“A really wonderful escape in deepest, leafy Dartmoor”
+Stunning property, set in acres of gorgeous grounds with lots to do (including an immaculate pool), friendly and chatty staff and really good food.

“This is not a cheap getaway so prepare yourself for a luxurious experience in a wonderful location!”
+We have visited Bovey Castle for more than 20yrs and have seen many changes over that time. Fortunately Bovey Castle still remains an absolute treasure in the most wonderful piece of countryside.
−As a result of the management changes things do change - care should be taken by the Bovey staff to maintain a good knowledge of how to light and keep alight a fire in a fireplace - it's sooooo important to be able to sit by the fire. Also we had a particularly unfortunate breakfast experience where the food had definitely been left under a heater for way too long and was inedible. This sort of lack of attention really does leave the wrong sort of memory.

“Wonderful extremely relaxing”
+Very relaxing great place to unwind. Lovely location . Plenty to do if you don’t want to drive.
−As it wasn’t full it was difficult at times to find bar staff you had to locate them if you wanted to place an order. I also think if you don’t want to eat in the restaurant that there should be a Lounge menu served up to 9.00pm if you just want a sandwich etc

“Overpriced, beautiful but very disappointing food spoilt the trip.”
+The bed was comfortable and the castle and grounds were mainly nice.
−The food was overpriced and really below standard. We cancelled our dinner reservation for the second night as it was really bad. The interior particularly the spa is dated. We had to wait for literally 20 minutes to be shown to our room whereas we could have just been given a key. We have been before but sadly we won't come back after this trip.

“Overall a wonderful special location and a great room, in much need of styling and food updating.”
+The Room was really nice and comfortable, with amazing views. The lounges and hallways were very impressive in style and deco ( although not all areas, lots of very dated styling also in the building still)
−The coffee was terrible at breakfast, the breakfast was really basic for the price. The brasserie was really expensive for the basic food and dessert options. Pana Cotta was a hard jelly, with a really weak and watery and bad strawberry puree. The deco in some part of the hotel including the main dinning room are very dated, including dated glass signage everywhere in corridors including the reception. Some area in the corridors upstairs had really tacky cheap fake flowers in a vase. The swimming pool needs updating in style, plus the swimming times for kids is too short not allowing them to swim after 5pm, should be atleast 6-6.30pm. The kids play area is really far from the grounds. past the golf course! Also needs a bespoke room for the kids in the main lounges of the castle.
