Nothing special.Parking prices very high

Sadly the food was very average but because the parking is private you have to pay £5 whether you stay for a minute or all day.More

travel by bus from Plymouth which would be the best route and the buses how frequent are they during the day.

You can probably get a bus into Totnes. The local 'Bob the Bus' can most likely get you to The River Shack but I would Google local busses in and around the Totnes/Stoke Gabriel area just to be sure.
