Downton Lodge Country B&B

Just got home from a 3 night stay at Downton Lodge. Such a peaceful and welcoming place, well away from any hustle and bustle, but with easy access to the river Dart and Dartmouth itself. Nothing is to much trouble for Andrew and Martin, they make you feel very welcome and at home. The rooms are beautifully finished and very comfortable. Breakfast was excellent, quality ingredients, beautifully cooked to order and served in the lovely breakfast room with great views of the Devon countryside.  All in all, a great little break. We will be back.

Downton Lodge was a beautiful property in stunning countryside with magnificent views. Our room was sparkling clean & super comfortable, with great bed & good bathroom facilities. We also had use of a shared lounge room area which was very nice & included an honesty bar as well as tea & coffee making facilities. Breakfasts were amazing with a wide range of fresh products, perfectly cooked & beautifully presented. Andrew & Martin were the perfect hosts, we so enjoyed chatting with them.

Excellent in every way. Andrew and Martin were friendly,kind and helpful. Delicious breakfast and lovely view over the garden and fields . Not easy to find the turning off the lane,ask for instructions!!

We stayed in the 2 bedroom barn with some friends for a long weekend and we were all impressed with the standard of the accommodation and the attention to detail. Our hosts could not have been more helpful setting us into our rooms and were on hand if we needed any help. The Lodge is situated on a track through a working dairy farm so the soft mooing of cows as they were brought in for the morning milking was the gentle soundtrack for our breakfasts. Other than that what struck us was the peacefulness of the countryside surrounding the Lodge. It is but a short drive into Dartmouth where you can sit having a quiet drink watching the boats on the River Dart. We loved it so much we have booked for a longer stay in August. All in all a gem of a place for a couple to stay.

A beautiful guesthouse in the middle of the countryside, the only thing you can hear are the birds singing. Lovely freshly made breakfast, nothing was too much trouble. The only slight downside is if you are in the garden room and the people in the room above are up early the floors are very noisy as you can hear them walking around, however it’s very nice to have your own little garden. I would definitely recommend

An excellent property providing a high standard of accommodation with attention to every detail set in a beautiful location looked after by friendly helpful and professional hosts. Downton lodge is located in the county side with easy access to Dartmouth and the surrounding area,
