What a find! We were referred by a local hotel and it didn’t disappoint. Great welcome, superb service and truly amazing food. Attention to detail and care for the customer experience (even during Covid) was second to none. Well worth the windy roads to get there!

We had a wonderful time here! The food was delicious and the atmosphere was lovely. They were also extremely kind to our puppy. They made him feel welcome and even gave him treats. We were really pleased with how they treated him!! Thanks so much for a great evening!

We enjoyed lunch at The Rock Inn. We had nibbles to start with (white bait and tempura prawns) which are small portion starters, followed by risotto and a salad. Dessert was whipped chocolate with peanut butter ice cream. The Eat Out scheme made the bill very reasonable (tip is added before the discount). We felt safe, C19 procedures in place, one way system. Lovely historic building and a pretty garden across the road.

We had dinner here and both of us really enjoyed the quality food. Every course of our 3 course meal, plus nibbles, was excellent. The service was also great and they were mindful of Covid restrictions.

5/ 5

If you want smart modern and trendy this is not for you. If you are looking for bags of character, comfortable, chipped at the edges in a small charming village right on the edge of stunning Dartmoor, then this is the place for you. The Rock Inn is warm and welcoming and oozes old fashioned charm. The staff are fantastic. The bar selection is superb and the food is exquisite. The menu is very tight, but boy oh boy prepare yourself for a culinary delight. Truly delicious. The bedrooms ooze old fashioned charm, chipped at the edges but very comfortable. We wish we could have stayed longer. An easy recommendation

We are great fans of The Rock and try to treat ourselves for a one night stay when on Dartmoor. It was lovely to be back. Only negative point was the two "senior" women talking about washing habits and female genitalia while we were having dinner. They seemed completely unaware of their surroundings.

5/ 5

This time last week we were enjoying a couple of drinks in the fantastic garden after a bracing walk over the Tors and looking forward to our second meal in the restaurant and our second night of a five night stay. This place is fabulous - the food is fantastic, the rooms are comfortable and clean (we had one of the rooms in the roof and surprisingly I did NOT bang my head once)! and the service is impeccable. With so many 'faceless' hotels it was thoroughly refreshing to find an establishment that was so personal - it was perfect. A massive thank you to Sue and the team, particularly Sharon who is brilliant. A little gem in the heart of Dartmoor that we will definitely be coming back to.

Can't quite explain just how good the food is here. Possibly the best 3 course meal we have ever had. The chef is a taste wizard. The service and staff were also great. Dog friendly too. If you are visiting the area, walking or climbing or whatever you end up doing you must visit here!!

The food was delicious and the setting is delightful. A charming old inn with nooks and crannies and interesting decor. The staff were all really friendly and looked after us well. A dog-friendly place too. Worth a trip down the lanes for lunch for sure!
