The stay was good. The pub was clean, the staff really friendly and the food was good too. But I'm not sure about putting guests in the top floor rooms with only a fan! The rooms were unbearably hot. The fan did nothing and the only time the room cooled was the early hours of the morning. Not good!
Nice sizeable and comfortable room. Unfortunately it was quite hot due to it being on the second floor and after a string of hotter than usual days, not helped by the fact that the heated towel rail (from the hot water system) couldn't be shut off.
But a great old pub to stay in all the same. We had a lovely meal in the restaurant.
Nice stay, exactly what we wanted, good food, & cooked breakfasts, place was very friendly staff were really friendly polite rooms were very nice & good size, excellent

The woman at reception was very friendly and nice.
The staff were very welcoming and friendly.We had an evening meal which was really lovely and tasty and plenty of it .Our room was very clean and big enough for us,you can hear the traffic and people outside when going past as our room was by the entrance to the carpark but it was ok.Breakfast was a choice of tea,coffee,3 juices,pastries,yoghurt,cereals, toast,jam,marmalade,full english,eggs benedict so a great selection.Overall ill give our stay 10/10
Breakfast options were help yourself to cereal, yoghurt, toast, pastries, juice, tea and coffee. Hot options were full English, vegetarian alternative, eggs Benedict, toast with scrambled eggs, sausage or bacon sandwich or porridge. Our household had the full English and it was delicious, especially the scrambled eggs.
Very pet-friendly, most guests had dogs with them. Staff were helpful and friendly. The only fault we had with our room was the window being stuck open, which made it hard to sleep when the beer garden was full of loud guests. This was only really an issue as we had children with us.
We spent 4 nights and had a family room. Staff were very friendly and attentive. Food was very good and breakfast excellent with plenty of choice. No problem parking. An ideal base to explore Dartmoor.
Perfect location for a hike in Dartmoor. Authentic coaching inn. Delicious food. Lovely staff. Hope to return in a few years since itβs a continent away from home.
