My wife and I enjoyed a very pleasant dinner at Lydford. It was a Sunday night and we were the only diners. The food was beautifully presented and tasty, and very reasonably priced, including the wine. Would recommend. More

Very friendly staff, nothing too much trouble. Very clean rooms. We met the owner who was also very friendly. We stayed in the superior... More

This is a lovely house set on the edge of Dartmoor, just a few minutes from the National Trust Lydford Gorge which is a beautiful walk; house is also right next door to the Granite way, a walk and cycle path that goes right out into the countryside. Our standard room was a bit small but had lots of storage... More

The WiFi didn't work very well and was not accessible in our room. I booked this... More

We booked one night here with our 3 year old as a stop over. We didn't need dinner so just enjoyed the garden and fed the ponies our left over apple cores on our first evening, which our son loved! There is also a trampoline and swing in the garden, and plenty of space to run around after a long... More

Our room was beautiful - very clean, very tasteful, with a lovely view out over the garden and the moors... More

My partner purchased a travel zoo voucher for the six course tasting menu for two. I can report that we were not disappointed. From entering the establishment we were shown through to the lounge with a roaring log fire and comfy sofas, where we were served a glass of bubbly and antree. The restaurant was inviting and laid out to... More

The job of a food reviewer is to accurately convey the tastes, textures, smells, presentation and enjoyability of food eaten at a restaurant. As a one such reviewer I had to write a comment on the food but also on the atmosphere. My experiences recorded from the time of entering the front door of Lydford Country House, to the finale...
