Fox & Hounds Hotel

Lovely place on Dartmoor - excellent food and beer Really nice place - great fire, excellent food and beer. Room was just what I needed (and they surprised me with an upgrade). Staff were lovely. 12 hours solid sleep - couldn't have asked for more. Able to pre-order breakfast if wanted enabled me to have a lie in.

We live in the village, and thought we would go for a drink, the doors was open, lights were on, walked in, no one there the first time. the barmen decided to turn up and then said we are not open once we said sorry why is your door open? he replied with nothing. once open he served us. then tonight we walked in when it was meant to be open, door again was open, walked in, a group of people was there then at 5:45pm the people behind the bar said we are closed? sorry but these past landlady/guy. were terrible. i hear a rumour they are leaving. thank god! hopefully the new people who take over are alot more welcoming. these were terrible. a massive zero.

I have been visiting this pub on and off for around 40 years and staying there about once a year for the last 15. It has always been the source of great memories over these years and our last stay was no exception. There are 13 in our family aged from 4 to 62 and I wanted a pub where we could all be together that was somewhere on the western edge of the Moor. The Fox & Hounds was a great choice in terms of good food, drink (Jail Ale), accommodation, and location. All this topped by an excellent welcome from Crystal and her team, who really looked after us throughout the weekend. Sure, it wasn't posh, but then again, neither are we. Five stars awarded with no reservation.

The food ( dinner and breakfast) was beautifully cooked. The homely atmosphere was relaxing and friendly. The staff helpful and the room had everything you need and was clean and tidy. The pub also smile English and I appreciated that it retained that . Nice to have free parking outside the door.

A brilliant hotel. A really pleasant location, and a very picturesque building. We stayed for one night in August. The room was very nice, not modern, but definitely in keeping with the hotel itself. Very comfortable bed, and a nice, clean bathroom. We had dinner at the hotel, and a varied menu was available. The food was delicious, and reasonably priced. The staff were all excellent, very friendly and helpful. The breakfast menu was not as expansive as some hotels, but the full English was of a very high quality. We had a great stay, and will definitely return.

We’ve just stayed at this lovely old hotel for one night on our way to Cornwall. On booking we worried we wouldn’t arrive before closing but were assured a key would be left. Extremely friendly staff. Clean room with all you need and the most delicious breakfast. We will definitely be returning.
