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.

A Magical Place

This B&B could not be set in a more magical place. Our hosts, Andrew & Martin, were so lovely and took such care to make sure we were comfortable and enjoyed our stay. I really hope we find our way back to this little paradise!

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.

Andrew and Martin were great hosts, made us and our dog feel very welcome, including dog bowl, treats and bed for our pooch! Andrew was very kind to cater for my vegan diet at breakfast, nothing was too much trouble. The property is very peaceful and relaxing with fantastic hikes from the door.

My husband and i stayed in the self contained property. It was absolutely perfect. everything was there to make your trip perfect. Beautiful views from double aspect windows. A balcony to have your evening wine or breakfast. Andrew and Martin beautiful Gentlemen. Always there if needed. Coming from Australia we stayed here 6 nights and it was heavenly.

Beautiful house and location, with a great (if hilly!) walk into Dartmouth. Andrew and Martin were wonderful hosts, and made us feel very welcome and comfortable. Breakfast was lovely with plenty of options, cooked right in front of us in their amazing kitchen.

A relaxing trip

The stay was utterly wonderful. We were looking for a haven to escape to and we succeeded finding Downton Lodge. Downton Lodge is conveniently situated for the seaside, the moors and the towns. We can only say positive things about our stay and will certainly be returning.

First class, quality accommodation.

Just spent a lovely few days in this wonderful B&B. Everything first class from covid secure check-in to departure. Lovely large room overlooking fields, quiet and peaceful. Wonderful host Andrew, meticulous attention to detail. Really lovely breakfasts, all freshly prepared in the gorgeous country kitchen diner. Quality furnishings and special touches make this a perfect retreat and leaves you feeling quite spoilt 😊.

We booked our trip last minute and we are so glad we found availability at Downton Lodge. The property was fantastic, in an idyllic setting and beautifully decorated. Our room was very well appointed and the bed was enormous! Andrew & Martin clearly put a huge amount of effort in to the property, and they have considered every aspect to ensure guests have a comfortable stay. All current distance and hygiene requirements were followed. Highly recommended! We loved our stay and would love to come back soon. Sian & Lee
