    Short stay for a family wedding and this was just what we needed and seeing kingfishers pass by twice was a real bonus.

    I only stayed the one night having never been to Tavistock before - the welcome was exceptional and the room very comfortable and I slept well. In the morning the breakfast choice was excellent and cooked to perfection. I am more than happy to recommend Kingfisher Cottage to anybody who is looking for a stay in the town, as they won't be disappointed and the view from the breakfast room of the river flowing past is exceptional. It is fun playing musical cars out the front as there isn't much parking space, but the owners are used to this and they are expert at getting your car in alongside their own - thank you for your hospitality.

    Warm friendly welcome and lovely service. Allowed my dog too. Great location within walking distance to the town. The bed and room is super comfy. This is my second stay and won't be my last. Breakfast was plentiful, with really good produce.

    Nothing! ....well maybe the fact we only stayed one night and not more.

    Perfect location for meeting up with family but still walking distance of town centre. Loved the decking and breakfast area overlooking the river and could sit and watch all day.

    The rooms are a tight fit and were hot but this can't be helped - it's hot everywhere! The fans provided were helpful.

    We loved quaintness of the place and the location was excellent. The hosts were wonderful and full of recommendations for sight seeing and local restaurants. The back bedroom was particularly lovely with a view of the brook. The breakfast was fabulous!!

    Just the weather, but of course you can't do anything about that.

    A lovely location, with a view of the river at the back, and it was nice to eat breakfast in the conservatory. A delicious breakfast with plenty of choice, and lovely rustic toast.

    We managed, and was dog friendly, however the room was quite compact and a little squashy with our bigger dog. However was a good stay despite this.

    Friendly. Welcoming. Lovely shower.

    I don't actually count the limited parking as a genuine prob as there's lotsa ways round it tbh, so loved it all.

    Location was great. Parking was tight and the host went to great lengths to minimise this issue so personally I didn't find it to be an actual prob and def 5* on that.Thanks Paul! Well placed for all the town's facilities too! Brek was great, perfectly cooked and all the toast + marm you need in the conservatory overlooking the Tavy. Room was comfortable, simple but clean, with WiFi, and a nice roomy shower - all at a v nice price!! Happy days, if I ever need a local billet again, I'll look no further than the Kingfisher. Seriously. 😁👍.
