Did not use this as too old!

September 2023

Amazing day out with the family - would definitely recommend.

June 2021

We had a fantastic time on the kayaks and Mark was very helpful.

August 2022

Easy booking and good guidance for paddle to the pub.

April 2022

A wonderful stretch of water to explore. We thoroughly enjoyed our two hours up Bow Creek.

August 2021

Great friendly staff who were very helpful to inexperienced Kayakers! We thoroughly enjoyed our time on the River Dart and would definitely return should we be lucky enough to visit again. Lovely views!

July 2021

Highly recommend Totnes Kayaks. Equipment was top class and they couldn’t do enough to make sure we were happy with our hire. Great recommendations of where to kayak, what time and day to make the most of the tides

August 2019

Very helpful staff - both friendly and informative. A very pleasant afternoon spent - wish we'd had time to do it again.

August 2018

My daughter and granddaughter really enjoyed this park and was amazed how big it was and how many attractions it had.

April 2017

Don't expect Alton Towers- but if you want a great place to spend the day and keep the kids entertained, then this is the best there is in South Devon. I'd say better for 7-13s than anything over....

March 2017

No matter what the weather is you'll have a day of fun. Only downside is that if your 7 year old is a bit tall for their age they will be charged an adult ticket price

December 2016

Brilliant day out for all ages.

December 2016

I like Woodlands because it is entertaining whatever the weather

December 2016

Enjoyed the pool and the sauna and the jacuzzi - very relaxing

April 2017

Good beer, friendly service and very good food.

November 2023

Great location, and good for a drink. However, we went there on the regatta weekend , delayed from July and took over an hour to get a drink !,

September 2023

Had a linch and a dinner here. My husband said the moules he had were the best he'd ever tasted. Praise indeed.

August 2023

We ordered a takeaway when we arrived and it was very nice

July 2023

Highly recommend. Visited several times, within walking distance from Perchwood Shippon. Good food and variety. Pleasant inside and out.

May 2023

perfect location excellant food and friendly staff

September 2022

Excellent. Lovely food, helpful staff and a superb location

September 2022

Amazing evenings spent at this pub, crabbing and enjoying a quiet drink whilst watching the boats. The food is amazing too.

August 2022

We visited this pub last year 2021 when we encountered problems I.e. not enough staff, the staff there was were not at all cheerful and welcoming and the cleanliness of the place including the actual tables & the ladies was poor. Sorry to say we tried again this year and there still was not enough staff, there was a five deep queue for the bar who the staff were ignoring because they were giving priority to people who were ordering food! We gave up and went to another establishment. What a shame because it’s in a grand situation Floyd must be turning in his grave!!

June 2022

A lovely place to enjoy a meal. We visited twice & particularly enjoyed sitting by the dock & watching the yachts go back & forth

May 2022

Fabulous place, great food.

April 2022

Lovely pub friendly staff nice atmosphere

November 2021

Very nice, struggling with staff levels and seats rather hard. Food ok

September 2021

Excellent food and location

August 2021

Unfriendly eye rolling waitress. Decided to walk down the road to the Watermans Arms and ate there instead several times!

July 2021

Very very busy and tables not cleared but staff and food were friendly and doing their best in difficult times.

July 2021

We had a table booked for our Tuesday night and had researched the menu at home before we left for hol: so we were surprised to get a more upmarket selection at a quite higher cost! What we had was good, but there was a but! Husband had the lamb and it came with nothing else at all. Service started off well but we had a long wait to order our desserts, not enough staff for volume of customers.

May 2021

Had takeaway fish & chips one night and ate at the pub 2 nights and it was absolutely delicious

December 2019

Good food. Good local walks too.

October 2019

We especially liked the Malsters Arms, which was just a few minutes’ walk away from where we were staying. We enjoyed having a drink sitting outside on the quay, take away fish and chips and an excellent meal in the restaurant (on different days).

October 2018

Good food and friendly staff, would recommend booking

September 2018

Food good but service extremely poor. Staff appeared very disorganised. I think the pub is living off its past history re Keith Floyd. Pub also starting to look a little tired and needs some money spending on it.

July 2018

As we were staying in the village, we tried to eat here one evening, but they were fully booked. The bar man was quite abrupt when we asked for a table, which put us off trying again for another evening. We heard from another couple that they had experienced the same thing, hence why we ate at the Watermans Arms each evening, as they were most welcoming.

June 2018

Great food and service in a delightful village by the river. One of our favourite places.

May 2018

Really lovely meals again here. Very welcoming and accommodating to our two children.

April 2018

A friendly pub in great location, with very good food.

Only stopped for a drink on the way to Dittisham but loved sitting out by the river and watching all the wildlife passing by

December 2016

Pretty location by creek very friendly pub, food not outstanding but adequate.

September 2023

We enjoyed a lovely meal sitting by the river

July 2023

We recently stayed in the local area and visited the Waterman's Arms on several occasions. We really enjoyed our evening's on the riverside and found there was a good selection to eat and drink. We dined at the pub on several occasions and always had great food at a very reasonable price, the handmade pizza's were great and the kids loved it too! looking forward to visit again on our next return visit too the area.

June 2023

Very popular, good location. Good Sunday Roasts.

May 2023

lovely location excellant food and friendly staff

September 2022

A good place for a drink beside the water

September 2022

Love, love, love this pub ?my husband and I discovered it 30+ years ago and then last year rediscovered it. We were back again this year and introduced four new folks to it who also fell in love with it so therefore we were there every day of our holiday. Staff are lovely and they do good honest tasty food, not an extensive menu but that way you know it’s not out of freezer into a mircowave. We were all sad to leave it behind so much so that we booked in for breakfast on our last morning! Great place, proper pub, locals use it too.

June 2022

We enjoyed a very pleasant meal there. The service was swift & so friendly. The area by the river is an absolute delight

May 2022

A very welcoming pub with a supporting menu to enjoy.

June 2021

Lovely old fashioned country pub and we got a great welcome on both of our visits, we had first visited it some years ago and it was so nice that it hadn’t changed or been ruined with a make over. Staff nice, helpful and very friendly - Nadia our waitress was just great and a good laugh too. We enjoyed our food very much and the ambiance. Cannot wait for our planned return visit next year, Hazel and A.J.

May 2021

Had a couple of pub meals here, a good standard of food in lovely surroundings.

October 2020

This pub was just a few minutes walk from where we were staying. Although the food was good basic pub food it was let down by the 'atmosphere' in the pub.

October 2018

Friendly pub with good food and good service

September 2018

Lovely location, food and service good but basic pub grub.

July 2018

Sorry, my review submitted a few minutes ago was submitted in error, and related to another pub in the area. We enjoyed the food at the Watermans Arms and the service was good. Lovely spot on the river and would recommend.

July 2018

We ate at the Watermans Arms every evening during our stay in Tuckenhay, which was an enjoyable stroll from our cottage. The staff were very welcoming and the menu was quite extensive. We both managed to eat something different each night during our weeks stay and the service was quick. Food was attractively presented and very good; we didn't have one bad experience. We were well looked after by the waitresses and would highly recommend.

June 2018

We visited 3 times. Very friendly pub. Good food, if anything to comment, the portions were on the large side for us.

An unpretentious, welcoming pub with fantastic food.

Superb pub, lovely location and great food .

September 2023

Excellent

September 2022

This is a fabulous village pub and the staff are all so friendly and very welcoming. We stopped off before going onto our holiday home and they had a gin festival going on so of course I ( the wife ) had to have one very good it was too. Got chatting to a lovely group of three couples plus their baby girl and they started off our holiday in a great way.

June 2022

Gorgeous food, lovely place, delightful staff. Highly recommended

April 2022

Unfortunately we were not able to have Sunday lunch as planned due to Covid rules but we did stop by one afternoon on our only one good day weather wise and very much enjoyed our drinks sat outside on a bench. Bar man was very friendly and it looked nice inside too. We are hoping to have a meal there in 2022 on a return visit.

May 2021

Fantastic welcome at this tremendous pub offering a wide variety of local beers, ciders and lagers; as well as a varied menu catering for all tastes, including 3 vegan options on the day we visited.

November 2020

Brilliant country pub, good homemade food, great real ales (listed in the good beer guide 2017) Child & dog friendly, gets very busy for Sunday lunches. Closed Mondays

March 2017

Lovely quieter beach, dog and BBQ friendly. We had teens that hired kayaks from nearby Broadsands beach and paddled around the coast to meet us. Very accomodating kayak hire and not too expensive.

August 2018

Very nice.

October 2023

This is a lovely place to visit, we went early and had breakfast at the lovely cafe before going onto the beach

September 2023

July 2023

Looks a lovely beach but unfortunately no dogs allowed at all

June 2023

Visited Blackpool sands on our honeymoon 27 years ago and have enjoyed it on both occasions. A lovely clean beach with a very nice restaurant/cafe. We walked to the beach and got the local bus back up to Stoke Fleming.

May 2023

we love this beach always clean good parking clean facilities and good cafe.

September 2022

We did go to this beach, couldn’t go in the sea as it was so rough, was beautiful though. No sand, but still very nice.

September 2022

Beautiful beach; very blue water. It’s more a pebbly rather than a sandy beach, love it all the same. It’s clean and there are lifeguards in the summer months which is when we visited. The toilets were clean and not far from the beach; no queues for the toilet either. Parking can be a bit pricey at £9 for the whole day of you come in the morning but didn’t mind it. You pay less though if you come in the afternoon. The is a little sandpit area for a any kids who want to play in sand

September 2022

It is a really beautiful beach although, despite its name, it is not a sandy beach, however our son and grandson were keen on paddle boarding. They made a special visit for this and were told that the paddleboard facilities were closed but to come the following day when the facilities were still closed! Considering that this was during the height of the holiday season, my son was a bit put out having made two wasted trips.

August 2022

A lovely beach, stunning veiw as you drive down towards it. Very clean with clear water.

August 2022

Lovely clean beach although very quiet. There was a small charge for parking.

April 2022

great place

November 2021

very clean beach and gorgeous setting. good that it didn't allow dogs.

September 2021

Welcoming, clean attractive

September 2021

No sand! Very clean and scenic, but very disappointing if you want to run around on sand

August 2021

Lovely pretty beach with good facilities.

June 2021

Very large shingle beach, charges for parking at a set fee no matter how long your visit. Can pay by card for parking as well as cash.

May 2021

Great beach

November 2020

Lovely sandy beach. Parked here (£2) whilst doing a circular walk and then returned for a walk along the beach.

November 2020

Dogs allowed on beach out of season, a bracing walk with coffee and millionaire shortbread at the cafe to finish.

October 2020

Great beach really beautiful , even in the rain, as the Venus café is right on the beach and is warm, dry and serves great food and drinks at reasonable prices.

October 2019

One of our favourite beaches, in a beautiful setting. Plenty of car parking and plenty of room on the beach, even on a busy day. The sea is clean and clear and the facilities are excellent (nice to have changing rooms). Thoroughly recommend this beach.

October 2019

Beautiful stretch of shingle beach nestled between steep hills at either end. Excellent facilities including one of the best beach cafes we've ever visited.

September 2019

We had a wonderful day at Blackpool sands. A shingle beach within a lovely cove, it was clean and felt safe for the children to swim in the water (which was also sparkling). The beach is privately run, so the carpark fee was a bit stiff (£8 for the day), however the upside of this was a beautifully clean beach with lots of amenities, including rental of SUPs and other water equipment, a great cafe, and really clean loos. On a busy day you would need to arrive before lunchtime, or the carpark will shut, but this also means that the beach didn't feel crowded at all.

September 2019

Parking charge between £3 - £8 depending on time of year, Also food good but e.g. Hawaiian Prawns (£9) consisted of 5 prawns. Not good value for money.

October 2018

Lovely beach, not sandy but the stones are okay. Good food, beverages, coast guards, Nice view and not so cowded

August 2018

Lovely clean beach in super location along coastal road. Great place to visit.

May 2018

Beautiful clean beach with excellent facilities.Clean toilets lovely cafe and shop.Lifeguard on the beach.No dogs allowed.Plenty of parking.We enjoyed rock pooling at the far end of the beach.The owner does a great job.You can also visit Blackpool Sands garden but we did not have time.Also a juggler was there on the day we went great fun for everyone.

August 2017

Beautiful location but shame it a shingle beach and not sandy. Also very disappointed with the £8 fee to park the car .

August 2017

Perfect venue for a sunny day! Secluded beach which is clean and tidy, with a cafe, snack bar and shop, beach equipment hire too

July 2017

The cost of the parking steep

June 2017

Our family 's favourite beach

June 2017

Stunning beach, and you can get takeaway cream tea from the cafe to have on the beach!!

May 2017

A lovely little cove perfect to have a dip in the ocean. Be warned though that there is a steep downward hill to get to it and it is a rocky beach so there is plenty of slippery seaweed around. It is nice and sheltered and wasn't too busy either so a great place to get your feet wet or to go for a swim. Would recommend :-)
