What our Guests Say

"Highly recommend!"

"Just back from a week in the beautiful Lydgate cottage attached to the hotel, set in a stunningly beautiful, a very peaceful location. The cottage is lovely has everything you need.  John, Sarah and Kelly are very friendly, helpful and around if you need them, without being intrusive. You can order from the hotel's menu and have dinner delivered to the cottage, which was a real treat! The perfect base for exploring Dartmoor and further afield there's loads to do within 45 minutes to an hour's drive. Highly recommend!"
