Lydford is a small village just off the A386 to the west of Dartmoor and south of Okehampton. Probably most famous for the Lydford gorge but the village itself has other attraction including Lydford Castle which is actually an old courthouse and prison and mounds from the Saxon town. There is also an ancient spring and numerous footpaths. It has a traditional village pub and there is a nearby farm shop. From the village it's possible to see and easily reach the moor with its Tors and ancient settlements, stone rows etc:

Lydford Gorge is a wonderful walk,(National Trust) challenging for some, in parts, with narrow slippery paths, hand rails provided where necessary. Not difficult, but care must be taken at all times when near the river.
The Castle Inn very good food and service.

Lydford and the surrounding areas have much to offer those who have never been before and those like myself who have either been before or worked in the area. Churchyards with interesting churchyards, monuments, Lydford Gorge. The space of Dartmoor for peaceful thoughts. Life is far too busy these days, lose yourself within this part of the country. You will return home feeling refreshed from visiting here...and have the need of a return.

The place was beautiful, and well worth going. The waterfall itself is huge and the walk around the trust is easy going and relaxing. Well worth going to the bird hide if you've got the time too :)

A epic quest through the gorge.
A epic quest through the gorge. Just enough adventure - well cared for paths, obvious routes, a map, but also challenging terrain, interesting nooks to explore and incredible scenery. Speak to the folks at the desk as they will give you tips. The devil's cauldron was shut due to off season renovation, so next time we go I'd like to see that - will definitely be back!
We had a lovely stay at the Dartmoor Inn . The room was lovely with a spacious en-suite , very comfortable. The breakfast was excellent , with a good choice , quality products and truly set you up for the day . We stayed 3 nights and the inn is well located to explore the surrounding area., Lydford Gorge just a short drive away as well as a further couple of other National Trust properties . The Inn’s restaurant opened from Wednesday for dinner and a nice selection on the menu , the dinner was delicious.
The location in the centre of Lydford was great. Parking was directly opposite the property and access to the moors is simple. The property is self contained with a wood burning stove and this was already laid on arrival and ready to light. From the windows the moors are visible. If the weather had been better we had garden we could use. Lydford itself is a beautiful village with a lot of history and the wonderful Lydford Gorge is nearby within walking distance.
This was a beautiful hotel. The decor throughout was just lovely and it felt welcoming. For breakfast there was a good choice of food available and it tasted wonderful. The service was brilliant and the young lady who served us was so polite and helpful. We had a meal at one of the local pubs - The Castle - and the food there was delicious and again very good service by all the staff we had dealings with.
We enjoyed the peaceful and beautiful setting of the Linhay and its proximity to walks on the moors and the Lydford Gorge. It is also well-placed for visits to may locations further afield. The accommodation is comfortable and feels like a home. The welcome treats were very much appreciated. We wouldn't hesitate to return.
Excellent food (often too much for me). Peaceful location, good for dog owners/walkers.
Handy for us to meet local friends & also to tour around generally. Not too far from popular towns & scenic areas of North & South Devon & Cornwall. Good base for walkers, only minutes from Lydford Gorge.
Great location in a pretty village, surrounded by walks for all abilities. Perfect base for exploring the area, seaside, moorlands, woods and forests, granite way. Townend Barn is a home from home with lovely hosts just on the doorstep for help and advice. Perfect stay in Lydford.
The room was perfect for a weekend getaway, well appointed and very comfortable. The hotel has multiple views of the moors. The living room was gorgeously decorated and was perfect to sit and relax around the fireplace. Breakfast was delicious.
The staff couldn’t have been more helpful, clean hotel & rooms, lovely little bar area, fantastic breakfast in the morning included in the room price which was a huge bonus! Extremely impressed with the service we received!
Lovely hotel with gorgeous garden. Staff very welcoming & friendly. Rooms very nice and comfortable but a little small but it is an old Inn so is to be expected. Would definitely stay again.
The lovely breakfast and the serene location. Room was very comfortable. Hosts were very accommodating and friendly. Lydford Gorge and the western tors of Dartmoor are very close.
Nice little hotel with pub very near to dover ferries. We decided very late to arrive, but we were welcome with open arms. Very nice, very british hotel. Full recommendation!
Great location for Lydford and The Granite Way cycle path. Great host and a lovely breakfast. Big room, niice bathroom and a great view of the moor. Thanks Angela.
