Dartington Hall has a lovely vibe. Stunning surrounds and very helpful, friendly staff. Dinner and breakfast were fabulous quality in a lovely building. The grounds were superb and the discount card helped with the expenses! Room was fairly basic and thin walls between the rooms. Having our own loo and shower across the corridor was a pain but we got used to it! The Dartington estate is lovely and we could walk into Totnes which was a bonus! We would stay again.

The evening meal options could have had more choice for those who don’t eat red meat or are allergic to cheese. Also the menu was the same each day - we stayed for three nights. When our room was serviced we did not receive clean cups on one occasion. We had not realised there was no lift - we’re in our 70s.

Dartington Hall, although a lovely place with helpful and friendly staff, is not really suitable for people with mobility problems as there are steps and cobbles outside and stairs inside ( no lifts) plus very heavy doors to open. All of this is difficult with a walker and would be impossible with a wheelchair. Able-bodied visitors will enjoy their stay however, and I would recommend Dartington Hall to them.

Highly recommend.
Friendly reception and a lovely room, very clean and comfortable. Impressive buildings and grounds with access to the gardens included in the price of the stay. The on-site pub was great and in a characterful old part of the house. The breakfast was hosted in the pub and was a generous buffet-style hot breakfast with all the trimmings – really good value. Totnes is a short and easy walk, well paved and well lit so no problems going into the town at night for a gig and returning to the hotel after a couple of drinks. Would stay again if visiting the area and recommend it to all.

Such a huge disappointment! We have stayed here for many years and it has always been beautiful, inside and out, but this time has definitely put us off ever coming back. Firstly our bathroom sink was full of water with the plug open and the toilet when flushed rose to the top and didn’t go away. I went and explained this to the customer service team who then came to look and agreed all was not right. They then tried to find us another room but they didn’t have any that were clean, so they said that they would personally have to clean one. We were going out for dinner so they had time to sort the problem. When we came back we found that we had a larger room but the toilet and separate shower were across the corridor and accessible with separate keys; nightmare in the middle of the night! Staff had finished at 8pm so there was no one to discuss this with. The toilet and shower were so grimy that I have taken photos which I intend to escalate, so much so, that today we left without showering in preference for having one when we got home. Sadly the staff on our first night couldn’t really be bothered. And it was obviously a huge inconvenience for them to have to clean a room, make a bed and change our luggage over. I have to say that the staff in the bar late at night when we collected our new room key and the breakfast staff were so lovely in complete opposition to the day staff. This sadly makes the Premier Inn look Premier.

It doesn’t pretend to be a luxury hotel and it’s not, but what it is is a unique and beautiful situation, a chance to be in the centre of culture and history. Clean room, friendly staff.

Stunning building, room was great and comfortable, I didn't have a bathroom in my room but the one I used was for my bedroom and another one exclusively, which was really convenient. It was quiet, the bed was comfy, there is a couple of dinning options which are great. A plus for the cinema as well. I would have stay longer.

Slightly disappointed!
There was no heating and the room was quite cold. There was no heated towel rail in the bathroom so the towels didn’t dry and weren’t changed even though we stayed for 3 nights! Impossible to wash your face in the basin as there was a glass shelf above and there was no room for your head! Mould and cobwebs on window. Shower was very weak and it took ages to was my hair! Breakfast was not nearly as good as on our last stay!
