Fantastic and totally beautiful location. Quiet and lovely grounds. If you're a golfer it would be even better. Staff work so hard and are all so professional and welcoming. Beautiful at Christmas and I would recommend it unreservedly.

Our stay was absolutely wonderful. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make everything perfect. Before arrival, I requested a bouquet of flowers and some balloons to be arranged in our room, and it was beautifully set up just as we hoped. The room itself was lovely, we stayed in a castle valley view room. Waking up to a breathtaking sunrise made it even more memorable. The Sunday roast was exceptional, honestly, the best we’ve had anywhere, and we’ve tried many places for roasts! Breakfast was also excellent, with plenty of variety. We even requested a few items not on the menu, and it was no trouble at all. A truly unforgettable experience. Highly recommend!

Booked a valley castle room w king bed for one night in late Sep. Room was very clean with comfy n up to date decor. Room was big enough and soundproof quality was good. Big garden surrounded hotel n we took a pleasant walk the next day. Should have stayed for one or two nights so as to enjoy swimming pool and other facilities. The historical building was well maintained. Very pleasant stay

Room was nice and clean, the hotel itself is very nice but the service was just slightly off for a luxury hotel. Breakfast was £25 per person and I ordered the avocado and egg on an English muffin with a side of bacon. I got an un-toasted half an English muffin with barely any avocado, it was tiny! I had to remind someone to bring the side of bacon I ordered. No one checked in on us or asked if everything was ok so we couldn’t give any feedback. We thought this might have been a one off so we gave ‘the Great western grill’ a go for dinner and opted for chateaubriand. We were suspicious when the person taking our order didn’t ask how we would like it cooked. I had to tell them that we would like it cooked medium before they walked off. It came out very rare bordering on blue, we had to send it back. For £70 I would expect these things to be perfect first time. Again no one checked in on us and we had to flag someone down to ask for more drinks. Upon checking out we were hoping to provide some feedback but again, no one asked if we enjoyed our stay. It was all very odd. This place could be a gem if the service and food stepped it up a notch.

Stayed in a lodge during August 24, family of four. Fine for a cheap air bnb but no way a five star experience. lodge accommodation was well past its best and in need of reinvestment. Dated decor and furniture. Curtains falling off, dirty net curtain with holes in, old school dirty and broken Venetian blinds, stale cigarette smoke, very limited equipment for cooking, tiny tv with a dvd player, said there was chrome cast but didn’t work despite asking. Whole lodge was uncomfortably hot as hot water boilers on all the time, but yet the towel rads couldn’t be turned on so wet towels. Cleaners come twice a week - so in a 7 night stay they came day 3 and then final day - what’s the point? In short just lots and lots and of small things that led to a feeling of disappointment, especially at £650 a night. Pool has seen better days and was rammed - not manned so kids just doing what they want. Only went once despite it being what the kids wanted to do most. Both restaurants hugely disappointing especially given sky high prices. Poor service and poor food which features in many other reviews. Nice areas to relax in throughout the hotel, but staff impossible to find to get drinks etc. Complained to the team onsite who were kind enough to offer some money off, but still disappointing and feel I’ve wasted money. The archery and falconry were great, albeit expensive, but very good experience with brilliant people running them which was one saving grace. Avoid.

This is our 3rd time at Bovey & never disappoints. We stayed at the lodges on this occasion as we were travelling as a group. The lodges are lovely & spacious and equipped with everything needed. The grounds are impressive & lots of onsite activities to entertain the whole family. The hotel team are extremely helpful & friendly and make each stay memorable. Always sad to leave but we will return.

Excellent place for a weekend or mid-week getaway. Lots of walks in woods and along river; dog friendly. Swimming pool, tennis, croquet, boule and a huge golf course. There are many other (paid) pursuits, i.e. archery, air rifles, off road driving and even falconry. It is an historic country house hotel with comfortable rooms, quiet corners and two restaurants with bars. Also family lodges in the tree area beside the main building.

This is a beautiful place and a wonderful setting and the levels of service were significantly better than when I stayed here a couple of years ago as they have clearly staffed up since then. Couple of irritating things - £25 to use the EV charger - ridiculous, breakfast is still a bit of a shambles organisationally and you pay £28 a head for this privilege !

Everything about Bovey Castle was truly wonderful. It was in a beautiful location, with excellent facilities and delicious food. Above all, the staff was really helpful and friendly at all times. We will definitely visit again. In addition, it was my husband's birthday, and they had a birthday surprise for him.

Pros: 1. First-class golf course 2. Stunning grounds 3. Dog-friendly 4. Convenient Defender pickup 5. Good but expensive massage **Cons:** 1. **Staff Issues:** - Poor handling of a taxi request on the wedding day - Difficulty in ordering a coffee, with multiple redirections - Breakfast order incomplete and of low quality - Staff member's uniform was untidy and dirty - Incorrect billing for lounge drinks - Unhelpful footman with valet parking and map directions - Missed 6am wake-up call - Incomplete service with Welly boots request 2. Decor and Maintenance: - Tired decor with scuffed wallpaper, stained floors, and wobbly sink taps - Communal dining areas also appear worn Overall Experience: A disappointing 3-night stay at a supposedly 5-star hotel, with significant staff and service issues overshadowing the beautiful location and grounds. The reviewer regrets not opting for a local Airbnb and dining at local pubs instead.

Lovely setting, gardens are great and great building. Few things spoilt it beinv great. The golf carts make a horrid whine when reversing. If you are in a front room is awefully disturbing. The swimming pool has the most noisey pumps and basically means you cannot relax so forget the spa experience. Pillows in our room were terrible. I asked for replacements of s different style snd got more of the same. Staff were friendly but seemed totally untrained in the posh restaurant. Both were new, didnt know what the food was and didnt tio up wine during either meal we hsd despite psssing our table lots and it not being busy. Food was good mainly though pricey as you would expect. Recommend the steak tartare delicious

Fantastic stately home with lovely gardens. We had the cheapest room on the third floor and it was fine. The evening meal was ok but not fantastic. There is plenty to do and must be a golfers paradise. The ground floor rooms were magnificent

The property was gorgeous! The room was large and the bathroom updated. Staff were really helpful and the food was very good. It IS very remote so if you are going as a destination to really use the amenities-golf course, pool, spa, etc., it was great. We had hoped to use it as a base to travel out from but the roads were so narrow and rather treacherous getting in, we didn’t feel like driving back and forth to other locations in Devon and Cornwall, which was too bad.

We found the Bovee castle hotel, and surrounding grounds absolutely delightful! The staff were friendly and attentive, and there was an error of elegance through most of the facility. We were far less impressed however with the available dining in the bistro. While the staff were still friendly, the food was uninspiring bordering on mediocre. This restaurant lacked any of the field of elegance. The characterized the rest of the hotel and almost seemed not to fit. There's a second, far more elegant dining room, but that facility was not open, so we can't speak to it.

The attention from the staff begins the moment you pull up to this wonderful, hidden gem in the Dartmoor countryside. We had our two dogs with us and they were treated like royalty during our long weekend break in March. The rain didn’t put us off long walks in the gardens, over to the local pub and also we found time for a spot of archery in the grounds. The food is absolutely brilliant (and the dogs were allowed in the brasserie), the bar served top notch cocktails too. We had a castle room and it was just perfect. Stunning views over the valley and everything you needed for a perfect nights sleep - as well as a lovely coffee and tea station for the morning. The pool was lovely with steam room and sauna and also a stunning view through the glass into the grounds. All in all - utterly faultless in every way.

Our recent experience with Bovey Castle was deeply disappointing. We had our reservation cancelled abruptly because we were bringing our cat, despite having no such issues in the past. The Deputy General Manager's handling of the situation lacked any personal communication or courtesy, leaving us feeling utterly disregarded as guests. This incident raises serious concerns about the hotel's customer service. As a result, l urge fellow cat lovers and pet owners to reconsider patronizing this hotel. It's crucial to support establishments that value all their guests, including those with furry companions.

It is quite rare to be met with so much enthusiasm and friendliness from each and every member of staff during our stay. The hotel is in a lovely settling and oozes atmosphere and luxury. We particularly loved the pool where we could relax undisturbed. We had dinner in both restaurants and enjoyed the food (and service) very much. All in all, every single aspect of our stay is rated 5 star; a superb experience!

Very nice hotel with lots of good activities. The food was good and the hotel itself very nice. The only comments I would make was the service was pretty terrible in the bar and lounge area, slow not too friendly and I had to ask 3 times where my order was, no real apology. The spa is nice but the pool area very dated.
