The East Dart Hotel

An award-winning traditional inn, complete with a log burner, The East Dart Hotel has served as a haven to weary travellers for the last 160 years. Run by a friendly family of four, the classic pub features create a folksy feel in a genuinely rustic environment.

For the hungry hiker, nothing is more welcoming than a warm meal. The menu is comprehensive and comprises meat and veg procured from the locale, dished out in hearty helpings. Particularly popular are the homemade steak and ale pie, and beer-battered fresh cod, served with your choice of potato and a selection of vegetables. Sunday sees the spread of a delicious carvery. All meat is locally sourced, and the hungry are welcome to fill up their plates. For strollers in need of strong ale, Hunter’s Best is often on tap, as is the Dartmoor Jail Ale, which has a reputation for being one of Britain’s best.

Extend your stay a few days and book the full bed and breakfast, rated first-class by visitors. The hotel is in an ideal position for any visitor to explore all that Dartmoor has to offer.
