• Jane (10/5): Comfortable and welcoming nights stay - Hugh and Denise were the most welcoming hosts. The room was comfortable and warm and the evening meal and breakfast were delicious. We thoroughly enjoyed our one night stay at the Elephant’s nest.
• Trevor (8/5): - An overnight stop. Room great, clean and tidy. Hosts very genuine. Service, Bar restaurant have huge potential
• Caroline (10/5): - Our stay was perfect. The room had everything we needed to make our stay a happy one. The breakfast was delicious and the menu varied. The surrounding countryside is incredible. Well worth a visit.
• Chris (6/5): - Meals very good but expensive. The room was not comfortable, the bed itself was terrible. so soft,
• sally (10/5): - Heaps of character and a warm welcome. Amazing bar. It is only open as a B&B now but well worth ordering food to eat in - a 16th century inn all to ourselves!
• Tessa (8/5): - Totally unique property. Quirky bar and breakfast room. Peaceful accommodation in a beautiful setting.
• Judith (10/5): - Delicious breakfast, extensive choice. Very comfortable kingsize bed. Towelling bathrobes, handmade soap for a luxury feel. Spacious rooms. Proper fresh milk in the little fridge in the room for hot drinks. Isolated spot on Dartmoor, surrounded by beautiful countryside.
• Gary (8/5): - A character property with nice views. The room was comfortable & warm. There was thick heavy dressing gowns to relax into... Perfect. Good supply of morning refreshments with fresh milk in the fridge & two bottles of water at know extra charge. The management were very hospitable & the breakfast was very substantial. This is a friendly, homely place to stay.
• letitia (8/5): - Lovely owners, retricted
• Cassian (6/5): - Unfortunately the owners have decided against reopening the bar which is disappointing. Pleasant place to stay for a night or two but would avoid against any lengthly stays as beds are incredibly soft and uncomfortable.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - The staff and service were excellent. The food delicious, local food and chef was an excellent cook.

• Verified traveler (6/5): - Nice location. Room and bathroom very good but it is next to a boiler room and was very hot all night even with windows open, found it difficult to sleep.
• Travelgirl (10/5): Ideal Dartmoor getaway - The rooms were very clean and comfortable and they served a great breakfast. The pub itself had a lovely traditional atmosphere and the food was excellent. A great base for a weekend stay in the Dartmoor area.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Nice location on the edge of Dartmoor - Warm friendly Pub with accommodation. Rooms are well laid out and roomy. The staff were very friendly. This is also a dog friendly pub, so we took our dogs so that we could take them up onto the moors.
