A lovely three night stay at Downton Lodge. Martin and Andrew are excellent hosts who ensure that they run a guest house with very high standards. Lots of details have been considered to provide everything one might need whilst away from home. Breakfast is cooked very well with high quality ingredients, and the hosts known the area in depth so that they can advise their guests of what to do and see. Overall, an excellent stay.

FAB U LOUS

Beautiful house and hospitable owners. Everything we needed for a relaxing break, comfy bed, good shower delicious breakfast and many small unexpected touches too -such as fresh milk and chilled water in a mini fridge. Andrew and Martin were wonderful hosts, always happy to suggest restaurants and advise on the best routes to take to get to them. ..... not easy on the narrow Devon lanes!

Almost too good to want to share. An exquisitely presented, located and managed refuge in a lovely peaceful marine/ rural setting overlooking one of Britain's most beautiful river estuaries. Laid back, efficient, non intrusive owner management. You will relax! The best of British bed and breakfast hospitality Oh, and those breakfasts!

Best B/B in Devon by a mile

What a fabulous location matched only by the 1st class room we stayed in. Andrew and Martin were the perfect hosts and we will definitely be recommending this brilliant B/B to everyone. It’s the best we’ve stayed in. The beds are comfy, the breakfasts excellent and the room we had was everything you hope for but don’t usually get. Well done guys. We will definitely be coming back.

Had an excellent stay at Downton Lodge for 2 nights. Superb property and well appointed rooms. Whilst located down a working farm track and quite a walk into Dittisham this is made up for by the welcome and the breakfast. You do need regular use of the car. Would recommend and definitely stay again when in the area.
