The room is very nice and located so you can’t hear the traffic on a busy road. The shower is very good pressure wise but not enough hot water to have 2 showers in a row. Love the quirkiness and the fresh milk delivered each morning, great. The towels are really nice, very clean and soft.

The paintwork in the room is quite tired. The bedding could do with updating, although clean it’s looking old and a bit frayed. The full breakfast was very tasty but a little mean on portions. The bread for toast is of a poor quality and thinly sliced. We love our thick homemade toast.

My goodness what a little gem of a find for our journey to Plymouth Port with our dog. From the moment we entered to be so professionally, courteously and kindly dealt with by ‘The Twins,’ we knew we had chosen well. The room was fabulous, with a huge bed and such a choice of refreshments. The bathroom had lots of fluffy towels and really upmarket toiletries. Our evening meal with the dog was exceptional. Then a walk around the grounds and adjoining, rather upmarket caravan site, so nice for the dog. Breakfast was just what we wanted, with a pot of tea and really good eggs. Immediately booked for our next trip.

This is our 3rd stay at the Dartmoor Halfway in. The room we booked had issues with the heating so the manager swiftly moved us to another room. The 2nd room wasn’t what has booked but I was grateful for it as it was warm and cozy. The rooms are all modern and very clean. Beds super comfortable and I had the best nights sleep. The food in the pub is amazing and it’s never dropped in its quality. Breakfast was also to a high standard. The service is great all the staff do a fantastic job! This is what we keep coming back.

This time is the first time we’ve had any issues and it was the temperature of the room. Seems the radiators had an issue.

Our room was comfortable very dog friendly as was the whole pub/Inn… The bed was comfortable and the setting was quiet and peaceful. The breakfast was also lovely and the staff were very friendly to us and little cockapoo dogs Sooty and Sweep… A special mention to Casper who was really attentive, kind and lovely especially to our little dogs.. He went out of his way to help us…. We have already booked to return!

Wonderful, friendly staff who welcomed us and our dog. The room had everything we needed, including toiletries and a good variety of refreshments with fresh milk delivered on the doorstep in the morning. The huge bed was ultra comfortable and the room was exceptionally quiet and peaceful. Pub food was delicious with a great variety and obviously popular as an eatery with locals too. Ideal location for Ashburton and surrounding areas. Highly recommended and would definitely stay here again.

Nothing. Everything was excellent!

Lovely big rooms with tea and coffee making facilities, a big, comfortable bed (my friends also said their twin room was very nice), good bathroom, nice temperature room and great breakfast. Plenty of space to hang clothes. Lots of plug sockets and USB ports by the bed and in other places. Able to turn lights on/off from bed. Fresh milk on arrival and also in the morning for our hot drinks. Very friendly staff. Lots of parking. Nice shower gel and body lotion.

Being able to park by the room would have been ideal in a more secure location (my friends had bikes on a trailer but they were ok fortunately). Shampoo and conditioner would have been ideal but no issue as decided not to wash my hair anyway due to the hairdryer not working.

Bed very comfortable, coffee and tea & water offering in the room was excellent, shower very good. Parking next to the door of the room was very good. Close proximity to Plymouth. Very pleasant welcome when we checked in. Fantastic dinner in the pub attached, homemade and tasty.

Far too many dogs in the small eating area of the pub at dinner. We didn’t have breakfast, thought the offering of £15.00 for Dartmoor breakfast was good until we were told that there was an extra charge of £3.00 for toast and then an extra charge for tea/coffee plus extra for juice. We did ask the dinner staff the evening before that this was correct and they confirmed yes.

We stayed for the weekend for 2 nights and I have to say what a lovely place Dartmoor Halfway Inn is. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Nothing is too much and really made us feel welcome. The room was excellent loads of space and immaculately clean. Bed was so comfy, and we had an excellent night's sleep. You had everything in the room that you needed. The bathroom was a good size and the shower was nice and big and lovely and hot. The grounds were well maintained and very clean. The breakfast was absolutely lovely and has a good variety. We would definitely be staying again well worth the money.

The accommodation was separate from the main building which is a restaurant/bar and was in a quiet location. Great large car park. The ensuite room is fabulous and finished at a very high level. Lots of freebies and a huge walk-in shower. It was very clean. I can't believe that I only paid £85 for a room which I would class as luxury. Very friendly and helpful staff. The food in the restaurant is very nice.

Everything was perfect.

We loved the cleanliness and privacy of rooms. The pub was right next door and modern - we were particularly impressed with the friendly staff, quality of food and willingness to accommodate dogs. We had vegans and gluten free in our group and the menu had excellent choices for all at dinner and breakfast.

We had to pay for our dog, which was not specified to us on booking. We don't mind paying extra but was only told after booking was complete.
