What guests think
Across the reviews of The Moorland Hotel, guests repeatedly praise friendly, accommodating staff and tasty on-site dining, while noting dated décor and some maintenance niggles; the scenic Dartmoor-edge location and far-reaching views are frequent highlights for walkers and cyclists.
Rooms range from spacious quarters, sometimes with balconies, to dated spaces with thin walls or faulty fixtures, so experiences vary. Cleanliness is generally solid, though patchy upkeep and cosmetic wear appear in places. Expect a traditional stay with character, with trade-offs in modernity and polish.

The hotel is dated but excellent service and friendly staff made it a relaxing and welcoming break for me and my family including the dogs :) Moorland views and walks from your doorstep with a short drive to Plymouth and Yelverton and with the hotel restaurant and large bar area it made for stress free and relaxing place to gather as a family.

Everything was v clean. We stayed in the Wotter Room on the second floor. Yes it could all do with a bit of a paint in patches but the room is charming and huge. The view was amazing - we could see the fireworks in Plymouth the first night that we stayed. Had a fab Nepalese curry on Wednesday followed by an Indian pudding which was delicious. Steak on the second night. The hotel is on the edge of Dartmoor but close enough to the local tourist attractions. We will definitely return.

A very accommodating hotel. Based on the edge of the moors, the staff couldn't be any more helpful. We were there for a family get-together and the hotel staff managed to provide everything we asked for. The food was good and the chef even managed to offer an alternative menu option for our family celebration meal. Thanks for your numerous efforts.

A dated hotel which has charm but lacking finesse. We had the superior room which first impressions was great but the wallpaper was pealing, the shower didnt work and the jacuzzi bubbles didnt work. We had to kill several flies which woke up with the warmth. The room was cold on arrival but the heating turns on at 4.30 and then takes ages to reach the room although a small fan heater is provided

Hotel is nowhere near the 8.8 rating on website. So bad we left after two hours at property. Hotel is tatty and unloved. Room decor was dated and scuffed. Slide door to balcony corroded and difficult to move. Balcony drainage channel with many cigarette ends. Shower grout mouldy. Bathroom floor damaged and lifting. Basin did not drain. Poor lighting in bathroom. Bedroom carpet old and stained. Small bloodstain on bed duvet. Kettle dirty on outside and stale water in it. Television damaged with part of screen blacked out and lines from crack. Dirt , debris and staining behind bed and bedside tables. The only positive feature is the surrounding area view.

Great getaway, peaceful and quiet, great location for walking, has a DIY laundry for when needed, art deco a little outdated but the hotel has changed hands many times lately, its clean and comfortable what more do you need.

Very near to the Hotel is the Drakes bike trail and one way is Tavistock and the other is Plymouth so makes excellent place to stay if you like biking😊

I have been staying at the Moorland for over twenty five years and never disappointed. New owners are extremely helpful and food still excellent. Just need to tidy the place and carry out some decorating as the location is fantastic

I stayed in the largest room on the top floor which has a large comfy bed a desk and a corner sofa for lounging on to watch TV. Bathroom is large with good shower and jacuzzi bath. The view from the room is amazing looking down towards Plymouth Hoe in the distance.Evening meal was delicious (lamb madras) as was full English breakfast. Staff really nice and very friendly

Was as described. Dog friendly. Staff very pleasant and helpful. Shame they don't do vegan food but guess not many places do on the moors.

Had a family room, it was absolutely massive compared to other hotel family rooms. The beds were super comfortable, everything you could need was available in the room. The staff was super friendly and helpful and the breakfast was lovely. But my favourite thing had to be the view, it was breathtaking.

Location, parking, staff, restaurant, bar and beds were all great. Clean too but the building is old and could do with some updating. Price reflected this though so not an issue. Staff were above great and really made the experience pleasurable. Views of Plymouth Sound were spectacular. Across the road you are instantly on Dartmoor. Being able to take our dogs was the best about it all. Someone even brought their horse and tethered them in the small field whilst they came in for a drink. Thank you we will visit again.
