I have recently returned from a four day group walking holiday based at the Moorlands Hotel. This was my first HF Holiday and I was very impressed. As other writers have said, the position of the Hotel is right on the moor. Our bedroom was on the first floor and was spacious and comfortable with a good en suite bathroom.... More

We stayed here as part of an organised HF holiday group and loved it. We went walking whilst our daughter attended a really well organised multi activity week which included canoeing, rock climbing and body boarding amongst other things. Food really great and plenty of it. All the staff really helpful and the entertainment really good. We enjoyed a falconry... More

I stayed here on a short walking holiday with HF Holidays, who own the property. I felt the room was better than the other HF property I stayed at in the Lake District. The common rooms were very smart and the food served was good. One minor grumble was that internet access was very slow. The hotel is between Bovey... More

beautiful location and I mean, truly stunning. We arrived at what seems the back of the Hotel, parked, entered and found our room key on the sideboard. No sign of a Reception or Receptionist. We asked another guest where the rooms were (it wasn't signed at all) and went up to our room (34). The room is very dated and... More

Heavenly location right on the moor - just cross the lane to walk right over the hills! Simple, clean, comfortable rooms, house and gardens redolent of the 20s and 30s. Very good breakfast, and cafe on site. Warm. Staff could not do enough, friendly and helpful.

Obviously set up for walking holiday parties, this hotel is located by Haytor just on the edge of Dartmoor and an ideal location to explore the area. Room was a bit small and bathroom a little retro, but great views out across the grounds, friendly staff, free umbrellas to borrow and all the wax dubbing for your walking boots you'd... More

Stayed here on a walking holiday for 4 nights. The place is located perfect for this. The staff and manager esp go out of their way to make your stay perfect. The rooms are spacious and clean and the food is wonderful. Would recomend if looking to stay in Dartmoor just for the grounds and surrounding area.

We stayed for a friends wedding and we pleasantly surprised at the beautiful grounds. The gardens are lovely! Unfortunately the same cannot be said for the rooms. The hotel inside is a mix of old and new with a really dated interior. The rooms downstairs are large and perfect for a wedding and there is two bars and a nice... More
