    The house is set in a stunning location and is beautiful. The owner, Jodie was very warm and welcoming and very knowledgeable about the area and its history. The room was clean and very comfortable with a lovely shower and bath. The room was well stocked with tea, coffee and water. Fresh milk was also available every day. The breakfast was delicious every day and the honey made on the farm was to die for! I was delighted I could buy some to bring home. I would absolutely recommend this hotel and cannot wait to return later in the year.

    The location was lovely, close to the village amenities. Breakfast was amazing with a good amount of choice. Nice that the owners use their own honey, eggs etc for breakfast.

    It is a real shame there is no restaurant anymore but appreciate it is now open as a guest house. However there are two excellent pubs within walking distance.

    This was our 4th visit to Lydford House and again we were not disappointed. We love Lydford House and the area, the rooms are beautifully appointed and a great breakfast is served. The owners are very friendly and welcoming so we will be back again.

    It's not a reflection on the hotel, but I'm awaiting a knee replacement so find a shower over a bath a bit tricky to access. But my husband had no issues.

    Easy to check in. Loved the huge lounge downstairs lots of seating areas and a large log burner. It felt like visiting a country house. We had a four poster bed, very comfortable mattress with crisp white sheets. Whole place was spotless. Delicious breakfast, freshly cooked, plus cereals and pastries. My husband particularly enjoyed the fresh honeycomb honey. Friendly and efficient staff. Enjoyed seeing the chickens roaming the garden. Perfectly placed for exploring Dartmoor. We enjoyed cadaver bridge and burrator reservoir
