    Very pretty location beside the Exe river, in part of an old mill building. In addition to a lovely room I can recommend their restaurant. Ample on-site parking. It is only a few minutes walk to the centre of Exeter, but the walk is up a steep...

    The location is fantastic - we walked along the paved path by the river to the quay area where there are loads of great bars and restaurants (about a 20 minute walk) in the evening. The building is lovely and characterful. The pub is right there...

    The overnight oats with fresh fruit and yoghurt was scrumptious. The bartender in the cellar bar was really nice and made us two coffees even though she was closing the bar. The receptionist helped us by making a printout for us.

    Spacious room with views over the river and excellent private parking right outside. Sunday roast and breakfast were both fantastic, and the staff couldn't have been more helpful. It's a great place for a short stay in Exeter.
