Lovely stay in Devon Country Pub
Really lovely country pub in Bovey Tracey, just within Dartmoor National Park. Friendly staff and the food is delicious. We brought our dog with us too and they were very friendly and accommodating to her and us. The room was huge and bed very comfortable. Excellent value for money.

Another fabulous stay at Cromwell Arms. We stayed in a double room, and my brothers had a twin room all with tea/coffee facilities, tv and shower room with towels and complimentary shower gel, shampoo & soaps. The bed was so comfortable and as we couldn’t open the window they had left us a fan on in the room which was so thoughtful as it was a very warm day and room was so cool. We decided to eat at the Cromwell Arms as when we stayed last year the food was very good and homemade with great quality produce. I had the Sirloin & King Prawn, husband had Katsu Chicken Curry & Rice, and my Brothers the Homemade Beefburger all delicious. So full after we couldn’t even manage a pudding which i was really looking forward to as they had my favourite Melt in the middle chocolate fondant and ice cream but will definitely leave room next time we are down which should be hopefully round beginning of June.
Breakfast in the morning was absolutely delicious. I had Eggs Benedict, and the rest had a Full English. The Cromwell Arms is a lovely friendly pub and felt very welcomed. Thanks again x

Nice hotel in a nice town. Good that it has parking. Breakfast was also good. No problems at all with our stay. Comfortable room, quieter than might be expected next to the bar.

NIGHT AWAY ON BUSINESS
Food was brill inc the breakfast. Room was on top floor of the pub. Room was clean & tidy. About right for the £. Have to support these pubs as they need tyhe business rather than the National big players that are so impersonal. The staff were attentive as well.
