Off on our hols later in the week, and looking for reccomendations on good restaurants to take the missus to!

I know the River Cottage one is nearby, but the reviews haven't been that gleaming, so wondering if anyone with local knowledge can suggest a lovely place nearby?

Many ta's in advance!

Second Coombe house, used to be owned by friends of the family, and still produces top quality food

May be a bit too far west, but La Petit Maison in Topsham - best food I have ever tasted - but quite pricey and needs to be booked as it's, er, quite small.
