    "10/10 EXCELLENT Quaint little lodge with wooden beams. In character of what lodge should look like. Very clean and tidy."

  • Daniella B. - May 2023 travelling for business 2023 Trip Advisor

    "The Dartmoor Lodge is an amazing place with extremely friendly staff. My colleague and I joked in the evening that it would be great to have crumpets for breakfast because I had never tried them. And in the morning, they had bought them, especially for me. They really did everything they could to make us feel great. The restaurant was very good as well and the quality-price ratio very reasonable. It is a nice place to explore Dartmoor and I highly recommend it! "
