Top Higher Knowle Hotel Reviews

The Moorland Hotel, Haytor, Devon

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful. From start to end."

The Rock Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Loved our stay at The Rock Inn, the staff were attentive and friendly and the food was excellent."

Cromwell Arms

8/10 Good

"Food was very good. Large room. Clean and comfortable. Bathroom let it down as small dark and pokey. Very very steep stairs to reach room. Plenty of parking. Outside area for sitting which was pleasant. Not bad value for money though."

Bovey Castle

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful place to stay with amazing views and lot of activities. Beautiful hikes and walking trails nearby. Would highly recommend for a family holiday. Premium stay with nice staffs."

Kestor Inn

10/10 Excellent

"."

4 bedroom accommodation in Trusham, near Newton Abbot

8/10 Good

"Pleasant upside down holiday home, with plenty of room, comfy furniture, fabulous views. Lots of peace & quiet. Local pub is a short walk - downhill there, uphill on the way home. Take a torch with you! The house does have emergency torches in most of the bedrooms, but not all working. No street lighting so star spotters are in luck. Hot tub a great addition (itâ€™s why I booked the house) but unless there are two of you, itâ€™s very difficult to get the lid off & on. The â€œwelcome basketâ€ of a cream tea was a very good choice of the owner. Owner, Sarah, was lovely in the communication we had, and I met her briefly on the morning of my departure.The information file containing maps and descriptions of local walks was very helpful. The house could do with some TLC - bannister loose, garden needs a good bit of pruning, but with the house being booked all the time getting those jobs done is tricky. If you want peace and quiet this is the spot for you."

Lovely Character Dartmoor Cottage Just Below the Famous Haytor Rocks

10/10 Excellent

"The cottage is a lovely place to stay, comfortable beds and lovely bedding. The kitchen was equipped with everything anyone would need, even picnic baskets and cooling blocks. Loads of games, movies and books and even a piano for evening entertainment… or there’s the beautiful pub and pub garden right next door… a lovely place to spend a few hours, eat, drink and take in the views. Highly recommend "

Swifts Return – Cosy Dartmoor Hideaway with Wood-Fired Hot Tub & Pool

8/10 Good

"This is a third time we stayed in the apartment. As always a lovely experience. Pool and sauna were great as well as the log burner that kept us warm and cozy in the evenings. Bed is exceptionally comfortable. Will come back again for sure. Only downside was that no one swept up tons of berries on steps and in garden so when we arrived it was extremely slippery and unsafe, so had to do it ourselves. And also no frying pan to fry bacon so had to resort to frying in a wok."
