“This 4-star, family-run hotel in Shaldon struck me as a cozy, historic place, the kind of spot where thoughtful owners make all the difference; details like home-cooked breakfasts with local ingredients and personalized attention really stand out. I imagine days spent exploring the village green, maybe a trip on England's oldest passenger ferry, then returning to uniquely designed rooms- a restful escape that feels both personal and warmly professional.”
