Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What travellers are saying
- RachaelTiverton, UK3 contributionsFascinating tour around the 19th century foundry, including demonstrations of the water-powered hammers and other tools. Really interesting look at early industrial life on Dartmoor, with insight into the family and workers’ lives. Well worth a visit, and do take a walk round the Quaker’s’ cemetery at the back!Written 24 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Jane SLeeds, UK9 contributionsFinally reopened after being closed many years ago. Great link between Okehampton and Exeter, last time we visited it was a very expensive taxi from Exeter. Seems to be well used.Written 29 October 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Ian B3 contributionsExcellent day out on the 2 e-bikes. Extremely helpful gentleman who briefed us thoroughly on the granite way and quickly resolved a minor issue with the gents bike. Great trip to Lydford where we had a light lunch at the National Trust café. Weather not great but to whizz along on these great bikes was lots of fun. Thank you, a great day out. Very highly recommended but book ahead if you want the e-bikes as they only have 2 but I understand they are in the process of getting more.Written 22 October 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Olivia C1 contributionWe had the best day discovering some less well known parts of Dartmoor with Proper Dartmoor Tours. Our tour guide Tich Scott was entertaining and brilliant, a mine of information, with fascinating local family history, knew everyone we encountered on and off the road and such fun to spend the day with. Highly recommend!Written 24 August 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Lauren R3 contributionsWhat an amazing adventure! We met up with Keith and Jackie not really knowing what to expect and I can tell you we were far from disappointed! Keith was so helpful during booking to ensure we had the right route for our group (kids 9,11,12 and 15). The gorge walking was a lot of fun, water clean and the scenery beautiful. Keith shared so much knowledge about the route and gave the best advice to ensure we were all having fun.
Be prepared to get wet and you will fall in but it’s honestly worth it!
The whole experience felt very safe and controlled so I didn’t feel worried as the kids jumped off rocks! Would 10/10 recommend!Written 7 August 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Came across advert for the Granite Way and then found Granite Way Cycles.
We booked online for a selection of family bikes inc a tric tag -along, children’s & electric bike.
Iain was super helpful in getting us ready & giving advice. This inc changing heights, saddles etc etc
The ride itself was great, not too taxing with several cafes & pubs to stop at. Once out of Okehampton the scenery opened up & was very pleasant esp the viaduct.
No problem in recommending Granite Way Cycles & we will be returning in the futureWritten 10 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We flew in the soft evening light with views across the whole of Devon - there was a time when we could see the North and South coastlines of this stunning county at the same time. At other points we drifted along narrow river valleys with the basket just missing the highest branches in the canopy. Our pilot Allie was absolutely superb - complete mastery of the balloon's dynamics, and a wonderful commentary of the history and geography that was laid out before us.
In summary, yes its expensive, and yes you may have to be patient (or not, see above!) to get your flight but I promise you *it is worth it*.Written 22 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
