We absolutely loved Ferry House. It was all you could ever wish for as a home-from-home place to spend a fabulous Christmas week. It was warm, it was beautifully decorated, it had a lovely flow - airy & spacious while being so cosy. And the views were just fabulous. The extra touches for a Christmas week were so lovely. The off-road parking was a huge bonus. And Topsham itself was just a magical place to wander round at this time of year - all festive windows, knitted postbox toppers, street decorations, shops & bars brimming with happy revellers, & so many little winding paths & old buildings to discover. We enjoyed the pub a few doors down, a lovely walk to Lympstone, a train trip to Exeter to the Cathedral's Carol Concert, & getting all our Christmas goodies from the butcher, the greengrocer, the baker, the cheese shop & the wine shop! Thank you so much - we will definitely come back again.

My wife & I had a wonderful 1 week stay at the wonderful Ferry House, on our arrival we found we the was beautiful & clean throughout, very comfy beds & sofas in the lounge. Kitchen was very well equipped for any cooking needs with all crockery & cutlery. All and all we had a wonderful stay at Ferry House a real home from home. Fantastic place.

Dear Martin and Claire - thank you so much for the generous review. We look forward to welcoming you back to Ferry House next year.
Absolutely wonderful property - every need catered for (and then some!) Beautiful decor, off-road parking (in Topsham!) and great pub/diner just about next door - morning coffee in the bedroom overlooking the Exe. LOVED it - we'll be back! Marie and Colin
This was the perfect location for a week’s stay exploring the Exeter area. Would highly recommend
You can read these words in Chapter 1 of E.M. Forster’s A Room with a View and they perfectly apply to this house. When you wake up your eyes are filled with the morning light hanging over the river and the pastel colours of the world outside harmoniously match the microcosm of delicate, refined elegance that surrounds you. You are ready to start a new day to be spent walking or cycling along the river and listening to the many birds that live in the area. It is also very easy to reach Exeter either by train or bus. And when you go back you will find all the comforts you wish for. You may relax in the spacious living room or have fun cooking in the well equipped kitchen. My colleague and I stayed at Ferry House as teachers taking a group of Italian students to England. We couldn’t have asked for a more refreshing and cosy place after our busy days. Thank you very much, Ben, we took part of this beauty away with us but made sure to leave some for new visitors to enjoy the house and the place!
Ferry House is probably the best holiday home I've stayed in. The two things that really struck me were (1) the views are simply wonderful and (2) it is finished to a very high standard indeed (the sheets were from The White Company!) We stayed as a family of four in November 2022 and everyone loved it. The wood-burning stove meant we were warm and cosy. The house was spacious, clean and well equipped. It's conveniently located in the centre of Topsham. There's plenty to do nearby. I'd recommend cycling down the river to Exmouth and eating at Darts Farm. We can't wait to come back. Thanks Ben!
