Tim the host was brilliant,  the double room en suite was great, breakfast was good. We would stay there again.  Only one minor criticism was that the property was hedged in, so no views.

V good

Boutique style B&B in tranquil location overlooking the river Exe. A ten minute walk from the Puffing Billy pub from where you can walk along the River Exe Trail south to Exmouth and return via the train for a pleasant day out. The trail also goes north towards Topsham which takes around 20 minutes on foot where you can experience the sunset from the bars / restaurants on the riverside

Tranquil Charm on the River Exe

We had a very large room with large en-suite shower room and patio doors to an outside seating area. Apart from that we virtually had the run of the entire ground floor including breakfast sitting room with another TV and a utility room equipped with tea and coffee making facilities etc. Wonderful fairly remote spot beside the River Exe and an excellent host.

Wonderful stay

We really enjoyed our 3 nights at Riverdown. Tim was a fantastic host and there was more to the accommodation than we expected (eg use of a kitchen, with real milk, to make drinks and use of microwave). We were right next to the estuary, with lovely views and the walk/cycleway linking Exmouth and Exeter. Highly recommended, we genuinely hope to return.

Lovely accommodation in a stunning location

Lovely relaxing stay ,Tim was very accommodating.Plenty for breakfast Train ran along bottom of garden twice an hour but never really bothered us

Great communication prior to stay, warm welcome, exceptionally clean, comfy roomGreat bathroom Excellent hostStunning location for riding bikes and walking

Great place to stay. Very clean and lovely comfy bed.
2 bedrooms, 1 with en suite, 1 with sole use of a large bathroom. We had the en suite room.
Have use of the whole downstairs including kitchen to make drinks, make use of the fridge etc.
You get your own key to the front door so you can come and go as you please.
Great host, he knew i used to keep chickens so even gave me one of his own chickens free range eggs for breakfast.
Really hope your still doing it next year. 
Thank you for a great stay.

Great Place To Stay - Owner Brilliant

Tim was an excellent host and having the run of downstairs kitchen and gardens made it feel like a home from home with better views

Recently spent five days in Devon primarily to look at areas to locate to next year but also to have a short relaxing break.  Decided to concentrate on towns on an estuary so chose the Riverdown Bed and Breakfast in Exton near Topsham and Exmouth as a base to explore.  So glad we did.  What a hidden gem.  The setting is beautiful with stunning views over the River Exe.  

On arrival we were warmly greeted by Tim, the owner who was very friendly, helpful and attentive.  
The whole of the ground floor is for the guests with only two rooms, a double ensuite and a twin/double with a separate large bathroom.  As the double ensuite was booked we stayed in the twin room which was big, comfortable and spotless.  The double ensuite has its own outside patio with a table and chairs but there is another table and chairs outside the lounge/dining room for guest use.  
Both rooms look out into a lovely garden.  

The lounge/dining room is a room which can be used by guests anytime of the day and there is access to the kitchen which has a fridge, microwave and tea/coffee making facilities.  Breakfast was served in the lounge/dining room and was very well cooked.  

We loved Topsham, in fact it would be a lovely place to live.  There are many nice cafes/restaurants here and a three storey antique centre at the quay.  The estuary is really picturesque and well worth a visit.  We spend many hours sitting at the quay side watching the boats go by.  Darts Farm shop nearby is also worth a visit as is Exmouth where you can book a boat trip.  Stuart Line Cruises have a wide range of trips around the beaches and coves as well as trips on the River Exe but book online early to avoid disappointment.  

There are many restaurants/pubs in the area but Tim recommended a village pub just up the road called the Puffin Billy.  As it was our wedding anniversary while we were there we decided to try it. The pub was very nice with friendly staff and good food.  There is also a nice outdoor area to enjoy drinks in the evening.  

This part of Devon is a wonderful place to visit and we are really pleased we found the Riverdown B and B.  We would highly recommend it as a place to stay for its superb location, home comforts, good breakfast, excellent value for money and an excellent host.  

Thank you Tim for a lovely stay and hope to see you again when we locate next year to this beautiful part of Devon.
