Hidden gem
Sheer luxury. Wish we could have stayed longer.
Porsche Weekend Away
A beautiful drive down to the hotel past the golf course to the castle started a fantastic stay at the hotel, a warm welcome was given as we arrived and we were soon shown to our rooms. They were perfect. Our deal included breakfast and evening meal and the food was very nice our only gripe was that the menu never changed and they did not do a special etc. each night so you could have a different choice. I particularly do not like fish and at least 70% of the menu had fish even the soup was fish. This then meant on my 4 night stay i had to have the same food on a couple of nights. The food was excellent but i do like a bit more choice. The location was great for all the places we wanted to visit. Well worth the stay
Beautiful Bovey
We have been to stay at Bovey Castle a few times . We have stayed in the main hotel and also the lodges.
I feel the lodges are perfect for families with small children but the Castle is great for couples.
The staff are friendly and even though we had small children with us this time they were very accommodating.
The rooms were beautiful but the lack of drawers in our room caused a bit of an inconvenience.
It is not a cheap holiday but always feels as though you have been somewhere special.
You couldn t ask for a more picturesque setting. I am sure we will return

How to get here
Bovey Castle is situated in the beautiful Dartmoor National Park, in the heart of Devon. The hotel is easy to locate, just 45 minutes drive from Exeter International Airport and 40 minutes from Exeter St David's Station. Arrive in style and arrange for one of the hotel cars to collect you.
By car
The M4 from London, the M6 from the North West and the M1/M42 from the North East all link up to the M5, which will bring you south to Devon.
From the M5, take junction 31 signposted A30 Okehampton. Stay on the A30 for 16 miles, exiting at Whiddon Down and the junction signposted Moretonhampstead A382. The road passes a service station with a garage on the right, at the first roundabout turn left, still following signs for Moretonhampstead A382.
Stay on the A382 for 5.5 miles and at the roundabout just before Moretonhampstead, turn right to follow signs for Postbridge and Princetown, marked B3212. At the mini roundabout, go straight over and at the next roundabout, turn right again and follow signs for Postbridge and Princetown, B3212.
Stay on the B3212 for approximately 1.5 miles, Bovey Castle is on the left-hand side marked by large wrought iron gates and a lodge. If you are using SatNav, please enter 'Bovey Castle Golf Course.'

Location & Local Attractions
There is so much to do at Bovey with its own activities, you must try and make time for the local attractions like the Becky Falls Woodland Park which is only 15mins away and has been welcoming visitors since 1903. It has been voted Devon's top beauty spot and one of WWF's amazing family days out - with the breathtaking waterfalls and baby meerkats it is definitely worth a visit.
The Rock Gardens, Caves and Nursery are set in the old Palace Quarry where the parkland has been landscaped by Capability Brown. With views over Dartmoor and caves to explore it includes the rare maidenhair tree (Ginkgo Biloba) and is under a 10 minute drive away.
The hotel is situated in Dartmoor National Park which is a unique attraction with the most magnificent views and walks all on the doorstep.
