellent indian restaurant and an amazing cocktail bar 5 minutes walk

price of a drink in the bar was a little high, would like to see the prices more reasonable.

great night sleep - soft fluffy towels - great shower - parking right outside our room - lovely bar and restaurant - brilliant

fantastic value for money everything on site restaurant bar and hotel

really nice atmosphere downstairs in the bar - warm and welcoming in the heart of

globe is very central and nice and quiet too albeit our room faced onto a garden bar

bar is cosy and food is very good

from the bar to the restaurant and the room all had special touches and their guests comfort was their

lack of table service in the bar for food

having a separate kitchen for tea and coffee was different and works really well

little extras that just make things nice - the little galley kitchen to help your day go

we decided to have the cooked breakfast which is ordered the day before but there is a lovely kitchen area near the bedrooms which you can help yourself to cereals, bread and tea and coffee

they do not have tea/coffee making facilities in the room but they have a kitchen for use by guests fully stocked with nice tea/coffee, breakfast cereals and

i loved the kitchen next door to the bedrooms for tea/coffee etc, i would always prefer not to have to go out

we loved the cosy bar which had a relaxing feel to it

the bar is well stocked and badger ales are my favourite

service, tasteful decor, impressive views and excellent food and bar options

the ambience in the bar and restaurant was very relaxing especially the open fire

the restaurant & bar got unbearably hot a couple of nights as every window was closed and the heat full on

really nice place with atmosphere and a great bar and restaurant - staff great - location ok but a good distance from topsham but there is a bus

i was made welcome at every moment - every new face from the bar/restaurant staff to the housekeeping team

exceptionally friendly staff from reception to bar and restaurant

food in terrace bar was superb

spa area bar area beautician

very nice location, nice rooms and the staff is awesome. bar offers the drinks for a fair price!

only small comment i would add is that the resturant in the evening felt like the snack bar during the day even table cloths would make a difference but apart from that we had an

nice and easy book in food and bar staff were good. room was very comfortable

room and clean and well equipped , restaurant / bar area all good

and very professional staff a big thankyou to all especially val on reception and bar ladies great room great food what else could you ask for fabulous place

the building itself is so historic, yet warm and comfortable, the bar cosy, the drinks and evening meal were superb (and reasonably priced too

the bar closing at 9.45 pm... due to covid

lovely welcoming log burner in the bar which was lovely on a cold wet afternoon

quiet in beautiful location, bar cosy, restaurant lovely, staff super friendly and room comfy and

bar staff were friendly and very efficient

we have to say that the evening meals in the bar are a little overpriced

lovely, i stopped with my two year old and every staff member j met including cleaners and the bar staff were really helpful, offering to get bags from the car and warming up milk in the evening

hot very tasty, even saw the chef making the beer batter for the haddock freshly made from the bar ale

carvery was very busy with external customers so guests were pushed into cramped bar area

should be better staffed on reception and bar area

place is perfect if travelling through easy parking bar and nice simple rooms

decor in the bar was perhaps a bit dated.

was waiting for my lift to arrive in the end they had a problem and the staff let me stay in the bar nearly all day bless them

wasn't a bar as such, but i saw a notice for a mini bar in the hotel, although not in the rooms

good fish and chip bar walkable and small shop

was classed as a hotel but there was no bar and i did not want to go out and was looking forward to having a drink

no criticism but a bar would have been brilliant. but enjoyed the stay regardless

no bar as such

the second day the soap was removed, but no new bar left for us

was fine in and around the bar / reception area but very patchy within the bedroom itself

the bar staff mane fanatic cocktails

setting and a great restaurant and bar area

friendly staff good bar and very good restaurant

and as a single lady traveller, the way i was made to feel welcome throughout the pub - both in bar and restaurant

breakfast was very good (full english) bar staff very friendly ,ideal for winding down after a long drive

bar area could be bigger and a bit cosier, but that's being quite picky, the drink selection is

bar none

staff and the bar gave good wine advice

from the room to the bar and library etc i couldn't have asked for a better stay

room service was so reasonable along with mini bar ect

bar prices are a little expensive the self closers on the doors make the doors slam shut too

was marvellous from your reception staff to your bar staff and also the staff doing the breakfast booking

complimentary vouchers for the hotel bar for a birthday drink each

the breakfast was very well done and the bar where we had a late meal on christmas eve was beautiful along with the food itself, he staff

did not eat whilst there but had a drink in the bar which was pleasant

i liked the fact the bar was open and food was available due to the present situation

bar was great and food was excellent

friendly staff nothing to much for them lovely bar and very good food

bar had limited opening hours due to only recently reopening due to the current covid situation

a better stocked bar and easier to open windows

bar was great as were the cocktails

have appreciated: a box of tissues in room; a common tap in the sink; anti-skid bathmat & grab bar in slippery shower

amazing service, a lovely bar and conservatory with a log burner to chill out next too

oh and the bar does great cocktails

restaurant was very nice as was bar area and alfresco seating

from bar was awful

a bit tricky to get a table and order at the bar if you are alone

the bar down stairs was great and whilst i didn't get any food the menu looked good enough

lush staff great venue and bar with good food

night - comfy bed, friendly staff, good downstairs bar with lots of space, upstairs rooms good clientele

this year and it probably won t be our last stay, great location with a lovely vibe, rooftop bar was so nice at sunset, has a spa and a gym and the rooms feel

) and harriet at the bar - great people

in the rooftop bar was rude and abrupt, took drinks with a quarter left, said we couldn t order at the bar and

very nice atmosphere in the bar and dining room

trouble, breakfast very good with a good choice of menu however the evening meal was taken in the bar or conservatory which could be very noisy we felt a quiet dining area should be set aside for

the food was also excellent in the restaurant, and the spa and bar with views were also fabulous

when booking as there is no lift if you are less mobile you can use the lounge which has a small bar witha good selection of drinks we can truly say a very big thank you to lynn and

the location, the friendly welcome, the honesty bar , good value for money
