“This family-run establishment in Dawlish strikes me as a place where the charm of an 18th-century building meets genuinely warm hospitality. I especially appreciate that they accommodate dietary needs at breakfast. Its location, a stone's throw from both the train station and the beach, makes it ideal for those looking to explore without a car.”
