Lovely family room with adjoining bunk room for the kids. Amazingly clean & comfortable. One of the best “pub” stays we’ve had. Would 100% book again if re-visiting the area.
Really nice pub-hotel with decent rooms. The staff were very helpful and the breakfast was fantastic. We stayed 1 night whilst walking the coastal path - it was perfect for that.
The friendliness and helpfulness of the staff was exceptional, from chatting with the bar staff to a chef coming out of the kitchen to explain how a dish I enjoyed was made.
Food quality was fantastic, great portion sizes, well presented and tasty.
Badger Beer made it even better.
Great option if staying in Devon. A quiet town with lovely locals and beautiful sights. The rooms were exactly as pictured. The staff were really nice with any needs we had. Megan in particular was amazing help each day.
In the future I think each room could do with some sort of small mini fridge.
We enjoyed our short stay. Very helpful friendly staff. A comfortable clean room but a bit cluttered and in need of some coat hooks
A really good choice of breakfasts and comprehensive menu..

Room was spacious and clean , breakfasts delicious.
Very convenient hotel in centre of town. Onsite parking, nice big rooms and nice bed. No aircon, but staff went out of their way to provide a fan on request!
Good breakfast.
Large outside seating area, but unfortunately next to the car park so not very atmospheric.
Entertainment provided by lots of seagulls - guard your chips!
Fabulous stay at The Dolphin - lovely friendly staff, easy check in and such a gorgeous room with beautiful little touches. Super clean and super comfortable bed.
