Everything! We were so sad to leave. We love travel so have stayed in some amazing hotels across the world (including other Relais & Chateaux properties), but after our stay at Gidleigh Park, we realized this might have been the BEST hotel ever - even including some very special Japanese ryokans.
What made it so wonderful:
- The staff were all so genuinely nice. We had a lot of odd requests (since I’m pregnant and my husband has very specific dietary preferences), and I’m sure they secretly thought we were total weirdos, but they did a great job covering this up - no request was too strange! Examples: 1.) my husband became addicted to Innocent smoothies during our stay in England and insisted on having some every day (…even in a Michelin-starred hotel), so they kept them in the fridge for us and brought out the bottles whenever he wanted to pour a glass; 2.) I went down each morning to have breakfast but my husband prefers to sleep in, so I would request a takeaway homemade croissant for him. This request alone wasn’t too bad perhaps, but the croissants were so good warmed up, so we would later request to have them warmed right before he ate them - which they kindly did…
- The food is SUPERB - I could’ve eaten for weeks straight just at the casual lounge (we’d normally try the formal restaurant too, but saving this for next time when I have fewer pregnancy food restrictions, to fully enjoy!). Best Eggs Benedict I’ve ever had, with perfectly poached golden-orange yolks (I’ve only ever seen such perfect eggs before in Japan), sumptuous afternoon tea, truffled cheese soufflé, really good strong pots of Earl Grey and Mini Pu Erh Cake (!) tea, amazing fresh fish and brothy beans… all in a cozy casual living room/conservatory setting where they let you open the patio doors, or sit outdoors (very nice if you’re being extra Covid-cautious while pregnant like me)!

I loved this little village, enough to keep me interested.

Ate at both The Three Crowns and Chagford Inn, both of which were excellent.

Beautiful scenery, captivating rivers and hillsides, quiet and peaceful. National Trust areas and Castle Drogo very nearby so lots to enjoy and learn something of the background and history to the area. Lovely walks and bird song abound!

Excellent choice of places to eat, pubs and cafes. Good range of shops with butchers and bakers as well as a Spar convenience store.
Bowden hardware was a real highlight, an alladins cave... Something for everyone!
The main reason for our visit was the local walks, Fenworthy Reservoir and Castle Drogo were two we enjoyed, would go further next time.
Very dog friendly area.

Such a pretty market town, Lots of independent shop and cafes. Plenty of scenic walks. Chagford has an outdoor fresh water swimming pool set in very scenic surroundings. Breath taking views of the surrounding countryside. The town itself is bursting to the seams with very old buildings and cottages (some thatched) and is steeped in history.
The Three Crowns is a beautiful property with wonderful character. It is very comfortable and well furnished with excellent facilities, great food and a great atmosphere. Its location in the pretty village of Chagford provides both a rural setting but also a nearby connection to the A30 main road from where you then have ease to visit and explore other parts of Devon.
The jewels in the Three Crowns are the staff ... every single one of them. Welcoming, friendly and helpful. They made our stay extra special. Thank you to everyone.
Everything! The grounds were lovely the hotel well kept and the atmosphere was instantly welcoming and relaxing.
The outlaws thoroughly approved which was a gold star for me and my 7 year old daughter was made to feel so welcome.
The level of service was the best we have experienced even higher than previous stays at the savoy and lanesborough in London which we didn’t think could be beaten!
Food was delicious room comfortable we genuinely found it impossible to criticise anything!
The staff were very welcoming and attentive which I appreciated as I was a solo visitor. The superior twin room was more like a suite with a beautiful view overlooking the Church and grounds. I really enjoyed my evening meal by the fireplace and the food was delicious and affordable. Chagford is a magical place, absolutely stunning. I felt that my bedroom, the small details such as dressing gowns, quality of furnishings were really five star quality.
The Globe Inn is definitely eclectic and has its own style - but even though the decor was not to my taste the place was immaculate, the staff were really lovely, we had one of the best roasts we've ever had and the breakfast was lovely. Lots of spare pillows, beautiful little village with some really sweet local attractions like Castle Drogo and if you have young children the Miniature pony centre is just down the road and a really lovely day out.
Everything is so stylish yet simple, and beautifully curated in the bedrooms and the cafe. We had a great sleep in a gorgeous room, and a tasty and generous breakfast of poached eggs with bacon, and with avocado for breakfast.
It was such a treat to be hosted by Posy and Matt; every moment and every detail of our short visit was truly exceptional, we couldn’t have chosen a better place to stay in Chagford.
Greeted on arrival by Cheryl, whom we saw often the next 48 hours and who made a very good place special. All the staff, in fact, were friendly and competent. The room was a little small, but very comfortable, nonetheless. Great to have a parking space behind the hotel. The breakfasts were outstanding. Perfect base for enjoying the moors of Dartmoor.
A stunning homely stay in beautiful surroundings. Chagford is idyllic and has superb and interesting shops. We loved our stay. We felt so very welcomed by our host and within the village of Chagford. A very arty, relaxed, friendly and up-market feel with excellent everyday shops mixed in with amazing artisan shops. Something for everyone.
Wrenscott is a super little cottage. Very compact but with enough space for a couple to enjoy a lovely stay. The location is fantastic it is just a short walk into Chagford which has great pubs, shops, cafes and little stores.
Great location, friendly staff, outstanding food, and large comfortable room. Parking was very short walk to the hotel and reasonably priced. Definitely recommend Three Crowns.
