Everything! We were so sad to leave. We love travel so have stayed in some amazing hotels across the world (including other Relais & Chateaux properties), but after our stay at Gidleigh Park, we realized this might have been the BEST hotel ever - even including some very special Japanese ryokans.
What made it so wonderful:
- The staff were all so genuinely nice. We had a lot of odd requests (since I’m pregnant and my husband has very specific dietary preferences), and I’m sure they secretly thought we were total weirdos, but they did a great job covering this up - no request was too strange! Examples: 1.) my husband became addicted to Innocent smoothies during our stay in England and insisted on having some every day (…even in a Michelin-starred hotel), so they kept them in the fridge for us and brought out the bottles whenever he wanted to pour a glass; 2.) I went down each morning to have breakfast but my husband prefers to sleep in, so I would request a takeaway homemade croissant for him. This request alone wasn’t too bad perhaps, but the croissants were so good warmed up, so we would later request to have them warmed right before he ate them - which they kindly did…
- The food is SUPERB - I could’ve eaten for weeks straight just at the casual lounge (we’d normally try the formal restaurant too, but saving this for next time when I have fewer pregnancy food restrictions, to fully enjoy!). Best Eggs Benedict I’ve ever had, with perfectly poached golden-orange yolks (I’ve only ever seen such perfect eggs before in Japan), sumptuous afternoon tea, truffled cheese soufflé, really good strong pots of Earl Grey and Mini Pu Erh Cake (!) tea, amazing fresh fish and brothy beans… all in a cozy casual living room/conservatory setting where they let you open the patio doors, or sit outdoors (very nice if you’re being extra Covid-cautious while pregnant like me)!

Attention to detail. Perfectly maintained. Classy.
Built around the famous South Zeal Menhir Standing Stone, this 12th-century manor house is set in its own 4-acre monastery gardens in a pretty Devonshire village.
Excellent choice of places to eat, pubs and cafes.
Excellent choice of places to eat, pubs and cafes. Good range of shops with butchers and bakers as well as a Spar convenience store.
Bowden hardware was a real highlight, an alladins cave... Something for everyone!
The main reason for our visit was the local walks, Fenworthy Reservoir and Castle Drogo were two we enjoyed, would go further next time.
Very dog friendly area.

Such a pretty market town, Lots of independent shop and cafes. Plenty of scenic walks. Chagford has an outdoor fresh water swimming pool set in very scenic surroundings. Breath taking views of the surrounding countryside. The town itself is bursting to the seams with very old buildings and cottages (some thatched) and is steeped in history.

Chagford is a small town east of Dartmoor with plenty of thriving independent shops. Several pubs including the Three Crowns. An art shop/bookshop, art galleries, great deli and a wool shop, not selling wool specifically but selling wool en products.
Plenty of walks in all directions from the town.

The historic charm and its peaceful location made this a magical experience, full of the village experience. Staying in a pub for the first time, we loved the friendly and casual atmosphere shared with locals. It was almost like visiting family. Just about the entire village is within walking distance. Parking was a bit difficult, especially when raining, but that's common for a small village.
The cottage was adorable. Lots of lovely touches like a tray laid out for tea when we arrived. The bed was incredibly comfortable which was wonderful. Beautiful garden with added bonus of some rosemary and thyme in pots for cooking. Chagford is a great place to be based, four good pubs, butcher, two bakeries, a dairy, Spar, couple of farm shops and several cafes. We didn't use the car once while we were visiting as there were enough walking options to keep us busy. Frances and Peter were great hosts.
The Globe Inn is definitely eclectic and has its own style - but even though the decor was not to my taste the place was immaculate, the staff were really lovely, we had one of the best roasts we've ever had and the breakfast was lovely. Lots of spare pillows, beautiful little village with some really sweet local attractions like Castle Drogo and if you have young children the Miniature pony centre is just down the road and a really lovely day out.
The room we stayed in was fabulous. The layout was good as was the decor. The room had a coffee pod machine in, with pods and coffee bags too, along with a range of other hot drinks. There was also a fan and fascinating wall art that had photos of the town from yesteryear. Good choice of food for dinner from the restaurant as well as breakfast. Staff friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend and would stay here again.
Everything is so stylish yet simple, and beautifully curated in the bedrooms and the cafe. We had a great sleep in a gorgeous room, and a tasty and generous breakfast of poached eggs with bacon, and with avocado for breakfast.
It was such a treat to be hosted by Posy and Matt; every moment and every detail of our short visit was truly exceptional, we couldn’t have chosen a better place to stay in Chagford.
Staff went above and beyond - when our car broke down and we were late returning to the hotel, Dave the barman stayed up late to let us in and welcomed us in with a glass of wine.
Lovely situation - our room was fantastic - it felt like a suite to ourselves at the top of the hotel overlooking the church.
Dinner was delicious - would highly recommend a stay here and we will be back
Had a great sunday lunch in a very nice attentive environment. The location of Chagford in Dartmoor is awesome. The room was above adequate very comfortable. Breakfast was above the normal with choice and beautifully prepared cooked. so it was great.
Accommodations were quite comfortable. Location with view of the churchyard was lovely. We especially appreciated the shower. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Meals—breakfast, dinner—we’re excellent.
Breakfast not applicable. There are great cafes in Chagford so it was good to take a walk before breakfast. However dinner was fantastic and my dog and I were made to feel most welcome.
Great location, friendly staff, outstanding food, and large comfortable room. Parking was very short walk to the hotel and reasonably priced. Definitely recommend Three Crowns.
