One Drake Road Hotel

I had a wonderful stay. Like a home from home. So friendly and I will definitely be returning

I loved that it was so welcoming. Like walking into a home. Beautiful smells and comforting music with a chilled vibe.

Totally and utterly blown away by how fabulous this hotel was. The hosts were friendly and gave us some great tips on where to go and what to do. If your looking for a wow factor hotel this place certainly had it and more....

Nothing

Lovely decor, great stories about William Morris. Bed really really comfortable indeed. Amazing beautiful toiletries.

The owners are welcoming, helpful and easy to contact. There are beautiful and thoughtful touches throughout the property. I asked for an extra towel and was given one with no hassle. The owners also kindly took in a package for me ahead of my arrival. There are tea, coffee and caramel wafers in the rooms. The level of cleanliness was fastidious and much appreciated. The property is easy to find and very much in the centre of Tavistock. The bed was comfortable. The shower was hot and powerful. A lot of properties claim to be boutique but I think One Drake Road is the real deal.

Parking is limited. There are some parking spaces next to the property but these are street parking open to all and you’ll need to move your car by 10am. There are local car parks within a 10min walk but they have similar restrictions. They do have the option of paying for parking by app tho, so it’s possible to park for free overnight and wake up early enough to pay for morning parking then go back to sleep. I did manage to park close to the property on most nights of my stay. The owner likes to play classical music in shared areas during the day, especially when guests are due to arrive. It’s a sweet affectation and many people will love this, but I experience some degree of misophonia. If you have similar issues then you may not appreciate the music. Having said that I am sure that if I had spoke to the owner they would have negotiated a solution with me. I was out the majority of the day so it caused me minimal discomfort.

A very well presented place, the owners are very friendly and helpful.

The parking is a bit of a problem, we struggled to find anywhere on Saturday.

Iain and Jack were extremely welcoming and it seemed that nothing was too much trouble. The room was comfortable and the communal sitting area was very unique. A lot of history surrounds the house and it was explained to us in detail. Breakfast was delicious for an extra £10 each. We highly recommend the accommodation and wouldn't hesitate in using it again!

Booking.com needs to go for 11 for this place.....
