Access to car park and car park itself are uneven. Staff were helpful and welcoming. Cannot comment on public areas in hotel as did not use, but reception area is small and dingy and feels very old fashioned. Room 16 (budget single)

Room was clean with plenty of amenities amd an abundance of rea making facilities. Staff were really friendly and attentive. My only criticism is that parts of thr romm/hotel were started to look a little tired. A remote control which is actually readable would also be a big help. Location is fantastic with views out to Plymouth Sound

We enjoyed our 2 night stay here and we had a very good evening meal. A little out dated but we expected that as it’s a Moorland hotel and would rather it that way. Very near to the Hotel is the Drakes bike trail and one way is Tavistock and the other is Plymouth so makes excellent place to stay if you like biking😊
