| My first visit to this pub last Monday having seen it from the train many times, I walked from Starcross station, about 2 miles along the seawall. What a stunning location, the pub is next to the sealock for the EXeter ship canal with extensive gardens and extensive views across the Exe estuary. 6 beers were available from the Otter Brewery and the Exeter Brewery based in nearby Exminster, food looked good and the service was friendly, altogether a fantastic pub well worth a visit. In Summer there is an hourly ferry service to Topsham Quay and a less frequent one along the canal to the Double Locks pub nearer Exeter. Hodge1 - 14 Jul 2011 16:01 |
| Noted a few cars parked here yesterday. They must have driven along the track from Exminster. A pity to loose the car free status. As I did not see any blue badges I assume that some people are too bone idle to walk for a formerly unique experience. That said, this is a lovely pub in an ideal setting. They have a good range of beers and we received a pleasent welcome. Didn't have any food, but will try next time. captaineric - 13 Jun 2010 15:07 |

| Cycled to this pub as it is not reachable by road.We had fish and chips which was very nice although a little expencive at £9.99 each,this was washed down with a few pints of Otter bitter for me and Aspnal cider for my wife. Outside in the large grounds there was a barbeque for the patrons which I was told was a regular thing in the summer. This pub is worth the walk/cycle that it takes to reach it. foghornred - 31 Jul 2009 22:47 |
| Lovely pub in wonderful location. Only accessible on foot or by bicycle, although I believe you can catch a boat down the canal from Exeter in the summer. Windy42 - 19 Jan 2009 19:38 |
