The Railway Inn

We stayed here on a long weekend away visiting steam railways in Dorset and the Devon. We spent one night at this classical railway hotel. The hotel has a huge car park. It serves excellent pub food and beer in the evening. The full English breakfast next morning set us up for our visit to Brixham the next day. Our Victorian-style bedroom was huge. The location is convenient for visiting Agatha Christie's Greenway NT property by car.

We stayed for a night to travel on The Train of Lights and our accommodation was right by the railway track and the bedroom that our son's stayed in was facing the track so they could watch the train pass through and hear it's whistle, which they loved. You could only hear the train whistle while the event is taking place, no traffic noise lovely and quiet, comfortable sleep. Mark who is the manager was extremely friendly and welcoming. Our room was very spacious, well presented and clean, Sunday Lunch was absolutely beautiful, big portions and very well priced, breakfast was also very nice indeed. Would definitely recommend.

Breakfast was plentiful - juices/pastries/cereals/toast etc first then a plated breakfast was cooked to order, which very tasty - great ingredients cooked well and served nicely. The room was comfortable and had enough power outlets for our device recharging needs - fresh towels - not the most modern, but an absolutely functional and clean bathroom - shower over the bath was good. Parking was easy and there was plenty of room. Location was perfect for Brixham Harbour and amenities, which was a great place to visit - just a short drive then the harbour car park was run by "RingGo" on a 'start/stop' basis using their phone app - or I think you can pay cash if you like. Great stay and would definitely consider returning in the future.

The restaurant offered an excellent experience, highlighted by its lovely setting and a diverse menu that provided plenty of options. We enjoyed a delicious meal in the evening, and the breakfast was equally satisfying, featuring a flavorful fry-up. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and our local family said the Sunday lunch is well worth visiting for. The location is on a bus route so easy to get to other towns and attractions.

The location was superb. Just over the road from the gold course and a bus stop into Brixham. The room (triple) was spacious, ideal for a couple of people with a lot of kit (golf clubs or hiking gear). Staff were very friendly and attentive and the food was superb.
