Stayed for 2 nights whilst visiting a friend in Exeter. Picked this B&B for the location and that it has the carvery on site. Bathroom needs re-furb asap and a good clean! The mix and match tiles had orange grout where it had consistently not been cleaned. Mix and match colours of the bathroom suite too, think I had turquoise,... More

We have been several times lately for a carvery. Very polite staff,helpful and a good honest roast. Plenty of different meats to choose from (And a few Veggie alternatives which my son says was very nice) and stacks of nice looking,not overcooked veg. Several different gravies including Vegetarian and Gluten free. They will even plate up carvery seperately for you... More

i haven't stayed at the hotel and i hope the reviews i read were by jealous competitors, but the carvery we had on sunday 5-2-12 was the best i have ever had. There was even individual gravey for different meats. the only fault I could make was there being too much veg; to choose from and i could hardly walk... More

Due to a large family party at Christmas I booked my son and his girlfriend in here as its close by. I don't think the place employs chambermaids or cleaning staff and it was filthy. As for the general state of the place, if you're old enough to remember the original Crossroads on TV, they obviously modelled themselves on that... More

The pub is amazing, love the food, service is great but step over to the accommodation! Yuk! The bath still had someone's pubes in it (sorry for being crude) it had water stains all round like it hadn't been cleaned in months let alone every time a person stayed there. Cillet bang will have to work stupidly hard! Very expensive... More

Booked a room for disabled use ,they said we could have the biggest room as my Husband cannot walk any distance because of emphysema and we were also quoted the price, when we arrived we were asked for a totally different price and told that the room we booked was not available due to the previous occupant extending his visit,...

I arrived on a Saturday to what I can only discribe as the worst place I have ever stayed. The corridors are dark and smelt horrid the room had not had any form of decoration in many years, although the bedding was clean everything else was old discoloured and smelt foul. I had asked for a cot bed which they... More

Used to regularly use this pub/accommodation to visit family. Decided to revisit after a gap of 4 years. Surprised to find same old bathroom, battered furniture and carpet. There was a large flat screen TV though! Buffet breakfast was more than adequate but weekend carvery in restaurant was expensive. A bit stingy with the meat and not enough staff around.... More
