A great homely B&B within a short walk from city centre.

A fantastic, homely B&B, great location just approx a 10minute stroll from the city centre and John Lewis. The bed was extremely comfortable. Breakfast hot and delicious with lots of choice, carpark at the rear of the property. Highly recommend, will definitely be returning.

Everything was fine.

Very enjoyable, weather improved as well which helped considering recent rainfall.

Location was perfect, just 5 mins to shops and restaurant that had been pre booked. Breakfast was good, plenty of choice. Very homely atmosphere.

Nothing comes to mind. Ideally situated for what we wanted for a 2 day break.

Lovely stay, thank you!

Location was great, as was tea/coffee/biscuits in the room. Rooms warm and clean - lots of character.

Only one thing to improve - Breakfast was great overall - so nice to have a range of cereal/muesli options, yoghurts etc, but toast was cold and not much butter/marmelade in the table. Otherwise, all delicious My dad found the pillows a bit too soft but we slept very well.

Interesting character property

The beautiful furniture and decor in keeping with age of the house. Breakfast freshly cooked. Parking was good in a city where parking appeared to be an issue. Staff friendly and helpful.

The shower could have been a little more powerful.

Pleasant stay, centrally located, and good value for money.

Good breakfast. Nice choice on the menu. The location was central and it was easy to get in to the main places of interest in Exeter. I really appreciated having my room upgraded to a larger one that was available. It was spacious and had a dual aspect. Excellent shower. Lovely garden, which would be a pleasure in the summer. Staff pleasant and attentive

The owners have gathered a large amount of objet d'artes which can clutter up areas. In the breakfast there was a low cupboard which reduced space, and opposite a large piece of pottery reducing the legroom for the other person. I'd suggest decluttering.

Worth another visit if I need to return to Exeter

Good location. Well organised. Competitive price

Car parking not easy but could be simplified by sending those who require a space a sketch of the location, the route to the property and the access codes for the gates

"4 star hotel" with dogs in the kitchen!

Quite centrally located.

Pretending to be a four star hotel (ridiculuos), but actually just another former residential building turned into commercial accomodation. No reception existing. Staff consists of teenagers in sweatpants. Not able to provide a proper invoice. Main front door defective. Keypads of doors defective and not enlightened. Entrance area without lights (very dangerous in the dark). Not enough tables in breakfast room, so you have to wait or share a table with strangers. Two dogs running around in kitchen (disgusting). Kitchen door in ground floor constantly open, so that complete building is smelly all the time. Breakfast

Fantastic location, near to city center, nice room and proper fried breakfast

The room was a nice size, clean and tidy with hot drinks facility and a nice ensuite with a good selection of cleansing products. The bed mattress and pillows were lovely and we had a great nights sleep (once warm!). Full English breakfast was also fantastic with quality local produce which was cooked to perfection. Location was also great, just a short 5min walk to the city center which made our stay even better.

Unfortunately the heating was not on when we arrived in the afternoon and it was a very cold day so the room was also very cold. We did ask if this could be turned up but it failed to come up to temperature which was frustrating. Although on returning from the evening out the heating had come on in the room but still not in the ensuite. We did discuss this in the morning with a member of staff who was very apologetic and although this was an issue at the time I would recommend this property as it was really good value for money.

acceptable for one night

The room was acceptable for one night with a good tv. The breakfast was excellent as was the staff member who served.

The path from the road to the house which included steps was in the dark (dangerous) The room was cold upon arrival and couldn't be adjusted through the radiator The kettle hadn't been emptied from the previous occupier and the extra blankets etc stored in the wardrobe was a complete mess

Cozy and very friendly stop for a short visit to Exeter.

Nice and welcoming Guesthouse. Excellent full english breakfast. Very friendly host.

There not so many things around. But just 10/15’ walk to the town centre and cathedral, so not a major problem.

A unique friendly and ver6 comfortable stay

Everything was just lovely from the welcoming and friendly email answering my question before booking until our departure. Attention to detail made such a difference from the wonderful pillows and very comfortable bed to the nicest breakfast with excellent coffe and delicious food so well cooked and presented. Everything we could need had been provided though we felt we could have asked for anything that might have been overlooked. Thank you so much for a lovely stay. We would love to come back.
