Why we love it

The setting

Bovey Castle sits inside Dartmoor National Park, about a kilometre from the village of North Bovey in Devon. The manor house dates from the early 1900s and keeps its panelled corridors, big bay windows and open fireplaces. Grounds run out to moorland and rolling green hills, so the views from the rooms reach well past the gardens. It is roughly 29 km from Exeter International Airport, which makes the drive in straightforward.

What to expect

The Standard Double room comes with a full double bed and a private bathroom, and the rate is room only, so you can add breakfast or dinner when you book. Inside the house there is an indoor pool, a spa, a wood-panelled bar and a formal restaurant under chandeliers. Public rooms keep the country-house feel: deep armchairs, fireplaces and tall windows looking onto the park.

Things to do nearby

The hotel is surrounded by Dartmoor, so walking trails and open moor start close to the door. North Bovey village is about a kilometre away for a pint and a wander. A golf course sits within 3 km. For wider trips, Exeter International Airport is 28.9 km off and Plymouth Airport is 33.3 km, both within easy reach by car for a day out or onward travel.

Best for

Couples after a quiet two nights in the country, walkers who want Dartmoor on the doorstep, and anyone who likes a grand old manor with a pool, spa and proper dining.
