The Oratory

I live in California and always stay here when I am visiting family & friends in Devon. The room is spacious & clean - as is the bathroom. The owners are friendly and very accommodating. HIGHLY Recommended.

A lovely, fresh and stylish stay perfectly positioned to explore and experience the Moors. Our hosts couldn't have done more to make our stay better. They were marvellous! Highly recommended.

We had a brilliant welcome by the owner who showed us to the Chapel annex - a home within a home with lovely homely touches. Our daughter was invited to use the trampoline in the garden and make friends with the cats. A short walk down the hill in the evening took us to the Prince of Wales pub for dinner. We'd booked the room on s/c basis so travelled in to Tavistock for breakfast where we stumbled across 'The Kitchen' - you have to try the West Country breakfast and Hogs Pudding!! We had a great drive to and from The Oratory over the moors - fantastic scenery.

Lovely large room, great for a family. Fantastic amenities!

Very nice and friendly lady and could do enough for use

Great family room, we were greeted by a lovely warm room and a welcome pack ,much appreciated after a long journey

A very warm welcome by the Oratory's pet cat, ( Midnight Ninja), and Chris. Room was clean, comfortable and well decorated. Room had all the amenities you could wish for:fridge,kettle and microwave, TV and hairdrer. Tea,coffee, biscuits, cereals and fresh milk provided. Maps and guides available. Info for places and pubs to eat and drink. Sofa and a sofa bed. Beautiful roll top bath in a large bathroom plus full size shower, good water supply. Under floor heating in the bathroom, toastie. Prince of Wales pub a short walk down the road provided lovely food, also very friendly. Beautiful starry night, saw my first shooting star. Well worth the money. Would definately stop there again.

We were spending a couple of nights here as it was close to a family wedding we were attending. The B&B ticked all the boxes for us. A large room on two levels (Chapel Annex) with fresh food in the room for breakfast. Large bathroom with bath and separate shower, TV and plenty of sitting space. Short walk to two pubs in the village with really good food. OK, you twisted my arm, so I've to give a negative point. My only minus would be the steps up to the B&B. I've got dodgy knees and didn't find it too bad at all but if you're really bad on your feet, it would cause a problem. The proprietors are very good and if you have any issues, they will sort it out. Great place to stay if you're wanting to explore the moor.....far better than the establishment down the road (the nick).

The owners were friendly and provided everything we needed. Breakfast was excellent and the facilities exceeded our expectations - it was a little home from home. Would certainly rebook.

The clean and spacious accommodation made it very comfortable for us. There was a very double bed, one single bed and one pull out bed as well as a sofa and a table with 4 chairs. The luxurious large bathroom, with a large window and heated flooring was very much appreciated by all members of the family. My son loved the free standing large bathtub. I loved the two heads shower. There was an all-around sense of space with the tall ceiling and 4 high windows. There were many leaflets and maps of the local attractions and areas which was perfect as originally this was booked as a walking holiday to walk around the area and moors, however, due to an injury I was unable to walk and had to find alternative attractions. There is also a booklet with instructions though Sally was very pleasant and attentive and waited for our late arrival to explain the facilities. She also helped us in washing and drying dirty clothes and brought them back all clean and dry and folded!!. Additionally, she cleared and washed all the things from breakfast and dinner which made our stay so much more relaxing. The facilities (microwave, kettle, cutlery, plates, mugs, etc., allowed us to have breakfast and dinner indoors, which helped greatly with my injured foot. There are many books and games available in the room as well as the TV. We will definitely be coming back as soon as my foot heals to walk around the lovely and diverse areas of the moor.
