Room very clean and tidy. Little warm in room, sash window kept closing under its own weight. This meant room got hotter. Managed to wedge it open :-) We eat in bar and food was plenty and good quality. I was a little disappointed finding out room payment was already taken upon booking despite card used as guarantee only with 'payment on arrival' selected, also an additional charge for dog taken that was unaware of. However charges were reasonable. Overall impression was good and with it being dog friendly and esse of parking - we would come back..(if we're allowed) :-)

Full English breakfast was good, however, portion got smaller by the day. Rooms were clean but basic. Bar staff were in need of customer service courses, found it very difficult to get them to chat or smile. The locals were very friendly and made us welcome. Will visit again but will stay elsewhere

The food is lovely and the personal great. Servicing of the bedrooms is ‘if you want it, not the norm’. It would be advantageous to change this. Slept well in the comfy bed and liked being close to all village amenities and lovely walks nearby.

Booked The Cromwell Arms for a 3 night stay with my husband. I came down to Devon to visit my Dad who lives quite near so this place was ideal for us. On arrival this is a very quaint looking establishment and quite a few places at the rear for Free parking too. We booked in and shown to our room. We were both pleasantly surprised. The double room was really beautiful, with en suite, shower and plenty of towels and complimentary s/poo, s/gel soap and body cream which i thought was so nice. We had a good size tv on the wall and plenty of choice of channels plus (Netflix, prime ect). We had a wardrobe in the room, a dressing table and chair plus a comfy big chair too. Tea, coffee making facilities and a super comfy clean bed to which we both slept very well. In the morning you are provided with a choice of cooked breakfast to which i must say was excellent produce and home cooked. We also had a few meals here too and have to say the Sunday Lunch was delicious and both of us had Roast Beef with all the trimmings, we even managed a pudding each. Melt in the middle Chocolate cake with ice cream, Barry had Mixed Fruit Crumble with Custard. Must say after drinks and coffee we were totally full. I have to mention the owners Tom and Debbie as they made us feel very welcome. It was like staying with family, staff are so polite and welcoming too. The Cromwell Arms has 14 rooms. We stayed in room 4 (front). Thanks again Tom, Debbie & Staff see you very soon. Mandy&Barry ♥️xxxx

Inn on the way up with new business owners
This was my first stay at the Cromwell for a number of years. The new business operators were very professional and friendly and are working hard to improve the condition and quality of the accommodation. Breakfast was excellent, cooked to order and nothing was too much trouble. The locals provide a lively atmosphere and a good range of ales, food and other drinks are available. The pub offers a value for money stay ideal for exploring Dartmoor and not too far from the coast, Exeter or Plymouth.
