Charlotte is... more

We stayed for one night this August 2008 on our way to Cornwall. We were made to feel very welcome and given superb rooms and a home cooked dinner. It really is a lovely place with beautiful french style decor in the room we had. Highly recommended. more

I stayed at the Old Inn Drewsteignton, Devon, for 2 weeks in May '08. The accommodation was First Class, the beds are extremely comfortable (like the best American hotels), yet it has all the charm and character that I was hoping for of Dartmoor without any of the chintz. The price was realistic, The breakfasts are fantastic and the best... more
