We had a great experience during our 2 nights stay with our dog. The room (bigger double) was perfectly laid out with tasteful decor and a comfy bed. The housekeeping was of the highest standard and there were many thoughtful little touches like Bramley toiletries, fresh milk and shortbread biscuits in a jar. There was a group playing music in the garden on our first night and it was wonderful to see people of all ages singing along and having such a good time. The food in the restaurant and the breakfast was superb and the staff were friendly. Lydford is a great village and the gorge is 5 mins walk away. We would happily return again.

this is an absolutely wonderful hotel that provides guests lucky enough to stay there with an unrivalled 5 star experience. Our room was exquisite as were the other guest facilities and whenever we needed local information they were very knowledgeable and communicative. Its location is also special which allowed us to do so much without needing to drive. You must stay here if a room is available
