The Thatch Inn

You can’t visit Devon without visiting a thatched pub. 

We can't think of a nicer pub to spend a summer’s afternoon or evening, with a large beer garden that traps the sun all day. They have light bites available for lunch and a delicious evening menu. True Devonian hospitality—friendly service, good food, good drink.
