A lovely very old building. Sadly what made it uncomfortable was that the building sits right on the roadside and our room was over the front door area where the traffic made it difficult to sleep. The room was small but the beds were comfortable. A heater was provided in the room as no plumbed in heating. The shower had no power but I guess this is perhaps the trade off with such an old building. The gentleman who checked us in and looked after us for breakfast was great and friendly. Super breakfast, freshly cooked and a good selection. Just a shame about its roadside location.

Lovely breakfast and excellent service. The stairs were however a big "no no" due to steepness and narrowness of steps for my disabled wife.

Our room was perfect for our stay as we wanted twin bed room and had everything needed for our over night stay. We did not stay for breakfast as we we had to travel on early next day but the tea we had in the garden was lovely. The thatched guest house was in easy access for walks & visit to Sidmouth. Thank you

wonderful, full of character, quirky, not a straight wall ceiling or floor to be found, it was like going back in time. The shared bathroom was no problem as there is also washing facilities in room. Very friendly and efficient service with excellent breakfast

I liked the old world charm of Southern Cross, and the relaxed, friendly atmosphere. The bed was comfortable, and there were some nice touches such as strawberries to put on our cereal at breakfast, home-made marmalade, and nice biscuits on the tea tray in our room. We appreciated these.

Door on the bathroom door needs to be addressed as very stiff and kept getting caught on the door frame. Shower not very powerful and took a while to reach temperature. Apart from that stay was good, bed was comfortable, room was spacious.

This is a quirky and quaint guest house with comfortable rooms and clean bathrooms. It is an old building so some floors are uneven and the stairs are steep. The staff were very helpful and the breakfast was lovely. The guest house is famous in the area for its cream teas and although we didn’t have time to stay for one, they looked delicious. We had a very comfortable night and would happily stay again.

Very old thatched roof cottage so you do not expect modern up to date facilities. A quaint quirky place to stay which we chose for that reason and were not disappointed. Nice breakfast and the guys were happy to cook whatever we wanted. Room was serviced every day with coffee etc topped up and new biscuits every day. My bed was made up when I had left too many creases in it! Friendly helpful staff who were happy to chat as were the other guests at breakfast time.

This is an 18th century property with a thatched roof that serves cream teas in the afternoon. It has lots of character and won't be for those looking for a modern place to stay. If you have mobilty issues, the steep stairs may also be a problem. However, it not all olde world, there is free internet, lots of easy parking and a breakfast menu that should have enough options to suit everyone.

Warm welcome, felt comfortable. Lovely quirky guest house with character added to the experience. Subtle servicing of the room. Breakfast was delicious with very accommodating service.

A beautiful, quiet, clean and comfortable hotel and bedroom. Loved the history of the building. Extremely weloming and friendly service. Our hosts went above and beyond. We will definitely be back and were so grateful for the wonderful care given to us. Parking on site was easy and the local pub a short walk away. Highly recommend, thoroughly enjoyed the cream tea and delicious breakfast.
