Reviews and Ratings
This hotel offers a fantastic escape in the beautiful North Devon countryside, with spacious and comfortable accommodations perfect for families. The owners, Mark and Desi, create a warm and welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The breakfast is a highlight, with delicious, high-quality options available. While the Wi-Fi is reliable, the location requires some driving to reach broader attractions, but that just adds to the charm of the peaceful surroundings.
I had an incredible stay at this charming hotel nestled in the North Devon countryside. The atmosphere was so peaceful and inviting, thanks to the exceptional hospitality from Desi and Mark, who made us feel right at home. The breakfast was delicious, especially the full English, which I highly recommend. However, be prepared to travel for dinners as nearby options can get busy during peak times. Overall, the hotel is a fantastic base for exploring the beautiful surroundings.
I had an absolutely delightful stay at Moorlands, where I was captivated by the stunning gardens and the warmth of the hosts, Mark and Desi. My family and I occupied two spacious apartments that had everything we could possibly need. The breakfast was a highlight, fresh and delicious, setting us up for our explorations nearby. However, we did encounter some dampness in the rooms during our stay and a lack of mid-stay service, which was a bit of a letdown. Overall, it’s a hidden gem that I would love to return to!
Our stay at the hotel was absolutely delightful, marked by exceptional hospitality and stunning surroundings. The rooms were immaculate and offered everything one could need for a comfortable stay. We especially loved the breakfast, which was cooked to perfection with top-notch ingredients. The location provided a peaceful retreat and convenient access to local attractions. However, the dining options outside of breakfast were somewhat limited. Overall, great value for money!
Our stay at the hotel was truly delightful, from the spacious and clean accommodations to the lovely outdoor space that felt like a peaceful retreat. The owners, Mark and Desi, made us feel right at home with their warm hospitality. The breakfast was excellent, offering a delicious selection that kept us fueled for our outdoor adventures. While the location was beautiful, it is quite remote, requiring a car for access to nearby attractions, which might be a consideration for some guests.
