Super Aufenthalt für einen Stopp Richtung Cornwall

Tolle, ruhige Lage, sehr urig und sehr freundliches Personal.Sehr gutes Restaurant. Hundefreundlich. Super Frühstück auf dem Zimmer, welches in einem Korb vor das Zimmer gestellt wurde, es war sogar alles frisch zubereitet. Auf jeden Fall eine klare Empfehlung.

Es roch etwas nach Desinfektionsmittel

A comfortable stay in a lovely place. Marred by the noise during breakfast.

Breakfast hamper was very good.

Regrettably we were not given any warning of some work taking place in the room above which started at 8.00am with drilling, banging and sawing .

Schlechtes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis - nicht zu empfehlen

Es gab eine schöne Wiese mit einem kleine Fluss der vor der Haustür floss leider war es gesperrt wegen Maulwurf Hügeln. Parken ist kostenlos. Das Anwesen ist sehr idyllisch mit Lage in einem Nationalpark, allerdings an einer Bundesstraße.

Die Heizung hat erst gar nicht funktioniert und später (gegen 22 Uhr) ging sie auf ein Minimum an. Es war so kalt, dass wir mit Mütze, dicken (dreifachen) Sachen schlafen mussten und meine Frau ist trotzdem total krank geworden. Wir hatten mehrfach darauf hingewiesen und erst nach dem sechsten Anlauf haben wir die nichtzufrieden stellende Antwort erhalten, dass wir die Heizung nicht selber steuern können. Wir waren Ostersonntag da und dort sagte man uns, dass noch keine Saison wäre und wir deshalb ab 17.00 Uhr alleine in der Unterkunft sind. Daher konnten wir nichts mehr essen und auch die Bar nicht mehr nutzen. Wir haben vollstes Verständnis dafür, wenn man Ostern feiern möchte, allerdings sollte man dann keine Buchungen annehmen. Aus diesem Grund konnten wir auch das günstigere Frühstück nicht wählen, sondern haben das Frühstück aufs Zimmer gebracht bekommen. Das wäre grundsätzlich auch schön gewesen, allerdings hatten wir keine Stühle und keinen Tisch und mussten somit auf dem kalten Fußboden frühstücken. Und das ganze für einen kleinen Preis von 60 Pfund für unsere 11 jährige Tochter und zwei Erwachsene. Und das, obwohl uns am Tag davor noch gesagt wurde, dass wir nur zwei Frühstücke bezahlen müssen. Leider konnten wir auch nicht duschen oder den Fön benutzen, da man uns sagte, dass der Feueralarm sehr schnell angehen würde. Da wir alleine in der Unterkunft waren und auch sonst niemand (auch nicht über die angegebene Notrufnummer) erreichbar war, haben wir auf eine warme Dusche oder ein Bad verzichtet, was uns sicherlich gut getan hätte, da wir sehr durchgefroren waren. Ach so, man sollte auch nicht allzu groß sein, da die Decke ca. 175 cm hoch ist und man sich ansonsten auch gerne hin und wieder den Kopf stößt. Und das dritte Bett ist auch ein „Highlight“. Es ist so schräg, dass es fast unmöglich ist nicht rauszufallen. Also, alles in allem war es eine unschöne, dafür aber sehr teure (216 Pfund) Erfahrung für eine Nacht gewesen.

beautiful cottage

Accomodatie is so beautiful and lovely cottage- bit small if you’re tall

breakfast in your room and later in the hall but all is from a list which you have to mark - there is no table with all what you can choose from disappointed because all hotels we had - had perfect breakfast - croissant was in a bag etc host could be bit more friendlier- Pub and restaurant were closed

Loved it , loved the breakfast hamper. Would definitely return

I really liked the accommodation, it was beautiful The staff were very friendly, we had our dog so we were impressed with how dog friendly it was .the food was delicious too.

Although we understand it's old , we had a really loud toilet flush which we worried it would be disturbing the people below us as well as us . As we could hear the chap below snoring loudly so knew the sound could be heard .

I had the best time. Lisa and all the staff made my stay memorable and everything was perfect. I can’t wait to return xx

I’ve had the most wonderful stay. Lisa went over and above to make our trip from wales memorable. Everything was perfect, the food was divine, my cottage was spotless and omg the breakfast basket was to die for with fresh and local produce. Highly recommended to stay here and I will definitely be back. The staff were also lovely. Thank you all for making our stay and little treat amazing. My dad is poorly so these memories were priceless.

It’s simply gorgeous.

Exceptional

Beautiful setting, great food, great drinks. Really nice and helpful staff, couldn't do enough and nothing was too much trouble. Last minute booking as my wife broke her ankle on Dartmoor, and they were so helpful. Will definately be returning.

Can't fault the hotel or staff at all.

Disappointed

Rustic charming thatched building and location suited us fine

Room smelt damp ,very limited power sockets all in the wrong place for the vanity mirror for hair drying & straighteners ect Staff weren't very welcoming and wouldn't let us leave out van in the car park for the last day we had to check out before 10 He told us we could park on the rd and take a chance which wasn't very helpful Room was poorly lit with only lights at the far end The wardrobe smelt damp Overall very disappointed as it wasn't cheap ,Not good value for what we paid

Lovely location room not up to standard

Lovely location, unfortunately it was raining but I am sure on a sunny day the garden and the view would be very nice. Staff were very friendly and food in restaurant was good. Room was a nice size and bed was comfy.

To many emails pre arrival, very repetitive. Room was damp and cold even though it was the middle of July, I understand it is an old building and yes it was raining but it smelt musty, it wasn't just damp from that day Very basic tea & coffee in room - no fresh milk offered or any biscuits. I felt £106 was a lot for room only and no breakfast considering the room wasn't 100% it certainly didn't meet my expectations compared to the website.

Excellent, comfortable stay with a very hospitable host.

The location is fantastic with a small stream bubbling through the open areas. The building is beautiful with thatched roof, exposed beams and masses of "old world" charm. Check in was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast basket was novel and a great change to the regular soggy hotplates you normally get in a hotel stay.

Nothing to dislike

A beautiful dog friendly Inn, comfy rooms with stunning walks near by.

A beautiful 13th Century Thatched Inn, only stayed for one night but is dog friendly throughout, has a large garden with babbling brook, and the room was a lovely size with a super comfy bed. The Inn is situated next to The Granite Way which is a gorgeous walk with stunning views. would have liked to have stayed longer, the anniversary card, chocs and some treats for the dog was also a lovely touch.

didn't like the automatic service charge added to the food bill.

Ancient, attractive building with comfortable modern facilities in an outstanding Dartmoor location.

Comfortable bed and huge room. Very hot water. Super towels. Tea and coffee making facilities. Didn’t try food as we were going to a function conveniently close.

Nothing, within the confines of our visit. We didn’t sample the bar, the restaurant or the very pretty gardens.

Very good

The room was beautifully laid out. Fantastic service in the restaurant, staff so polite and food really good. Beautiful view from the bedroom out over the moors.

Only complaint was the room was noisy until maybe 22:30 and then noisy from 7:30 onwards as it was above the restaurant and right next to a busy kitchen. Room was wonderfully quiet out of busy hours though,

This Thirteenth Century Inn had it all, from history to fine dining is got it all.

The moment we arrived, from the thatched roof to the real fire , low ceilings and friendliness of the staff everything was 100% perfect

I can honestly say there was nothing I disliked about the Bearslake Inn
