    With all the mentioned above, it would not put us off going again, as it was a delightful place

    The bed had ridges in it and was not terribly comfortable, the room was lovely but furniture tired, old and not of good quality. The room however was lovely and a nice view of the courtyard The breakfast was good but as I said above things started running out before the end of the stay.

    The setting and the hall was lovely, the rooms are rather shabby for such a lovely place and could do with updating. The breakfast on the first day was great, but gradually as the bank holiday went on, the food started to run out or was not replaced

    Aspects of the bathroom could do with a refresh or more thorough cleaning, for example signs of rust around the shower screen but this didn’t really affect our stay

    Amazing location, great value for money and the breakfast was absolutely perfect. Everyone was very helpful and friendly

    there were what could have been animal hairs on the throw at the bottom of the bed, the rooms are quite 'tired', the base of the bed was badly stained and the bath towel was all ragged down the edges

    Location, plenty of hot water, good clean bathroom. The breakfast was good with plenty of variety.

    A hook n the shower room for the dressing gown or towel would be useful, but that is being picky.

    First class breakfast, good polite and helpful staff in “the White heart”. I’ve known about Dartington Hall and it’s gardens since I was boy. So was not surprised by location and unusual accommodation. Apart from the stairs! I am now 73. That is not a complaint. Should have asked not to be on the third floor!

    Have to say that the coffee at breakfast was not very palatable,but the bagel place ,just a few yards away more than made up for this ! A small price to pay,I'd say.

    Dartington Hall was an amazing place. Incredibly beautiful,and having access to the wonderful gardens was the icing on the cake ! The staff were helpful and courteous. In particular,Katie,one of the receptionists went out of her way to help me during my stay,which meant an awful lot to me at a particularly difficult time. She's awesome ,and deserves a pay rise ! For a young aged (on the whole) staff,I found them all to be very pleasant,helpful and clearly enjoying their work. My stay was an incredibly positive experience,and I look forward to returning.
