Overall, a 'must stay' hotel with warm staff and excellent offerings.
The hotel offers clean and comfy rooms with nice touches like soft robes and complimentary refreshments. The staff is incredibly friendly and obliging, making the stay fabulous, although the rooms could use a bit more space. The location is truly picturesque on the moor, perfect for exploring the area, yet conveniently close to local attractions. The dining experience is enjoyable, especially for light meals. Overall, a great value for the money.
The hotel is set within the National Park of Dartmoor, offering wonderful views across the moors. The rooms were very comfortable and had everything we needed, with private access to the garden. The staff are all very helpful and pleasant, making our stay memorable. The dining experience was varied and delicious, adding to the overall enjoyment of the stay.
The hotel provided a lovely stay with everything needed, including a basket of fruit, although rooms are always so much more expensive. The service was outstanding, bright, and friendly. The location couldn't be better, right on the moor and across from Haytor. The dining experience offered a hot cooked meal along with an optional continental buffet, although it was not very good. The facilities were well-equipped and comfortable.
My stay at the hotel was lovely, with clean, comfy rooms and friendly staff. However, the dining experience fell short with limited options. The location was fantastic, nestled within the National Park of Dartmoor. The facilities, although lacking air conditioning, were nice with good amenities.
