We stay and eat here regularly and a warm welcome always awaits. The food Is delicious and excellent value (the fish platter, herb butter and lobster cream outstanding this weekend). Beautiful decor, cosy, friendly ambiance. Thanks for a wonderful weekend guys, we'll be back!

Went to the Dartmoor Inn and enjoyed fabulous food and service as always. There is a fine dining experience in their restaurant but with the atmosphere of a pub. I feel dismayed at the comments left on Trip Advisor and suggest they try the Dartmoor Inn Fish and Chips which are a sight to behold!! June

Ate here but did not stay overnight so cannot comment on the Accommodation. The Pub looks quite nice , and the décor is great but Customer service was a bit hit and miss, and my plate of Fish and Chips was not worth the price I paid. Luke warm, pleasant reception, waiters and waitresses were not that enchanting, not bad,... More

IAte there but didn't stay overnight. Warm and friendly welcome (the owner mentioned by the previous unimpressed reviewer wasn't there on the evening we ate )..nice pre- dinner nibbles ...very refined and impressive cooking. Portions are small but this isn't pub grub in any way . Managed 3 courses and felt elated at the overall experience. Would like to go... More

We were so looking forward to celebrating our Anniversary at the Dartmoor Inn... The greeting was polite but not warm. The food was tasty but not special (except the fillet of beef which tasted amazing). The service was extremely poor and slow even though the place was rather quiet . We had to ask for everything - candle, water, salt... More

Friends stopped here for coffee recently and noticed the winter offer of dinner, bed and breakfast for £100 so we thought we'd all give it a try. Arrived last afternoon - our large esuite rooms very swish and attractive, with indivually themed furnishings, pretty textiles, big comfy bed with proper cotton linen. (think France meets Farrow and Ball!) After a... More

We stayed in the French style room for one night £100 including a three course gorgeous meal! We went for our first anniversary and my partner had booked this as a surprise! The room was amazing big comfy bed, great bathroom with best shower ever, a classic style radio and a tv! There weren't any tea facilities but that didn't... More

We had the good fortune to find the Dartmoor Inn on the internet prior to our visit to the area. We originally booked for lunch but it proved to be so good that we also then made a second booking for dinner two days later. The food was fantastic on both occasions, both the fixed price lunch menu and also... More

We went to the Dartmoor in because we where attracted by the web site and the positive trip advisor reviews, I will start with the negatives - no kettle in the room and small and friendly, yes that's it! We absolutely loved it the food was fantastic great local produce used and slight variances every day, and the breakfast selection... More

I have eaten at the Dartmoor Inn twice this year. The first was disappointing but as my step father raves about it I thought I should give it a second go. This turned out to be equally as disappointing. The food is cooked beautifully but the portions are so small! I do not have a big appetite at all and... More
