Newton Abbot Hotels with Gym

What a find this hotel was! Situated on the southern edge of the Dartmoor National Park and a short drive from the A38, you really are in the middle of nowhere here. The public rooms are all very comfortable and modern but with that homely, country house hotel feel. Our bedroom was lovely; clean and with the most luxurious bed and bedding. The bathroom had been recently updated and the the views over Dartmoor were to die for. The food was quite simply, stunning. We were spoilt for choice and had trouble each evening deciding what to chose. The quality of the produce was a standout but the execution and presentation was beautifully done. The spa was the icing on the cake: a decent size swimming pool, lovely sauna and steam room and one of the biggest and best jacuzzis we have ever been in, complete with water jets and areas you can actually lie in. The hotel offers a selection of treatments reasonably priced with 10% off for guests. We sampled two and both were fabulous! From the welcome on our arrival to our departure, the service was super warm, friendly and professional. Everyone we met deserves a mention, so thank you to: George, Imogen, Dave (thanks for the tips on where to go and how to best get there!), Tom (we loved the banter!), Hollie (spelt correctly!), Mike, Sheila and Emma (good luck with the driving lessons!). We will certainly return. In fact we are already planning visit number 2!

The hotel is in a very picturesque location, overlooking a lake. The bedrooms are large, with comfortable beds and prices for a stay are very reasonable. Having said that, the completely uncalled for surly, unfriendly and distinctly unhelpful of one member of staff at reception when we returned to the hotel after going to the Newton Abbot races soured the overnight stay for our group of 7. Firstly, after serving drinks to two members of our group, who arrived at the hotel ahead of the rest of us, he didn't allow them to take the drinks outside to a veranda area so they could have a smoke and could provide no good reason for refusing the polite request. Secondly, when the rest of us arrived at the hotel at around 11.30pm the bar was shut and he refused to serve us any drinks, even though we asked politely, merely wanting one more drink before going to bed. He was also curt, rude and distinctly unhelpful when we asked him to point us in the direction of our rooms, giving one word answers and seeming to regard us all as a hindrance to him. All in all, this experience made us regret our choice of hotel and we are disinclined to return to the hotel in future. A further gripe was that the breakfast service was poor and slow, with cooked breakfasts taking 25 minutes to arrive and many key items missing and not replenished unless guests specifically asked, including cups, tea bags, sugar and orange juice,
