We chose Dartington Hall as a great location for exploring Dartmoor and Devon coast and fell in love with the peace and tranquility of the place. The grounds are stunning. The on-site pub selling good range of drinks, well kept real ale and delicious meals and on-site quirky cinema kept us entertained in the evenings.
