Heathergate Cottage Dartmoor BnB, hotel in Lydford

Heathergate Cottage Dartmoor BnB is a working farm situated less than 1 mile from Lydford village in Dartmoor National Park.

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.

    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!

    The location in the centre of Lydford was great. Parking was directly opposite the property and access to the moors is simple. The property is self contained with a wood burning stove and this was already laid on arrival and ready to light. From the windows the moors are visible. If the weather had been better we had garden we could use. Lydford itself is a beautiful village with a lot of history and the wonderful Lydford Gorge is nearby within walking distance.

    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.

    A typical West Country rural inn! Perfect location for our short trip to Lydford Gorge and the Granite Way. Pretty close to Tavistock which has an interesting variety of shops. Landlord made some great suggestions for a day out. Inclusive breakfasts were great and an excellent varied (even for a couple of vegetarians!) evening meal menu meant we could eat (and drink!) in during our stay.

    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.
