Top Higher Knowle Hotel Reviews

Kestor Inn

8/10 Good

"Good food great chef"

Cromwell Arms

8/10 Good

"Nice historic property"

The Moorland Hotel, Haytor, Devon

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at the Moorland Hotel Haytor and were very impressed from start to finish. The room was comfortable, well presented and had everything we needed, while the staff were friendly, welcoming and attentive throughout our stay. The location is fantastic, with the beautiful Dartmoor landscape right on the doorstep, making it an ideal base for exploring the area. The service was excellent and really added to the overall experience. We also had brunch during our stay, which was excellent — a great choice of food, beautifully presented and very enjoyable. Overall, a lovely hotel in a superb location with genuinely friendly service. We would happily stay here again and would definitely recommend it."

Ilsington Country House Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"There is a lot that is exceptionally good about the hotel. The staff are extremely helpful , the food and drinks of high standard and the spa area very good. The only slight downsides were poor WiFi although this seems to affect the whole village when we visited. We’d love to come back."

The Rock Inn

10/10 Excellent

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

Grade II listed cottage in the heart of Bovey Tracey with parking & garden

10/10 Excellent

"This is a lovely house in the centre of town. The kitchen is very well equipped and the arrangements in the house are comfortable. The cottage has good private outdoor space.The parking is off road but quite a tight squeeze!"

Higher Mapstone – Luxury Dartmoor Retreat with Hot Tub, Spectacular Views and Games Barn

8/10 Good

"House was absolutely lovely. My issue was with the agents. We were told off for using the hot tub, apparently we were told not to use it in some form of communication which I didn’t see. Nothing mentioned in the guest book. The listing was all about the hot tub! I repeated an issue with the lack of rubbish collection and a toilet issue no response then a sudden panicked call to ask where I was and why I hadn’t left a key. Again the agents disorgasation blamed on me! Finally I was offered a 50 discount- not yet received."

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 "

Cherry Tree Cottage

10/10 Excellent

"All the comforts of a home. A very very minor matter arises re waste disposal due to the local authority rules. Perhaps even clearer guidance could be provided? (This is not intended to be included in any published review)."
