Lydford House - West Devon

We spent one night at this restaurant and will definitely be returning. We enjoyed having a candlelit tea by the fire next to the twinkling Christmas tree. The honeycomb served at breakfast, which was harvested from their own bees, was incredibly delicious. The room was well-lit and the bathroom products were high quality.

I had an amazing experience at this hotel. The staff were very friendly and the rooms were beautiful. The lounge had a great view overlooking Dartmoor, and you could cozy up next to the log burner and play board games if the weather wasn't ideal. The breakfast was delicious, whether you opted for the full English or just the porridge. I would definitely book this hotel again and highly recommend it.

After waiting a long time for our plates to be cleared, we decided to leave as it was already 8:30pm and we had been at the table for an hour and a half. I asked for the bill at the reception and was pleasantly surprised to see that we were only charged for the drinks. The waitress handled the situation well, apologizing repeatedly even though she was new. It would have been more appropriate for a manager to address the issues instead of leaving it to a new staff member in such circumstances. Based on our experience and recent reviews, it seems that something went wrong that evening. It was disappointing to have driven an hour for a celebratory meal only to have such a disappointing experience. We do not plan on returning to this restaurant.

I stayed at the Lydford House Hotel and decided to have dinner there. The food and atmosphere were excellent. There was a great variety of menu options. After dinner, I enjoyed some drinks with newly made friends in the lounge, where the owner had lit a cozy fire for us. It was a fantastic experience from beginning to end.

My mother-in-law brought me and my two young daughters to this restaurant in the afternoon. I cannot recommend it highly enough. The staff was amazing, the atmosphere was beautiful, and the food was delicious. The restaurant is dog-friendly and even has a toy box to keep children entertained. I am so grateful that we live nearby, as this restaurant is a true gem!
