    Cannot fault staff, venue or rooms. The most relaxing weekend away I have had for a while. We were kindly upgraded to junior suite. Cost of 3 nights £1197. The room standard was so high we ordered breakfast up. I never use a hotel bath opting for a shower on this occasion the roll tap bath had me jumping in. Valet parking on site did not have any issues parking. Would love to return.

    Beautiful hotel in a wonderful Dartmoor location. Great range of dining opportunities of an excellent standard from fine dining to afternoon tea. Highly recommended for all events from casual cream tea to an evening celebration. I have been coming for as long as it has been known as Bovey Castle and continues to be one of my favourite places in Devon.

    Beautiful hotel and grounds - everything we were hoping for and more. Every staff member we encountered went above & beyond - within the hotel and on all of our booked activities. Really enjoyed all the complimentary activities dotted around as well: falconry display, bowls, croquet etc

    Had afternoon tea here for my wife's birthday. Service was great and staff very friendly and a lovely venue to take a stroll around after. Food was good but we have had better at other locations especially at the relatively high price point.

    Beautiful lodges, lovely views, stunning scenery and lots of nice art on the walls. A few things let it down, no outside furniture for sunbathing and zero furniture on the upstairs terrace which for the price is outrageous. Also the staff decided to ride a lawnmower around our outside family lunch which was very rude and inconsiderate. Another staff member left his dogs unattended in a hot car in the August sun which I had to speak to reception about. Service in the restaurant was disappointing with food turning up at different times and having to chase up items.
