Guest Reviews

• Kevin (9/5): -
• Jackie (8/5): OK for a one night stay but could be improved upon. - Very friendly and welcoming staff. Comfortable bed. Lovely old building with a big garden. Nice quiet location with access to Dartmoor and Granite Way. Wifi/mobile phone signal patchy away from public areas. Bathroom could use a makeover, with a towel rail installed, better extraction fan and somewhere to place sponge bags etc. Breakfast choices were minimal and poor value for money. It was difficult to eat as the room did not have upright chairs or a table on which to put the breakfast things on. It was a matter of sitting on the sofa with the breakfast items on our laps. In that regard, the room is in need of a furniture upgrade.
• Donna (9/5): -
• Jenny (9/5): -
• Keith (10/5): Overall an excellent stay in a wonderful, traditional country Inn. - The Inn is very atmospheric, quintessentially Devonian with a huge garden. Our room was very spacious and comfortable with a special basket of treats and a blanket for our dog. The food in the dog friendly bar was excellent, along with a few locally sourced drinks. The breakfast hamper served to the room is a great idea with a variety of choices. The optional hot bacon and egg sandwich was perfect to set us up for our onward journey. I would definitely recommend the Bearslake Inn and would stay there again. The only minor grumble I would have is that we waited over an hour for our food. Perhaps this was because it was busy in the restaurant but an acknowledgement of the delay would have prevented the feeling that we had been forgotten.
• Ian (7/5): Lovely people, lovely location and building but 5 star prices for 3 star food. - This is a wonderful building full of character, mind your head! The location is really good with easy access to both Bodmin town and the main routes through Cornwall. It has a lovely back garden with plenty of seating and a small brook running by. The room was fully functional but lacked an iron for our creased up cloths from our day 6 road trip. The bed was so comfortable! We dined at the hotel for an evening’s meal. 2 plates of fish and chips at £21 each was a hefty cost. The meal was 75% chunky chips (which were really nice) and a tiny battered fish + 2 small pots of tartar sauce and mushy peas. £21, that’s the most I’ve ever paid for chips with small fish. On the whole, it was ok but very over priced.
• Mike (6/5): Good location, old property with associated niggles - We had the Garden Room. Ground floor overlooking the garden/grass area. Easy parking on the front. Wi-fi just about adequate in the room, better outside and in the pub. Breakfast was pre-ordered and delivered to the door in a whicker basket at the time we chose. Location was good, access to Dartmoor within minutes. The property is a thatched roof building, lots of character, low doorways in the pub. I accept that as it's so old allowances have to be made, but the furniture in the room looks and feels dated and needs freshening up. The mattress being the first thing I'd replace. Attention needed in the bathroom, particularly the peeling paint above the shower cubicle. We ate in the restaurant on the first night. The food was overpriced by our standards and any extras (veg etc) was at least another £6 ish - it should be included in the main meal price.
• Remmelink (10/5): Gastvrije authentieke Inn, aanrader in Dartmoor - Locatie, sfeer, eten en de gastvrije enthousiaste medewerkers. Niets om over te klagen
• Amanda (10/5): - Lovely old style property , big rooms, lovely country views and really lovely staff N/a
• Sarah (5/5): - Good location , very spacious family room. Friendly check in. We had some room issues like a broken shower and lack of electricity leaving part of the room and the bathroom in darkness.
• Sally (10/5): Bearslake birthday April 2026 - Beautiful old cottage style with lots of character.Lovely gardens and despite being next to a main road it wàs very peaceful. The staff were friendly and helpful.The food was delicious. Nothing I didn't like really.Maybe a few more choices on the menu🤔
• Helen (7/5): - Staff Breakfast in room
• Peter (10/5): - Location was excellent as were all the staff. We were made to feel very welcome as soon as we entered the Inn. Room was comfortable with everything we needed and the food in the restaurant was exceptional.
• Graham (10/5): Very relaxing - Very clean and friendly Nothing
• Jon (9/5): -
• margaret (9/5): Great stay comfy bed, super food and lovely staff. - Superb stay The room would benefit from blackout blinds window and door.
• Dylan (10/5): Great place to stay, great food - Great food and staff were friendly
• Elizabeth (10/5): Wonderful place to stay - would have liked to have stayed longer. - Breakfast was simply a croissant(warm) and coffee but was very good. The location was superb and I loved the garden room where I stayed. I thought it an especially nice touch to have a basket with biscuits and a bowl for the dog. Also the selection of teas plus hot chocolate was definitely a bonus. Because I had all the dog's stuff with me plus a heavy suitcase, I had to make several journeys to the garden room and would have appreciated an offer of help to carry things. On my way out someone did offer to carry my case. I could have asked I suppose but that is my only complaint, otherwise excellent.
• Sarah (10/5): Fantastic stay in a fairytale setting. - The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was amazing and the extra touches such as a pet hamper and a birthday card for my husband were so thoughtful. We had an amazing stay.
• Hadley (10/5): Wonderful, we would defiantly recommend Bearslake Inn - From the moment e walked in we had a warm welcome, the staff are amazing and the food is the best overall a wonderfull time spent here. nothing
• Tracy (9/5): Gorgeous property, great food, brilliant staff, I have stayed here a few time now and it is very warm and welcoming ever - The property itself is beautiful everything is within character of the building
• Natalie (9/5): It was just like walking into a great big hug - The staff made you fell like family and couldn't do enough for you and food was excellent and just such a lovely place . N/A
• Burgess (8/5): - Lovely place... Amazing food and a nice cosy room.
• Tracy (9/5): - I just love this place, staff are so warm and welcoming every time. Beautiful place, very cosy, food is amazing.
• Barry (5/5): Interesting. - Very quirky with lots of atmosphere. Central heating was not on when we arrived so room very cold and took some time to heat up.
• Ingrid (10/5): Perfect cosy winter getaway. We loved every aspect of the Bearslake - We loved the beautiful historical old inn and our room, the hayloft, had the most fabulous view. Being dog friendly, our dog was made to feel very welcome with lots of treats. The staff were so attentive and lovely, the food was incredible. Location ideal for the moors Nothing
• MIKE (10/5): - Room parking good, staff good Been here many times, food always great, last visit the food was not up to the normal quality, maybe a new chef ????
• Faye (3/5): Overpriced food. Stick to pub food that everyone can afford and enjoy. - The accomodation is wonderful. The food side re dinner and breakfast completely ruined my stay though. Barely any vegetables or garnishes on offer. Had to pay extra for potato side and pay extra for vegetable on top of a £23 pie which was mainly all gravy and a thin pastry lid. Was told I would have to pay £3.50 each to bring out the birthday cheesecake me and my son had made my Mum right before it was due to be served which ruined the moment. Wrong information given regarding pre order of Breakfast hampers. Did not want to pay nearly £40 for me and my two young children for breakfast when they would probably only eat a small amount so cancelled and nipped to the local Waitrose for my breakfast - which ruined my only chance of a lie in! Having seen the breakfast on offer from my sister - in - law - am glad I didn't bother with the £40 hamper.
• Tracy (9/5): Beautiful room, beautiful old country pub, log burners, staff were excellent - Everything, it was a gorgeous place Nothing
• David (5/5): - The food and the pub.Room was nice but cold Poor heating
• Sharon (9/5): Perfect for the purpose - Amazing food, excellent service, all staff very attentive and friendly. Comfortable room
• Vivienne (10/5): Hospitality and food second to none . Authentically furnished comfortable room . - Hamper provided to room which was super Prefer breakfast in restaurant
• John (10/5): Our stay was wonderful, can't wait to return. - The wonderful location and beautiful building both point to a very special experience to come. Friendly and helpful staff made us feel very welcome, and our dog was well looked after with treats. Our evening meals were exceptional. My wife was a chef for many years and was well impressed with the presentation and wonderful taste of the varied dishes on the extensive menu. Our room was warm, spacious, and comfortable. We will return ASAP. As coffee drinkers we would have liked more choice, rather than the multitude of teas. Just our preference though.
• Stuart (10/5): - Friends, cozy, amazing food and a lovely quiet setting. Thank you so much
• JStrudwick (8/5): Wonderful staff, fantastic food and a great location. Really lovely! - Staff were amazing - they were so kind to my 6 year old. The food was excellent and the pub is beautiful. The beds were really soft mattresses, so not v.comfy. The WiFi in the room was very poor and the television in the room needs updating.
• Ramon (9/5): -
• Katie (8/5): -
• Amanda (10/5): - My sons and I stayed for one night in a beautiful quadruple room with lovely views out on to the garden and stream, lots of treats in our room for us and our dog. Very comfortable bed, super clean warm shower and bath. We also had an outstanding meal, thank you so much
• Erin (10/5): Fantastic Inn, Great food, friendly staff!!! - Bearslake Inn is stunning and the surrounding gardens are so pretty with a little stream running through. Our room was so clean and welcoming and very warm (much needed after a long rainy car ride). We took our little dog and they had a little basket of bits for him which was a lovely touch. The bar/restaurant was brilliant. We had the most delicious dinner and highly recommend the truffle fries!!! The staff were fantastic and super friendly and made us feel right at home. We can’t wait to go back and explore the area more and stay again! Thank you so much to the team for making everything so special!
• Jim (10/5): Fantastic - Excellent location cosy, exceptional food and service
• Diana J (8/5): A good place - It’s has a lovely garden You have to pay extra for a hamper for breakfast.
• SarumObjects (5/5): A great stay spoiled by the evening meal on Saturday - Breakfast was supplied in hamper in our room. The table & chairs made eating a little awkward. The location was very good: walks up to cycle path (Granite Way) were fabulous. Dinner on Friday evening was good! Dinner on Saturday evening was poor. We waited over an hour for plates to arrive - my wife's was cold and mine was warmed up! She sent it back and when it arrived there was not much venison: 2 not very big slices.
• Zoe (9/5): Very friendly and comfortable. Food was exceptional - Very friendly and comfortable. Food was exceptional
• DIDIER (8/5): - Belle demeure,repas de grande qualité et breakfast en chambre très bien! Un peu cher ! Et tout est en plus,on doit payer pour recharger nos batteries de vélos 5 livres/ batterie alors que la nuitée est déjà chère/ aux autres hébergements.. Le breakfast, pareil des suppléments des qu'on veut un œuf C'est un peu dommage .....
• Bob (8/5): - No breakfast available other than a snack bag
• Jason (8/5): Very pleasant - Lovely old country pub. Beautiful garden with a stream. Super friendly attentive staff. Generous portions of delicious home cooked food with great local ingredients. Pub and rooms full of character. Generally we really liked it. Good value too. A little tired in places but you could say that’s the charm as very old venue.
• Barbara (9/5): - We had a lovely stay and dinner with my husband celebrating our wedding anniversary. The building is very charming, the food is great and the staff is really kind. Thank You! Barbara
• Debbie (9/5): -
• Jo (1/5): Pretty poor. - My sons room was fine. Our room was damp, cold and dark. Nowhere in the bathroom to hang towels or put your toilet bags. No heating or portable heater available so we came back from a walk - which is what Devon is about - the outdoors, we got really wet and there was no way of drying out soaking clothes so the room just got damper. The dressing table chair was falling apart so when I sat down to dry my hair the leg was coming off. The breakfast is overpriced as we had to pay an additional £7.50 for an egg roll. The dinner was totally overpriced for the quality and lack of atmosphere in the restaurant areas.. Staff were very nice I have to say and tried to be as helpful as they could.
• Suzy (10/5): - We had a lovely night at the Inn, perfect for what we needed after 3 days at a music festival! Quiet, beautiful, walking from outside straight into the countryside, a lovely big room and the breakfast hamper was really fab, it all felt very luxurious.
• Nadine (9/5): -
• Laura (10/5): - The most beautiful setting and rooms. Had the breakfast delivered to the door, wow, it was amazing! We will be returning Nothing
• Psaros (2/5): Very disappointing. - The location and the inn are beautiful. Very disappointing customer service. We booked the night and dinner at this facility with my wife to celebrate our 20th anniversary. When booked, I mentioned that it's our anniversary and that we are both vegans, I double-checked on the phone with a member of staff if there will be vegan options for us and they assured me that there's vegan options on their menu, on the night when we were seated we came to realise that there's no vegan options for us, when we asked the staff they said that the menu changed and they can't do anything about it. It was a very disappointing and stressful experience as we were hungry and looking forward to enjoying a nice meal and drink for our anniversary. We ordered some bread, chips, and olives until we figure out what to do, and they charged us £20 for the above (You'd think that after this inconvenience it would be on the house as a good gesture, but not). We had to travel for about 20 minutes driving to a near town to find something to eat after all. Before leaving we asked the staff to turn the heating in the room as it was cold, but when we arrived back, it was still cold, and instead, they left us an extra blanket. It was a very disappointing experience and not what we had planned for our anniversary.
• Jeanette (9/5): Great Inn, lovely and quiet. - Beautiful Inn. Great food. Comfy bed. Lovely staff. Great breakfast hamper. It was all great.
• Delia (5/5): Rushed - The building is beautiful as is the location very peaceful The daily cleaning wasn’t the best, sheets had hairs on first day lots of dust even on bathroom shelves . Menu in restaurant very bland . Breakfast order has to be in before kitchen closes at 8.30!!! Very rushed dinner experience due to kitchen closing at 8.30 on bank holiday weekend!!! The place was empty even though the beer garden is large.
• Tom (8/5): Superb - Lovely old building. Clean room, great food, excellent service. Garden stunning in the afternoon sun.
• Damian (4/5): An ok place to stay but nothing to blow your hair back - The location is great, just near the Granite Way for a lovely walk. Also the beer garden is fabulous, a stream runs through it! There building itself is also wonderful with real thatch. I'm assuming the place was renovated 10/15 years ago, and little has been done to upkeep it since. The room felt tired; thin carpet, lumpy mattress, cracks and missing paint. Service was a little strange, the woman who booked us in and took our dinner reservations at 3pm, greeted us as total strangers at 7pm. We were really looking forward to a great Sunday roast - from the images online it promised well. The potatoes were leathery, the beef was dry and the veg was boiled and unloved. Breakfast could only arrive at your door between 8.15 and 8.30 so no real prospect of a lie in! It was ok, but the nicest thing I could say about it was that it filled a hole. I know that hospitality is a touch gig right now. But we try to get away for a few times a year in the West Country so I feel we have a good idea of the landscape. I just can't find a reason that we will be returning to Bearslake.
• van der Meulen (10/5): - Beautiful location, beautiful Inn.
• Matthew (8/5): -
• Verified traveler (10/5): Perfect rest on cycling holiday - Bed was very comfortable and room was lovely. Gorgeous view. Food was good too and I appreciated the breakfast hamper although some might prefer a hot breakfast. Only minor annoyance was hearing lots of kitchen noise when I was trying to get an early night. But I was so tired I couldn’t be bothered to get up to ask anyone to be quiet! Overall I would go back. The staff were all lovely and helpful and found me safe overnight storage for my bike.
• Suzanne (7/5): -
• Ortrun (8/5): - Extrem gute Küche und sogar Cocktails zu fairen Preisen
• Mary (9/5): Lovely hotel, with good restaurant and the staff were friendly and exemplary - I didn't have breakfast, but my daughter and her family liked the breakfast hampers. This is the third time I have stayed at the Bearslake Inn and I really think it is a well run, picturesque hotel with delightful, friendly staff and good facilities. It was a chilly night and consequently on this occasion it took me a while to get warm in the night. I would have loved the option of a sit-down not breakfast, though I quite understand the difficulties and cost implications for establishments offering this.
• Colin (8/5): One night stay - Great, very old historical In, with beautiful gardens. Very low ceilings and traditional decor. The bathroom was clean and spacious. However, it needs modernising to maximise the rooms potential and justify the price. Very helpful staff and lovely food in the restaurant.
• Janine (10/5): Perfect stay, but too short. - The location was perfect., quiet and hiking just in front of the door. The garden room was lovely, clean and we appreciated the tea, cookies, coffee and hot chocolate very much. The bed was very comfortable and the shower had great pressure. The garden is beautiful. Lots of space and enough chairs and tables to sit and relax. The food in the pub was really nice and the breakfast hamper perfect. We hope to be back soon. It didn’t bother us, but the internet connection in the room was patchy. Right outside it was very good.
• Judith (8/5): Overall very good.staff helpful and friendly. - Breakfast one day bacon roll very nice.evening meal outstanding. All satisfactory.
• stephen (8/5): - Stunning room, and good views, and garden. Excelleent dining
• Am (8/5): Very good - The best continental breakfast I've ever had.
• Sarah (10/5): We LOVE this pub hotel. - Breakfast way very good. It came in a hamper to our room. Very relaxing and the food was very very good. Were we meant to use the coffee bags that came with the room for our caffeire?
• Vanessa (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely people. Garden bar and chairs. Beautiful old building. Wonderful food. Nothing, I guess I'd rather have traditional breakfast but its okay with the hamper.
• John (9/5): Crash helmets for low ceilings should be provided! - Perfect setting and historical information,so pleasant. Breakfast offer
• kate (8/5): - Lovely place, WiFi was very weak in the rooms.
• Christena (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful old pub, ideal position to visit the local area.
• Phillip (10/5): relaxing great food brilliant staff - brilliant location .2nd time staying here in 2 years from New .so freindly and great food service. nothing would recommend to any one
• Robert (9/5): Superb - Stayed here in the past so I knew what to expect. The building is 500 years old and is consequently quirky with irregular shapes and low ceilings, but it is charming. The food was excellent, and the staff were friendly, which made our stay very comfortable. Nothing.
• Cara (8/5): - Room was clean. Mattress wasnt all that comfortable. Since this is an old old bldg, you have to watch your head, especially if your over 5'5. Food was good. Toffee pudding was only average unfortunately. Otherwise was really good food. First night there was music playing that we could hear in our room. It finally stopped about 9:30-10. There was a security light that went off outside about 1 that shone right into our window and lit it up like Christmas. Thankfully it went off after a few minutes, but it woke us up!
• Rick (8/5): Very good -
• John (10/5): - It was very quiet with a lovely out look from the back.
• Lorraine (10/5): Wonderful stay with the best staff - Everything, wonderful staff ! Fabulous food ! Spotless and very comfortable room with everything you could need , great location Would have been nice to have breakfast instead of a hamper . I am sure they were lovely though if the rest of the stay was to go by
• Christina (10/5): A delightful, and memorable stay - Bearslake Inn, was unique, the staff were friendly and helpful, the beds were comfortable and the location was great! Nothing
• Rebecca (6/5): Nice place for a short stay - The accommodation was an old thatched cottage with low ceilings and quaint rooms. The bedrooms were a good size and clean. The garden area was nice to relax in when the weather was good. Plenty of parking. One of the serving staff (dark hair & she said she was quite new) was super friendly, accommodating and helped us when one of our guests was checking in late. The dinner was delicious and reasonably priced. The WiFi didn’t work properly anywhere in the rooms. The breakfast basket was a nice idea, however it was a bit basic for the price. Towels weren’t changed even when wet. Some staff were quite abrupt - especially as the bar area closes when all outside guests leave, it would be nice if the bar stayed open later for B&B guests if required.
• Dinesh (10/5): Exceptional -
• Brendan (9/5): We will definitely go back. - Great location and an absolutely amazing outside space with deck chairs available for guests. The breakfast basket was lovely, breakfast in bed is a lovely way to start the day. Extremely dog friendly throughout. Great staff, we could not fault any of them. The shower was slightly dated and the hot water took quite a while to filter through but I am being picky.
• Roland (7/5): Stay at The Bearslake Inn May 15th 2025 - The location Our bed was uncomfortable!
• Amy (9/5): Super cute rural Inn with amazing food and wine. - Super cute little Inn, right on the cycle track and had bike storage for overnight. Really warm and friendly staff with lovely big beer garden with a brook running through it for the day and excellent menu and wine list for the evening. Slightly noisy rooms from bar underneath, but didn’t spoil it.
• Pauline (10/5): Relaxing comfy and quiet. - The breakfast was lovely loved all of it. I thought the food and drink were very expensive, that was quite a shock.
• Tracey (10/5): Exceptional -
• Phil (7/5): Location and staff lovelly, breakfast arrangements disappointing. - The room french doors and the view over the moor. The staff were delightfull. There was not not enough shelf space in the bathroom. We did not like the breakfast arrangements, no hot breakfast, except on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, choice very limited (2 items).
• Malc (8/5): Will defiantly be staying again on my next trip. - The whole experience from booking inn to food and the room was very clean tidy bed was supa comfy, staff were very friendly and could not do enough for you. n.a
• Ian (9/5): Superb -
• Stephanie (9/5): Superb - Pretty and unique old thatched building. Comfy bed. Lovely garden. The prices of food and drinks are on the high side but it was really good food. Good location to get out onto Dartmoor. We were moved rooms due to a leak, from a room with a proper shower over bath we had booked, to a room with just a bath and a handheld shower attachment witb sloping roof, so had to crouch and shower one handed.
• Bull (10/5): A perfect stay in a perfect location. A great start to our holiday ! - Have driven past many times over the years but this was our first stay. We expected the experience to be good, but we were delighted by the room, the historic atmosphere, the very friendly and efficient staff. Exceptionally noteworthy was the restaurant ; the evening meal was excellent - someone in the kitchen really knows their stuff ! The surrounding countryside was beautiful and perfect for walking. We really were delighted with every aspect of our stay.
• Sherriff (8/5): Pleasant and quaint - Lovely stay and spacious room , however, the bed was very uncomfortable and creaky and the radiator kept making loud noise. All night! Also , the breakfast choice was very limited and needs more to choose for the price.
• Cãrla (9/5): Superb -
• Deirdre (9/5): I had a very relaxing comfortable enjoyable Dog friendly stay with lovely walks and delicious food. - I liked the hamper breakfast and the choice of goods.The rooms I stayed in were warm, comfortable and pleasingly decorated and furnished. The staff were welcoming and helpful. This beautiful thatched Inn is truly a dog friendly place to stay with walks going out onto the moor, or following the cycle trail. There are many interesting places to explore with many more woodland or moorland walks nearby. I ate in the restaurant each evening and although a small menu the food was good. There was even a small bag of treats for the dogs at the table! I would love to stay again. The bedside lighting in the Garden room was not bright enough to read by.
• Natalie (9/5): Very relaxed - We booked on Monday the restaurant and bar was close, very quiet had the place to our selfs. Very quiet, if the restaurant was open might be noisey. Lots parking .short exit off A30. Great walks. Very clean, friendly staff Room and no people had place to our self's
• Helen (9/5): Superb - The room Hayloft., the meals were excellent and staff friendly and helpful I thought the bed could have been bigger
• Tonkin (9/5): A really fantastic stay, great staff, great walks great place! - The service at lunch and dinner was exceptional. The room was clean and spacious Excellent location for walks Would have been nice to have a breakfast in the bar rather than a baguette to the room. However, it was very tasty!
