We stayed in the budget room which was good for us two travellers walking the coastal path. The room only had a bath which was great for us but not for everyone. The meal we had in the pub was very delicious 😋. We had a great stay with you for a very reasonable price 😀

Great location! Room was a very nice size and quite comfortable. Vintage room had lots of character as well as the entire hotel. We stayed for the breakfast and it was quite good, fresh pastries were amazing. The hotel staff did excellent considering they were obviously understaffed for the morning rush!

Choose your room carefully. The comfort plus rooms are at the front looking over the village high street (this is the plus part) and the other rooms overlook each other or the car park and/or the outside terrace. The bar was really nice as is the building and the staff were very good and helpful.

Room was very clean and bed and pillows very comfortable. The location overall would appear to have been recently refurbished. Service in the resteraunt was ok, could have been a little more timely.

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!

I'm a coach driver who has visited, literally, hundreds of hotels a year for 50 years. This was a private visit, paid out of my own pocket, to attend my Niece's graduation from Exeter University (she got a 1st!). It is hard to impress me with service, but the Dolphin exceeded all my expectations. The staff were nothing short of fantastic, the rooms were spotless, and the breakfast worth far more than I paid. Excellent parking, fantastic service, and I'll be bringing my family back for another stay.

Perfect, clean family room with separate sleeping areas, it offered plenty of space for two teenagers and two adults. Lots of storage so ideal for a longer stay. Bathroom was spacious and the shower was great. There was an additional wardrobe space for extra storage too. The breakfast area was again clean and spacious, plenty of tables to choose from. The menu offered a good variety including vegetarian and vegan options, hot food was cooked to order but there was also a buffet on offer with fruit, yoghurts, pastries and cereals. The cooked breakfast was very filling and the pancakes were enjoyed by our teenagers! The staff were very welcoming and friendly, took us to our room and explained everything to us. The bar area was spacious and had different cosy areas and bars including an outdoor seating area. There was also an outdoor bar available on the one evening. Would recommend and definitely stay here again.
