Built next to the 17th century inn on the banks of the Teign estuary, this accommodation offers a modern, comfortable atmosphere whether staying for business or pleasure. There has been a hostelry on the site since Roman times. It was the site of a tidal ford and travellers would arrive and wait to cross the river. The hostelry became known as the passage way across the river, and this is still reflected in its current name. There are 6 function and conference rooms, a business centre, holiday apartments and extensive car parking. A total of 90 rooms are on offer. The hotel features a lobby, bar and a restaurant.
The modern full en suite rooms are equipped with a hairdryer, television, direct dial telephone, broadband Internet connection (fee), in-house films (fee), and tea and coffee making facilities. The bathrooms are fitted with a shower and a bath.
There is a very attractive and relaxing leisure suite with a steam room, sauna and well appointed gym. The beauty salon offers a range of treatments, massages and aromatherapy (fees apply). Hele Park Golf Club is roughly 5.6 km from the hotel.
For coffee and that informal meeting, the Vue terrace and conservatory offers stunning views of the estuary. The Lightermans Restaurant offers table d'hote and an a la carte menu, making the best use of local produce. For a more informal dining experience (or as an alternative) guests can dine at the inn which offers an excellent carvery and an extensive menu from a sandwich to succulent steaks and fish.
