Mill End Hotel

A lovely long weekend with our extended family. The staff could not have been more helpful or understanding. The facilities at the hotel are excellent, and we enjoyed walks in the adjoining beautiful countryside. All the teams at Mill End are highly professional, ensuring a perfect and memorable experience.

An absolutely beautiful hotel set in a slice rural of heaven. We received a very warm welcome and excellent service from all staff throughout our stay. Our room was very comfortable- huge appreciation for the homemade shortbread after a long day of walking and exploring Castle Drogo and the surrounding area. Lovely selection of toiletries to use for that little touch of luxury. The food was exemplary! Outstanding quality and a great selection to choose from. We were sad to only be staying for one night as there was so much on the menu we wanted to try!

3rd time we've been to Mill End and 2nd time this year! Once again it didn't dissapoint! As it was the 2nd time this year we opted for a slightly cheaper room which was Lyd, it was very cosy, and a little small for our liking, however it was decorated beautifully and it is called a 'small double' so we had anticipated it being small! One of the main reasons we keep coming back is the food and again it didn't dissapoint! We stayed two nights and it was a different menu each night and also different butters and amuse bouche! Lord knows how they manage to change all that over two nights! We really do love it hear so have already booked two stays for next year!

Well where do I start. One big disappointment and a lackluster food offering. (We even phoned prior to booking to check that there would be vegan options.) On arriving, being given a menu and then being told to "order whatever you want from there as the chef can accommodate", which sounded a baffling prospect with 3/4 dishes are full meat affairs and so after querying the confusing suggestion, and the options are only the veggie one but without the diary element. To then be given a non vegan amuse bouche that was only discovered by having check if it was suitable, and hard split peas for a dhal. The meat options have been craftfully selected to showcase local produce. The veggie option appears to just be on there to appease the non meat eaters, with the typical remove items to be a vegan alternative being a lower rate option. An oil saturated crouton to accompany the soup and undercooked legumes. If you must. Spending £100 on 2 unsatisfactory courses, one glass of wine and the 10% service charge is the final kick in the teeth for such an under par meal. If you eat meat, then I can see why it has such a positive rating. If you don't, then I'd ask for another bread board over the actual menu item. Otherwise you're left feeling massively underwhelmed and overcharged. Scored 2 based on my partner's meal. Based solely on the vegan experience and it wouldn't score. Especially when being served non vegan food

Revisited this gorgeous hotel as a birthday treat in the newly renovated Teign suite, which was stunning! So many beautiful touches, and were blown away again by restaurant thanks to the 5 star service and incredible fine dining food. You just can’t beat this place for quality and location!

Great location on Dartmoor, next to a stream and close to the lovely town of Chagford and the fabulous Castle Drogo. Decor in hotel sitting room is dark and drab, most uninviting, as was our room. Not impressed with regimented arrangement for meals - choose a time (if available), wait to be shown to a table: why, when dining room has several empty tables from which to choose?! Food, however, is excellent and the staff are friendly and efficient.
