Great pub with rooms
Turning up late, they kept the kitchen open for me and the food was excellent (and again in the morning!) History is palpable throughout but the creature comforts are well taken care of

Interesting hotel with lots of history
A warm welcome on arrival. Very fruendly landlord. Excellent food in the restaurant and a good breakfast cooked to order. Our room was spacious and clean. The only negative from me was that the mattress in the Bovey room was thin and I could feel the springs, so not the best nights sleep.

Lovely old historic property which has been decorated and furnished in an atmospheric style. Very comfortable 4-poster bed in our room. Walking guide (one of 5) was very well written and useful, got some amazing views from atop the nearby peak. The dinners were excellent and the wine choice extensive. Staff are very friendly and made us feel welcome. Very few negatives and only small improvements needed. Some staff training issues around restaurant service and housekeeping which were apologised for and didn't spoil our stay but for the price being charged we wouldn't have expected these little lapses to occur.
