This facility is absolutely stunning and very charming. We visited as part of our 36th wedding anniversary to get away from the big city atmosphere and we're so glad to have chosen this wonderful location as part of our European Holiday! WE WILL BE BACK!!

Everything! We were so sad to leave. We love travel so have stayed in some amazing hotels across the world (including other Relais & Chateaux properties), but after our stay at Gidleigh Park, we realized this might have been the BEST hotel ever - even including some very special Japanese ryokans.
What made it so wonderful:
- The staff were all so genuinely nice. We had a lot of odd requests (since I’m pregnant and my husband has very specific dietary preferences), and I’m sure they secretly thought we were total weirdos, but they did a great job covering this up - no request was too strange! Examples: 1.) my husband became addicted to Innocent smoothies during our stay in England and insisted on having some every day (…even in a Michelin-starred hotel), so they kept them in the fridge for us and brought out the bottles whenever he wanted to pour a glass; 2.) I went down each morning to have breakfast but my husband prefers to sleep in, so I would request a takeaway homemade croissant for him. This request alone wasn’t too bad perhaps, but the croissants were so good warmed up, so we would later request to have them warmed right before he ate them - which they kindly did…
- The food is SUPERB - I could’ve eaten for weeks straight just at the casual lounge (we’d normally try the formal restaurant too, but saving this for next time when I have fewer pregnancy food restrictions, to fully enjoy!). Best Eggs Benedict I’ve ever had, with perfectly poached golden-orange yolks (I’ve only ever seen such perfect eggs before in Japan), sumptuous afternoon tea, truffled cheese soufflé, really good strong pots of Earl Grey and Mini Pu Erh Cake (!) tea, amazing fresh fish and brothy beans… all in a cozy casual living room/conservatory setting where they let you open the patio doors, or sit outdoors (very nice if you’re being extra Covid-cautious while pregnant like me)!

Lovely lively little town with great amenities. Ideal location to explore Dartmoor and Devon's south coast. A nice town with a life outside tourism. The White Hart Inn is a great place to stay. A wonderful butcher shop in the town. Motor Museum worth a visit.

Good location, right on Dartmoor.
Good location, right on Dartmoor. Places to visit: Whitelady Falls, HMP Dartmoor museum, Castle Drogo and Teign Gorge. We found Highland Cows between Bennett's Cross and Warren House Inn. Still loads to see but ran out of time.

A really lovely little village.
A really lovely little village. It’s a great base for exploring the stunning local scenery. It’s well served by an eclectic mix of shops, restaurants and attractions. There’s a shoe making shop, an eco/refill outlet, a great wine and spirits shop and tasting bar together with any number of independent cafes and restaurants. And not forgetting the National Trust property at one end of the village - it’s not
Open to the public but is very photogenic!

Lovely village but roads to and from very, very narrow, so be warned if you have a large car you will find yourself reversing to a passing place on occasions, or brushing the hedge to allow others to pass. The Ring Of Bells Pub is very pleasant but was a little cold in the bar area during our stay and the menu was good but a little restricted for those who were not great meat eaters. Apart from the Church there are no other places to visit in the village itself. The parking for the Pub is opposite the Church so a bit of a walk with your luggage - especially if it is raining! The waiting staff seemed generally very young and a little untrained in menu choices, information etc. but pleasant enough.

Lovely town with reasonable choice of places to have lunch/dinner & good co-op store. Plenty of interesting walks into the surrounding countryside (info provided at Cookshayes G.H) but sometimes had to walk on minor roads.

Lovely town on the edge of Dartmoor with excellent facilities - small Co-Op as well as a greengrocer, butcher and wholefoods shop, plus a pharmacy, newsagent and information centre. Plenty of choices for food and drink - we used both the Horse and Union Inn, but there are also cafes and other places to go for food and drink. Recommended.

The entire experience was absolutely delightful. The hotel staff went above and beyond, exuding warmth and kindness at every turn. Amy at the reception was incredibly accommodating, while Alisa and Charlet expertly handled all our bookings, from arranging activities to making dining reservations. The restaurant staff were truly outstanding; they displayed remarkable patience and kindness in helping young children with their meal selections. Without a doubt, this hotel ranks among the finest we have ever had the pleasure of visiting.
It’s in a historic town with many local outlets and fantastic walks nearby. The hotel is recently refurbished, large and characterful. Needs TLC in places and maintained a bit better. Staff were generally helpful and gave us dinner in our bedroom one night!
Fell in love with this place. Beautiful pub/hotel. The room was dog friendly. Extremely large room. The restaurant was amazing. Staff fantastic. Take a walk round the amazing village, so beautiful.
Our stay was on a self catering basis. The apartment is close to the centre of Moretonhampstead, a village with a most amenities available for groceries, pharmacy and eating out.
Very clean bright and warm room. The hotel is in the centre of the town. Hosts are friendly and helpful people.
We enjoyed the welcome and the stay. Definitely recommend.
