The hotel is situated in a stunning historical location, with the Abbey boasting over a thousand years of history. Despite its ancient surroundings, the hotel offers modern services and comforts of the 21st century. There is ample car parking available, including electric charging stations. The reception staff provided a warm and inviting greeting, and the online check-in process made our arrival seamless.
Our room, number 117, had a balcony with a spectacular view of the Abbey. The bed was extremely comfortable, and the shower was perfect for soothing aching muscles. Breakfast was plentiful and served buffet-style, allowing guests to help themselves. Dinner catered to all tastes, and the young man serving ensured everything was perfect.
A particularly memorable experience was visiting the Abbey at 6 pm on a dark November night. We had the unique opportunity to listen to the organist practicing for an upcoming concert, with only the two of us in the audience. It was a deeply moving experience, evoking the Abbey's thousand years of Evening Song.
Set in Buckfastleigh, Furzeleigh Mill Inn has a restaurant, bar, garden, and free WiFi throughout the property. Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with a terrace.

We received a warm welcome, with the room being all we required for a one night stay. The room was very comfortable and warm, which allowed for a good night's sleep. The hotel is in a quiet location which also allows you to relax.
We dined in and although it was Gin Night, which we were not aware of at the time of booking, where it was very busy, we still were able to have a delicious meal and the quality of service did not diminish due to the numbers in the restaurant.
The cooked breakfast was excellent and set us up beautifully for the day.
On the edge of Dartmoor National Park, The Dartbridge Inn is situated just off the A38 road. The traditional inn has a leafy terrace, open fires and a traditional restaurant.

Lovely breakfast, freshly cooked to order with a large choice. Very friendly and helpful hosts - thank-you :-)
Excellent, super friendly staff. Lovely & quite. Great location. Good breakfast. Spotless in all areas. Very comfortable. Would have been nice if the lights in the room were a bit brighter & there was some control over the heating. It was just little on the cold side for us in November. We would definitely stay again though.

Whenever we pass through this area we stop at the abbey. It's beautiful architecture, amazing stained glass and has a good refectorary. The grounds are lovely to walk around and we particularly like the herb garden. We love the area around it and there are nearby craft galleries and beautiful countryside. So it was good to stay here overnight and have a bit more time.

Loved just about everything about Buckfastleigh and Bossell cottage from the helpful info provided by host to lovely outdoor setting in backyard, to fabulous food at the recommended pubs and restaurants, great local shop, heaps of attractions to visit.
Only one thing could be improved - lounge could do with a bit of tightening to make it a firmer seat.

We only had a flying visit so only visited the Abbey which is a lovely tranquil place to meander around. There's a little gift shop and monastic centre to learn about the st Benedictine monks, a few places to eat within the grounds and of course the beautiful Abbey and it's interesting history.

Gorgeous corner of hilly south Devon, with a Steam Railway, lovely walks, views, nature, and easy access to other interesting parts of Devon. We ate at my parents' flat in a nearby village - we always make supper for them (they are elderly). But the menu at Furzeleigh Mill looked delicious. When we next visit (and I am sure we will return) I will book a larger room, simply because our dog is huge.

Our stay was a very pleasant experience in this hotel, with friendly staff always willing to help. The restaurant served excellent food, although we only sampled one evening meal, and the breakfast options were varied and seemed to cater for most tastes - even the toaster was quick and efficient!
Being quite near to the Devon Expressway the hotel is easy to get to by car, but not sure about public transport. The availability of overnight car charging is a bonus, although there is a very good charging centre 2 minutes away.
The hotel is very clean and the rooms are well looked after and very comfortable.
I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a nice place to spend time in this area of Devon.

We stayed in a superior guest room which was very comfortable and spottlessly clean. The room was on the first floor and had a balcony and table and chairs and lovely views over the abbey grounds and the hill beyond. Excellent breakfasts were served in the hotel restaurant. All the staff were friendly and helpful.
The location of the hotel, the hotel itself and most of the staff were good. My room was wonderful. For these reasons, I will go back. But, as you will read below, significant improvements need to be made in the way that this hotel is run. I would like at least a partial refund.
I had a great say in this hotel. The place and the terrace are absolutely lovely, all details in the room show the care with which it was designed, the food was excellent, and the owners and staff were very kind.
The Dartbridge Inn is a good looking property, with good sized bedrooms, bar and restaurant, close to the village of Buckfastleigh, and Abbey. Short step from M5 motorway.
Mill Cottage is a lovely place in the centre of Buckfastleigh. Comfortable and cosy. It was convenient for everything we needed to do whilst in the area.
