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.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Beautiful view, very helpful staff and a good lunch. If in a large car take care swinging into the car park - but if you've got this far, should be no problem! Scoriton or Scorriton? Locals disagree, and so do the signs at either end...of the hamlet... Latter is usual online. Well worth a visit if exploring moor or Buckfastleigh area.More

Our third and fourth visits last week to this lovely authentic local. This is a proper pub, full of locals, visitors and their dogs. Good wholesome grub, tasty beer and friendly service. The burger was superb. Will be back next year. Thanks Kevin & Suzanne.

Stayed before. Again, an excellent visit. Superb food, drinks. Very friendly and welcoming. Our dog loved it and was very upset to leave (as we were)! Can’t wait to return. Will always be our first choice. Awesome. Thanks Kevin, Suzi and Saffie xx (K, J...and Hagrid 😃)More

We stayed whilst walking the Two Moors. Arriving early evening after a long days walking we sat in the lovely garden in the sunshine unwinding with a well deserved drink. Nice welcoming chats at the bar, dinner was delicious, our room was spotless and very...comfortable, breakfast the next morning great too as were our packed lunches we were sent off with. All in all a perfect nights stay. Thank you!More

Lovely hidden pub. Very quiet and lovely views. The food was fantastic, good solid pub food. Not over priced. The children’s meals were great too, my son loved his ham, (especially the) egg and chips. Would visit again.
