Perfect place to explore Dartmoor, so quiet and relaxing , great room ,great bed ! Lovely host and good breakfast. Clean , well equipped,  comfortable . On a working Dartmoor farm down a no through road lane in the heart of the Moor, great dark skies, and walks directly onto the Moor

Relaxing break.

We spent a fantastic week at Tor Royal and can’t recommend it highly enough.  Justine gave us a warm welcome and helpful tips throughout our stay. Nothing was too much trouble.  Fantastic historic building in a beautiful location. It felt homely and comfortable immediately and so peaceful .  We were there during a heatwave which meant our room (Cosy Courtyard) was pretty warm! Justine gave us a sheet as the quilt was too much for us and provided a tower fan. The room is ‘cosy’ but has everything you need (wardrobe, kettle & drinks, small fridge, hairdryer & tv) and the shower is out of this world! After 3 nights we were given the option to upgrade to the Garden Room as it was cooler and was going to be empty. It is very spacious and has a microwave + larger fridge as well as a king size bed. It also has 2 easy chairs and door to a private courtyard/garden area.  Breakfast was good - nice selection of fruit, cereals, yoghurts and toast plus a cooked option. We’re both vegetarians and this was no problem. The breakfast room is beautiful and the views from it are wonderful.  We originally booked here because of the proximity to Princetown so that we could walk here for our evening meals, however one pub is up for sale and the other closed due to Covid. We ended up doing the short drive to Yelverton to eat at The Rock most evenings. Good basic pub food.  Our favourite place was Tavistock though - also a short drive and a lovely market town. It was too hot to do the moorland walks we’d planned so we visited several reservoirs + Lydford Gorge - definitely worth a visit. The biggest challenge was the roads which were often so narrow you had to reverse quite a way so cars could pass! It took about 3 days to get in to the groove, but the views everywhere you go are breathtaking. All in all a wonderful break and we can’t wait to return!

Highly recommended

Returning to celebrate our wedding anniversary, this time with two horses and a dog in tow! Pubs were closed (thank you covid) so Justine cooked a delicious supper for us on our first evening. Stabling and grazing were available and the horses soon settled. Our dog decided that life as a farm dog was very acceptable and our room was delightful with a door out to a small enclosed garden. We slept so well despite it being three of the hottest days of the year, breakfast was delicious and the possibilities of riding or walking out onto the moor are fantastic. We were unlucky to pick a week when one  pub was closed and the other closed down in Princetown which is a good walk up the road from Tor Royal ( spectacular views) but we ate in The Fox Tor cafe at lunchtime and had a trip to Tavistock on the other day. We rode, walked and even found places to swim and had a few days of Dartmoor adventure, based at friendly and comfortable Tor Royal.

Wonderful location

If you are looking for a hotel off the beaten track in Dartmoor, this is recommended.
Down a half mile lane from the main road (be aware of that walk when walking too and from the village to eat!), the hotel is a large old house in farmland.
You are certainly isolated and if you are looking for some peace and quiet, this will certainly give you it.

The room was spacious, clean and with functional accessories and toiletries, but zero to complain about.
Breakfast was down in a grand old dinning room, with tables laid out in a way to maximize the social distancing and the food was freshly cooked and very tasty.
We felt very welcome and at home here and it made a nice chilled escape from the cities and towns elsewhere.

As a bonus, if its your thing, astro-photography is very very possible from here as its that remote.

Isolated

Wonderful couple of days, lovely host, very welcoming. Great room on second floor,Wallace, great views.Very tasty breakfast, nothing is too much trouble. Had one evening meal which was delicious, stew and dumplings with rhubarb crumble and custard for pud,highly recommended!!! We will definitely be back!!!

Wonderful!

A lovely place to get away from the madness of our normal lives, it’s in the middle of nowhere, but just close enough to walk to Prince Town for food and beverages.

The host is fantastic and will help with anything you need, the breakfast is great hot or cold, and the rooms are clean and characterful.

We would visit here again as it was a great base for us to explore both Devon and Cornwall.

Thank you for a lovely time.

True isolation 

Really helpful and friendly. The room (Lilly) was clean, tidy and comfortable and the setting was lovely. The breakfasts were really lovely and nothing seemed too much trouble. Would make a great wedding venue too.

Lovely place!

Great place to stay, full of character, welcoming owners, very helpful and friendly, good home cooked food, an evening meal is definitely recommended, beautiful surroundings with gorgeous walks on the doorstep

Excellent

Justine is amazing, she was so kind and helpful throughout our stay. Our room was spacious and had useful amenities like a bath, microwave, tea facilities, mini fridge and flatscreen with Netflix and Prime setup. Location-wise you are near great walks, amid beautiful Dartmoor countryside, and can walk to the pub and tourist centre. The farm itself is peaceful and quiet - all you hear is the animals. Dog/cat/horse lovers will be in heaven here. Breakfast is lovely. Also very reasonable price.

Perfect romantic getaway

We stayed here for two nights and would have loved to stay longer, which our schedule unfortunately didn't permit. Tor Royal is perfectly located within Dartmoor and it's only a short drive to the major attractions. The Building which houses the B&B is absolutely gorgeous and the rooms are beautifully furnished. We enjoyed every second of our stay. The hosting family is very helpful and friendly. Oh, and the breakfast was amazing!! We'd love to stay here again someday.
