Truly excellent
This is a truly fabulous hotel with the level of service second to none. We were made to feel special from the time we arrived to the moment we left. The staff are exceptionally friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them. The little personal touches that they did made the whole stay truly magical. To putting up birthday banners as they were aware it was a birthday trip to the candle in the morning in our weetabix. The food was also top quality and the whole experience was excellent. We would definitely recommend this hotel and will hopefully have another stay there in the future.

The hotel is a wonderful old building with lots of quaint features. It was quiet and friendly. Staff were amazing and very helpful. Lots of places to visit nearby. Gardens are beautiful and have lots of outdoor seating for use. I will definitely be going back to the Edgemoore for another holiday. I loved it there. Highly recommended!!

Great find tucked away in a quiet scenic location
Great find tucked away in a quiet scenic location. Very welcoming reception from staff who also gave attentive service. Excellent restaurant providing a good varied choice of dishes all cooked and presented to a high standard. Breakfast also just right for the day ahead. Room was comfortable and well appointed and we had a good nights sleep. Overall a well run family hotel, which we would recommend without hesitation and look forward to staying again. A*

One night stay thankfully
It’s not very often I review poorly across the board as there is alway something I find to my liking but sadly not here from the ripped curtains in the hallway the smelly carpets throughout and the abundance of cob webs hanging from the ceiling I was left to contemplate the dinner which again I would score a poor 0 I question how so much on a table of four could go so wrong from the poor service with no wine menu being offered till desert the speed as to which the food come and went which was marathon in feel certainly not a relaxed experience for any of our party! From starter with food not cooked and prepared as advertised on the menu to chewy meat that had no business being sold to anyone bones in fish and a lamb dish which was not edible can’t bring myself to talk about the pudding breakfast was ok ish loved the really friendly waitress and it was the only time during our stay that we felt welcome it was a beautiful building and in the right hands could be amazing but as it is I will not be recommending this hotel to anyone and at the cost of nearly £300 for the one night they should be ashamed

I travel a lot for work. Didn’t expect much from this 3 star hotel but it was way better than most. Superior room turned out to be a suite with four-poster. Lovely grounds, friendly, local staff a very quiet night and great breakfast. I will definitely be back.

I booked my lads into this hotel and they came back with excellent comments. All said they would definitely stay again when working in the area, bedrooms were lovely, food was plentiful and service was the best they have had in a long time. That makes me happy as I book all their rooms across the country and its nice to find they like the hotels I choose for them.

Dog friendly rooms
Stayed for 3 nights with my daughter and our greyhound. It's our second stay and the welcome is excellent. Facilities for dogs is fantastic and all are made very welcome inside the hotel with a separate garden just for dogs by the rooms. Great breakfasts, cooked well and served quickly. Staff very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend.

I have nothing bad to say about this hotel, I cannot fault the food, the room and the staff. I would recommend this hotel although cannot say anything for the surrounding area as I arrived at night and went off to work the next day but I've heard it's lovely in the summer, looking forward to visiting again then!

An attractive building with lovely gardens. We had two rooms ( we were asked to change rooms to accommodate guests for a wedding) the first one frankly was very small,with insufficient storage facilities and noisy. The second room was completely different being more modern,roomy with excellent facilities. The food was excellent as were the staff. We would happily recommend the hotel provided the accommodation was in the newer section.

Nice little hotel in lovely Devon countryside.
This is a wonderful little hotel in a nice setting on the edge of Dartmoor. It is an extremely well-run place with a wonderful staff and really delicious meals, the breakfasts were sooooo good. The rooms were a decent size, some are bigger than others and there was good central heating and always hot water for baths or showers. The parking was convenient and with plenty of spaces. We all enjoyed our stay and will certainly return when possible. It should be noted that the place was built back in the 1890's and so there are things to be replaced but the owners are always looking to improve things. I would certainly give it a 5 rating.

Nice hotel, although a little pricey.Some parts of the hotel could certainly benefit from some repainting. The bedroom was comfortable and big. The meal in the restaurant was very nice with good service
