Photo was misleading for a normal double bed, but comfortable room. Evening food very disappointing with only Pizza available which was overcooked as were the cheesy chips which by no means were gooey and unctious, However, beer was amazing. Breakfast as always was outstanding as was the chef that served breakfast.

Perfect
Exactly what we needed after a day on Dartmoor. Friendly welcome, great service and food. Took the Dart room, wonderful panoramic view of the (very, very high!) River Dart beneath the window. Quaint, cozy and warm. We will stay again.

paying for breakfast was a waste of money!
Warm and clean, adequate for one night. I paid extra for breakfast, but was told breakfast does not start until 8:30am and I had to leave the hotel at 7:30am. I was told this is ok as cereals and juice etc (cold breakfast) is laid out the night before and will be available for me to help myself before I leave. Unfortunately when I left the property the door to the hotel/bar/pub eating area where breakfast is served was locked. So paying for breakfast was a waste of money! Not great service....

Hotel staff were friendly and accommodating. The room was clean and tidy and bed was comfortable. The shower room was small but perfect for what we needed. The hotel wasn’t serving food during our stay but did serve a hot breakfast which was delicious. Would stay here again

My wife and I were looking for somewhere to stay near Ashburton because we didn't want to drive back to west Cornwall in the dark after a meeting we were attending. We also didn't want to spend too much on our room. The Abbey Inn fitted perfectly AND INCLUDED FREE BREAKFAST as well. The staff were most welcoming and helpful and it was a real pleasure to stay in such a lovely location, with the sound of the river rushing by. I am sure that in the summer it would be even more beautiful, sitting on the decking enjoying an evening drink. Checking in was really easy. The room was perfectly acceptable, despite having chosen the smallest double room. The bed was really comfortable.
Purists will say this isn't really a "Full English" as it doesn't include beans. But it was extremely well cooked beautifully presented and delivered very promptly.
