We have 14 en-suite bedrooms of various sizes over two floors. Parts of the building can be dated back to the mid 1600's and has over its history been a boarding house, a Carpenters and Coffin shop and later a dairy. The famous Brixham Smuggler Bob Elliott is also known to have resided here . This is a vibrant town which draws young and old back every year. We have been lucky enough to have many familiar faces stay here year after year. What you will get here is a friendly welcome, clean bedroom and a good breakfast.
