We stayed for a week in the Tawny cottage. From pre arrival we had great communication and help with our booking. On arrival the cottage is gorgeous three large bedrooms with en-suites. A cosy living area with kitchen and dining. Everywhere was designed to give a luxurious feel ! The hot tub was amazing lights speakers and more jets and water features than ever had at previous lodges and cottages. It had everything you could need for a comfortable stay and views opened out to see surrounding fields. We had takeaway pizza and Greek food from the street food vans and a drink in the pub. We also had two amazing meals the Mussel Burger, Chicken Supreme and Thai green curry were amazing ! Service was great and all the staff were friendly helpful. It had a lovely atmosphere and dog friendly. It’s such a relaxed area and full of charm. From the cottage there are fantastic cliff costal walks. We walked to Bovisand beach and along to Jenny Cliff then another day we walked from Bovisand to Haybrook bay and back. We also did Wembury point to Wembury beach then back to Haybrook. Great walks and views on the doorstop. On a rainy day we visited Plymouth and visited Barbican area for a meal. Then once the rain cleared a circular walk to the Hoe and lido and back to the harbour. Would recommend a trip to Dartmouth great views, lovely shops and great atmosphere at the food festival. We used the park ride and also walked to the castle. First time to South Devon and it had everything for a fantastic holiday would definitely recommend. Thankyou Lou and all at Mussel Inn.

Lovely pub/restaurant with very friendly staff. Ate here whilst staying at The Mussel Cottages(fantastic self catering cottage and they offered to bring food down to the cottages if we wanted! and couldn’t fault food or service. “Mussel” burger lovely and catch of the day was very tasty John Dory, not tried it before but was delicious. Big bowl of mussels in classic sauce was delicious just needed a bit more bread to mop up the sauce ! Good selection of drinks, plenty of gin choices and also very nice cocktails. Food not served Mon/Tues but there is takeaway food provided in the car park which you can eat in the pub! Cottages were perfect, everything we could ask for, very home from home, even a slow cooker if you want to make a dinner to come back to after a day out. Only thing I found tricky was no simple instructions for hob and oven, but a quick google worked

Came here with my wife today on recommendation of our neighbours and it was amazing! Beautiful place and really really peaceful. We wanted a nice meal and a bit of a chill out after the kids have been off school for 6 weeks. Inside is stunning, and it’s really clean and laid out well. You don’t feel like you’re on top of other people. Toilets were immaculate when I nipped in. The staff were really attentive and friendly, especially the lady behind the bar and the chap who brought our food out to us (I assumed he was the manager). We both loved our meals and then went to sit outside to enjoy our pints overlooking the fields in the peace and quiet. It’s nice to know there’s a well looked after playground if we returned with our kids. We’ll definitely be returning here, thank you.

Where can I begin.. we chose to have our wedding at the mussel inn cottages and the service we received from Jamie, Katie all the staff was second to none. Nothing was too much! The food for the Friday evening was incredible, a party of 36 all served at the same time no mistakes what so ever!! Booking so last minute you allowed us to have exclusive use of the beautiful venue and surrounding. With the park to keep all the children entertained too! Cannot recommend enough the cottages are stunning too thank you Louisa.. will be back soon Thank you for making our wedding so special.. x
