A very warm welcome was given by the couple when we arrived. Our room was comfy and clean and had all the usual amenities you would expect. There was an outdoor pool and a very nice decking area which was very inviting. A very tasty breakfast was had the next day with very attentive service.

Lovely property ideally located in Coome Martin. Very quiet and peaceful. Lovely gardens with outside pool. Dave and his wife are very friendly and helpful. The breakfasts are delicious and nothing is too much trouble. We had a great time staying there and is an ideal base to explore Devon! Parking is a little tricky on a bit of an upslope but there are plenty of spaces available. We will be back again when in Devon.

A very good traditional B&B

The hotel is a well run traditional U.K. Seaside B&B. Everything was very clean and well maintained. The owners were very friendly and helpful. Provided your expectations are reasonable, Saffron House represents very good value for money.
