Prior to the weekend, all requests were met with a 'can do' attitude and this carried on through out the entire weekend. Nothing was too much trouble for Richard Hassell (owner) and his... More

We stayed at the Ilsington Country House Hotel for just one night 28th May 2013. This little gem of an hotel is tucked away on the edge of Dartmoor. We inadvisedly ignored the hotels's web-sites comments about using Sat Nav and as a result followed a tortuous route along single track lanes to the hotel. But once there we were... More

We recently had a group visit here. The rooms are comfortable, the food is great and the staff were extremely helpful. Would certainly recommend this hotel. The hotel is located in lovely grounds with beautiful views of Dartmoor.

Have just returned from a weekend at Ilsington which was a reunion of 10 friends and we couldn't have had a better time. Apart from the natural beauty of the location, the hotel is comfortable and friendly, we enjoyed our time in the health club and the food was, as ever, superb. The staff can't do enough for you and... More

The hotel is situated close to a small village, surrounded by fields and within sight of Hay Tor, and about 10 minutes by car from Newton Abbot. A number of interesting National Trust properties and the Torbay resorts are all within a 30 to 45 minute drive. My wife and I stayed for 5 nights at the beginning of May,... More
