The location is fabulous. Walk up the road a few hundred metres and you are on Dartmoor. Magical.
It has a cosy feel. Bar and restaurant both lovely. Food was great too.

The location was perfect, very convenient for all local shops and transport. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was spotlessly clean and comfortable.

The Moorland Hotel is a fantastic place to stay with a dog, as the ground floor rooms lead straight into the beautiful gardens through French windows. Plus Hay Tor is just across the road. Really lovely place, clean room, helpful features for dog owners like outdoor cleaning and towels. We loved it!

The staff is extremely welcoming and helpful. The hotel is 4 star, however the staff there are a lot better than some of the 5 star hotels. I would like to specially thank Cameron, with his very professional and warm manner for serving.

The location was perfect with easy access to the moors and Tors.There was plenty of storage space to keep clothes etc. The kitchen was superb and well appointed with plenty of pans for cooking and crockery. The bedrooms were a bit dark because of foliage growing across the windows.Would have liked a shelf to keep toiletries in the bathroom.Perhaps a bbq would have been good to have in the garden.

A quiet village off the beaten track but only a short distance from the trunk road (A38) through South Devon.
We dined in the Hotel. Superb walking on Dartmoor : the big Hay Tor granite outcrop is only 40 minutes on foot uphill from our quarters in the Rock Inn, or ten minutes drive plus 30 minutes walk if you are starting from the village.

Small village with few shops. The Indian restaurant was very good.
Accessible to lovely countryside walks from the village. National Trust Parke on the edge of the village follows the river with plenty of walks.
Situated on the outskirts of Dartmoor which offers wonderful scenery and plenty of Tors to hike.

What a lovely little town.
What a lovely little town. We walked around and found the most wonderful art gallery that had local artists displays and beautiful work of all kinds. The people were lovely all over and the town itself is very picturesque and easy to get around. Lovely cheese shop and little boutiques to keep busy visiting. Loved it!

We were a small group of walkers staying at The Dolphin for a few days, It turned out to be an excellent choice! Plenty of parking space (even for one of our number who arrived in a motor-home) and a very warm welcome. The rooms were clean, comfortable & recently refurbished especially the en-suites which were immaculate & appeared to be brand new. Tea & Coffee was provided in our rooms & fresh milk & drinking water was thoughtfully placed in a fridge on the landing. We all slept well after an excellent evening meal from the extensive menu followed by drinks in the bar.
Breakfast was served at sensible times, cereals & fruit juice followed by freshly cooked choices from the breakfast menu. All the staff were polite, helpful and cheerful. Nothing was too much trouble, all in all a superb small hotel with good facilities at reasonable cost located at the Gateway to Dartmoor which deserves every success.

As it says On the edge of Dartmoor, Bovey Tracey has a nice park that connects into a national trust park that has a nice circular walk this a nice café stop on the way for refreshments. the Bell inn id the best of the two pubs in the town and the Brookside café does a nice breakfast
Lovely sharing the field with the alpacas. All very peaceful and secure so children can go off on their own to explore and find the chickens and play area. Thoughtfully equipped. Recommend the well marked circular ‘Ant Trail’ through nature reserves at the end of the lane (also route to the pub and the children’s playground at Chudleigh Knighton). A short drive to Stover Cycle Path - to Bovey Tracey Swimming Pool or to Newton Abbot. Many thanks Josh.
We were visiting family in the Bovey Tracey area so the location was great for us. We also got a chance to explore some old haunts on Dartmoor. Although quite small, Cobb Cottage was warm, cosy, comfortable, well equipped and perfect for a couple for a short stay. It has stunning views across the Vale of Bovey and towards the east Dartmoor tors. We had everything we needed except maybe a TV. Great hosts. Would definitely stay again.
Thankyou for all of the extra touches that made our stay very homely. Real milk in a fridge, local and dartmoor information (mini library) to view, large comfy bed and room, very quiet, lovely breakfast, parking, mini reads bedside the bed for your stay, nice teas and coffees ..if we could have picked up this hotel to travel along with us it would have been wonderful.
The Cromwell Arms is in a great location for exploring Dartmoor. Our room was on the top floor and was huge and really comfy. A very generous, and delicious, breakfast was included. We also ate dinner here - good food and reasonably priced. All staff were really friendly and happy to help with anything we needed. Will definitely stay here again!
Great location with delightful views. Hosts couldn’t have been more helpful during our long stay. Quick (steep) route into town for shopping. Bovey Tracey is a great base for Dartmoor and the coast.
Bovey Tracey has a reasonable range of (non-foodie) dining and great shopping options including butcher, greengrocer, deli and cheese shop.
Brilliant location, very helpful friendly staff, comfy spacious bedroom and delicious food! I would be happy to recommend this hotel to others. From here we explored all over Dartmoor, drove to Plymouth (40 mins) and Torquay (30 mins) the location is excellent. And at night it was so peaceful!
Large room, hot water, free on site parking. Excellent central location in Bovey Tracey.
Recommend woodland walk in Parke (1/4m up the river) or family cycle ride along the old Wray valley line to Moretonhampstead (7m one way).
The breakfast and optional booking for dinner was delicious. The staff were friendly and took an interest in where you had visited or were visiting. The hotel full of character in keeping with previously being a school.
Staff are very pleasant and helpful. The linen was clean. The toilet had been cleaned. I am sure some rooms in the hotel have been refurbished but not this one.
