Really nice bear garden to relax after a long days work, great local beers. The staff are absolutely amazing, go above and beyond. I visited on a business trip, having to leave early each day at 7am, thus missing breakfast. When the bar staff heard this, they arranged for a breakfast to go for me each morning. I thought this was a great touch, couldn’t ask for anymore. The food in the restaurant was outstanding, suck an enjoyable stay. The location has such character, floorboards creak, you name it but I’d definitely recommend 100%!!!
We have used this place a couple of times for a stop off before getting the ferry in plymouth. Pleasant little town, the pub is comfortable and welcoming. We would certainly use it again.
Another fabulous stay at Cromwell Arms. We stayed in a double room, and my brothers had a twin room all with tea/coffee facilities, tv and shower room with towels and complimentary shower gel, shampoo & soaps. The bed was so comfortable and as we couldn’t open the window they had left us a fan on in the room which was so thoughtful as it was a very warm day and room was so cool. We decided to eat at the Cromwell Arms as when we stayed last year the food was very good and homemade with great quality produce. I had the Sirloin & King Prawn, husband had Katsu Chicken Curry & Rice, and my Brothers the Homemade Beefburger all delicious. So full after we couldn’t even manage a pudding which i was really looking forward to as they had my favourite Melt in the middle chocolate fondant and ice cream but will definitely leave room next time we are down which should be hopefully round beginning of June.
Breakfast in the morning was absolutely delicious. I had Eggs Benedict, and the rest had a Full English. The Cromwell Arms is a lovely friendly pub and felt very welcomed. Thanks again x
Really lovely country pub in Bovey Tracey, just within Dartmoor National Park. Friendly staff and the food is delicious. We brought our dog with us too and they were very friendly and accommodating to her and us. The room was huge and bed very comfortable. Excellent value for money.
Stayed there a few times now, whist working in Bovey Tracey. I won’t again tho.. it’s a very active pub - and the last two times I’ve stayed, it’s too noisy. Between good and busy beer garden (and stragglers after closing) and open mic nights.. it’s no good for me when I need to be up for work at 8!
Lovely people tho!!
Overall great stay. Room was nice and clean. Shower was good. Beds were comfortable. Noise was not a problem from downstairs. Segregated nicely. The bar areas were nice. Staff were friendly. The steak burger meal we had was tasty and filling and the meat was what i like to call proper. Breakfast in the morning was decent. Cooked options with all the traditional items and even added an extra egg for myself. The eggs benadict was also impressive and tasty. The confectionary options were nice too and you had everything you could expect such as cereals, pastries, yogurts and plenty of flavours for the toast to choose from. With drinks such as tea, coffee. Apple juice and orange juice. All situated in a nice cosy room away from the bar area. The children enjoyed having a go on the piano too which was lovely.
Only downside was the room was cold and didnt heat up much but this was mentioned to them with regards to a possible seal fault with the skylight that may have been letting in a little air. But as the weather was on amber alert it probably didnt help.
Food was brill inc the breakfast. Room was on top floor of the pub. Room was clean & tidy. About right for the £. Have to support these pubs as they need tyhe business rather than the National big players that are so impersonal. The staff were attentive as well.
Nice hotel in a nice town. Good that it has parking. Breakfast was also good. No problems at all with our stay. Comfortable room, quieter than might be expected next to the bar.
