Rooms were very well appointed with breath taking views across fields to Dartmoor it is a peaceful and idyllic spot. The beds were very comfortable and the rooms were a good size; they were very clean and had a homely feel. There were plenty of plug sockets, a TV and tea and coffee making facilities which we took advantage of. There was plenty of storage, although we didn't need this as we only stayed 1 night as we were attending a wedding.
The bathroom was spacious with a shower over the bath. We all took a shower in the morning and there was plenty of hot water. Toiletries were provided.
There was free WiFi also. The room felt secure as there was a yale lock and we had a key for each room.
We were able to park our car easily and the instructions given via text prior to our arrival, by Angela, were extensive we used Google Maps as our navigation and found the property easily.
We arranged our breakfast the day before. Angela was extremely welcoming and friendly, a perfect hostess. Breakfast was amazing - full English with a choice of egg types; juice, tea, coffee, toast, cereals, jams - you name it it was on offer - most delicious.

Most picturesque Inn surrounded by a wonderful lush garden with a stream running through. Lovely lawned area with deckchairs and huge patio so perfect for those guests with dogs. Such a warm welcome from Simon and his team on arrival. Room was spotlessly clean spacious and such a comfortable bed. Good sized bathroom too. Had dinner here both nights and both meals superb recommend the pinwheel sausages and the fish and chips. Simon is a great host and gave great advice on choice of options. Breakfast hamper was also plentiful with the best warm croissants and worth the extra to include breakfast. A relaxed atmosphere in the inn where nothing is too much trouble. Highly recommend and such a good price too

Lydford is a small village just off the A386 to the west of Dartmoor and south of Okehampton. Probably most famous for the Lydford gorge but the village itself has other attraction including Lydford Castle which is actually an old courthouse and prison and mounds from the Saxon town. There is also an ancient spring and numerous footpaths. It has a traditional village pub and there is a nearby farm shop. From the village it's possible to see and easily reach the moor with its Tors and ancient settlements, stone rows etc:

Lydford Gorge is a wonderful walk,(National Trust) challenging for some, in parts, with narrow slippery paths, hand rails provided where necessary. Not difficult, but care must be taken at all times when near the river.
The Castle Inn very good food and service.

Lydford and the surrounding areas have much to offer those who have never been before and those like myself who have either been before or worked in the area. Churchyards with interesting churchyards, monuments, Lydford Gorge. The space of Dartmoor for peaceful thoughts. Life is far too busy these days, lose yourself within this part of the country. You will return home feeling refreshed from visiting here...and have the need of a return.

The place was beautiful, and well worth going. The waterfall itself is huge and the walk around the trust is easy going and relaxing. Well worth going to the bird hide if you've got the time too :)

A epic quest through the gorge.
A epic quest through the gorge. Just enough adventure - well cared for paths, obvious routes, a map, but also challenging terrain, interesting nooks to explore and incredible scenery. Speak to the folks at the desk as they will give you tips. The devil's cauldron was shut due to off season renovation, so next time we go I'd like to see that - will definitely be back!
This was a beautiful hotel. The decor throughout was just lovely and it felt welcoming. For breakfast there was a good choice of food available and it tasted wonderful. The service was brilliant and the young lady who served us was so polite and helpful. We had a meal at one of the local pubs - The Castle - and the food there was delicious and again very good service by all the staff we had dealings with.
Found a gem on our way to Cornwall. So glad we found it. Really friendly, very welcoming, very accommodating. Great food - best steak pie! Great ambiance. Comfy bed. Fabulous breakfast. Dog friendly. Short walk up lane and onto Dartmoor. Classic character English Inn hotel. Loved our stay. Thank you Fox and Hound, you were great. Definitely will stay again. Longer next time to explore the area.
We enjoyed the peaceful and beautiful setting of the Linhay and its proximity to walks on the moors and the Lydford Gorge. It is also well-placed for visits to may locations further afield. The accommodation is comfortable and feels like a home. The welcome treats were very much appreciated. We wouldn't hesitate to return.
The staff were simply excellent - friendly and helpful at all times. The location is perfect for a quiet getaway - unfortunately there were high winds during my stay so Lydford Gorge and the Devil's Cauldron were both closed to the public. The room was very comfortable and the food was delicious.
Great location in a pretty village, surrounded by walks for all abilities. Perfect base for exploring the area, seaside, moorlands, woods and forests, granite way. Townend Barn is a home from home with lovely hosts just on the doorstep for help and advice. Perfect stay in Lydford.
Lydonia Barn is located right in the historic centre of Lydford with the gorge as well as the Castle Inn withing a short stroll. The Barn is well equipped, nicely furnished, very clean and incredibly quiet. The hosts gave us a very warm welcome.
Lovely hotel with gorgeous garden. Staff very welcoming & friendly. Rooms very nice and comfortable but a little small but it is an old Inn so is to be expected. Would definitely stay again.
Room was lovely. Excellent breakfast. Very pretty hotel and quiet location. Owners were very efficient and nice. Our dogs were welcome. We were able to breakfast in the lounge with them.
The lovely breakfast and the serene location. Room was very comfortable. Hosts were very accommodating and friendly. Lydford Gorge and the western tors of Dartmoor are very close.
Great location for Lydford and The Granite Way cycle path. Great host and a lovely breakfast. Big room, niice bathroom and a great view of the moor. Thanks Angela.
