We enjoyed our 2 night stay here and we had a very good evening meal. A little out dated but we expected that as it’s a Moorland hotel and would rather it that way. Very near to the Hotel is the Drakes bike trail and one way is Tavistock and the other is Plymouth so makes excellent place to stay if you like biking😊
