We just stayed here for one night, in March 2013. We were greeted with a freshly made cream tea - with the best scones I've ever tasted, (but don't tell my Mum), had a lovely spacious room (Dipper), and an amazing breakfast. We could have eaten our evening meal at the hotel, but despite the amazing looking menu which was... More

I stayed in this hotel during March 2013. It was a lovely warm hotel with amazing views of Dartmoor. The room was very nice - named Kingfisher - and the view over the valley and the river was superb! The breakfast was extremely good. The setting was in the conservatory which again looked out over the valley. It is a... More

We stayed at Lydgate house a couple of summers ago when Doug and Anna were running it and had a lovely time. This time we thought we'd just pop down for a night to recover from New Year celebrations, and to see how it had fared under new ownership. We weren't disappointed, even though we were the only guests that... More

I had been here before and had fond memories, but there has been a change of ownership, and the new owner is not very friendly, in fact his mood really spoilt our stay. The food was really special, truly there is a very talented chef in the kitchen, but I fear their hard work is being undone by the front... More

We stayed at Lydgate House for two nights in October and used it as a base for some ambling in Dartmoor. The hotel is very comfortable, with a lounge for guest use and small bar which is open in the evening. The complementary cream tea was most welcome when we arrived! Although a pre-bookable three course evening meal is available... More

We (and our dog!) stayed one night in the Dipper room during a lucky super sunny September break. On arrival we were offered a complimentary cream tea out on the terrace which was absolutely fantastic. The room was spotlessly clean and filled with complimentary amenities and had a seperate little quaint "tea room" which was lovely. The location couldn't be... More

This is a super hotel. Very welcoming. Spotless throughout. Excellent three course dinner with fresh, local ingredients and one of the best breakfasts we have ever had. Will definitely be returning and already recommended to friends.

Away on a short break with no previous plans and we found this delightful place by chance and luckily a room was free. Clean, nicely decorated with thoughtful touches and a fantastic shower - we loved our room which had lovely views of the East Dart River and the valley. Excellent three course dinner and amazing breakfast. Our hosts were... More

We had a beautiful room, with a magnificant en-suite. The views from the window simply stunning. Breakfast was a real treat, and dinner well worth the money. Service at every level was friendly and professional in equal measure. I would be more than happy to return.
