Wonderful Ness - Fabulous location. Part of the Hall & Woodhouse family of incredible destination inns and named after the ‘Ness’ (the rocky outcrop that towers over it), this beautiful Devon inn is a Grade II listed haunt with nine stunning bedrooms. Its location, on the South West Coast Path, provides stunning views over the Teign Estuary. Originally built in 1810 as the summer home of the infamous Clifford family, who, as rumour has it, enlarged their fortune through smuggling (via the secret tunnel just behind the pub). The pub hotel had an extensive refurbishment and investment in 2020 offering guests stunning rooms and views; with food and drink to match.
