    We liked everything, there was nothing we didn’t like.

    Beautifully, creatively styled and decorated rooms. Our bed was the most comfortable we’ve ever slept in and everything felt luxurious. The location is lovely, tranquil and quiet. We were able to properly relax and unwind. Breakfast was scrumptious too, with a good selection to choose from. The two nearby pubs are great too. Thank you Jodie, for being such a lovely host, we can’t wait to stay again.

    Lydford house is so much better than a chain hotel. The hotel is family owned, and we were dealt with throughout by the owner. The service could not be faulted, and I have no hesitation in recommendiing this establishment to other couples. A small hotel of very high quality!

    All good.

    Our hostess, Jodie, was spectacularly helpful - starting a fire in the lounge for us, taking our shopping and putting it in the fridge and texting us to let us know, wonderful breakfasts. Thanks Jodie. The house is lovely and interesting. The location is perfect for walking as there are a number of options directly from the property. For instance, we walked to Okehampton on the old railway track and caught the bus back. Also some great places to eat as directed by Jodie. Plenty of parking.

    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.
