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

“Attractive location”

Reviewed May 10, 2013

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
