Fox & Hounds Hotel

Staff were very welcoming and helpful, a nice stay and hoping to go back again next time I'm working in the area. Quality of Wifi was pretty bad unfortunately.. but that was the only opportunity for improvement i thought.. everything else was spot on. Oh.. the steak pie was delicious.. I had it 3 times.. More pastry would make it perfect in my eyes.

Warm welcome, nothing too much trouble, reasonably priced food which was delicious!. Staff very friendly. They also have a caravan park out the back so will definitely be back in the summer with our camper to walk the moors and enjoy more lovely food!

Brilliant experience, excellent value and exactly what we were looking for. The most dog friendly place we've ever stayed at, the staff were brilliant, accommodation topnotch and breakfast really done well. We stayed for two nights supporting the Ten Tors event and will definitely come again if the opportunity arises.

Easy to find. Needs a bit of updating. Staff friendly good food at night breakfast was filling and nice. Handy for the gorge very close by, and the pub with the highway theme.

We stayed at The Fox and Hounds in September 2023. Booked via a popular booking site, we paid £75 for B&B for 1 night, double room with shared bathroom. Upon arrival we parked up in the car park next to the pub. Plenty of spaces available. Warm welcome by the landlord as we entered and were checked in quickly and efficiently. A warning about low beams was given (it’s a very old property!) and we found our way to the room up some narrow stairs (and the low beam). Room was pretty small but functional, with a double bed, wardrobe and kettle. Tea and coffee but no decaf or biscuits. Turned on the tiny TV and no channels picked up, even with retune. Mentioned this to the landlord but he didn’t seem too concerned. Also the WiFi code provided didn’t work and with very little mobile signal it was difficult to keep in touch with family. The shared bathroom was functional but very dated too. On a positive note, we went down to the bar for food and drink. Drinks were very reasonably priced and food was delicious, served quickly and efficiently. Breakfast the next morning was also well presented, with different size portions available to suit appetites. Check out was quick and easy too, everything paid in advance. We left with mixed feelings. Great food but let down by tired room and a lack of care for the facilities. If you’re looking for a simple accommodation on Dartmoor then this hotel is great, but if wanting more comforts then maybe look to pay a little more at an alternative venue.

Really lovely hotel. Family run. Excellent dining & service.

This pub has proved itself to be great value not just monetary value. It is so friendly the food was amazing. We had done a cycle ride and used it as a stop over so we could enjoy Lydford and Bretor the next day. No it’s not modern but it is very clean, the warm shower was welcome after our adventure. Breakfast was included in price and excellent.

Room very clean and beds comfortable. Evening meal was very tasty and the homemade Chicken Liver Pate is the best i have ever had, will have 2 next time. Breakfast was very filling and again tasty. Tea and Coffee was good as well, no nasty bitter taste to the coffee.

This should be a 0 star the electrics are that bad they would not have a required certificate to pass it place filthy dirty socks left in wardrobe dirt on top of ever filthy NO HOT WATER spiders on bath the noise from people playing pool underneath went on till 11.30 sounded like they where next to you paid for 2 nights only stayed 1 didn’t have breakfast that we paid for as the place was so disgusting you would probably get food poisoning definitely one that should NOT be on hotels .com
