Cbh Ilsington Country Hotel

Beautiful boutique hotel in a fabulous building. Staff were exceptionally polite, helpful & well trained. Food was excellent evening meal and breakfast. We used the Spa facilities which were as good as any we’ve been to. Will come back when working this way in the next few weeks.

We loved our stay here. Everyone was so friendly and the hotel is very welcoming and cosy, with a home-from-home feel. The food at the restaurant is very high-quality, with beautiful local ingredients and a fantastic view of Hay Tor. They dealt brilliantly with allergies/intolerances, which was much appreciated. Thoroughly recommend going here!

Had another relaxing stay at Ilsington. The food and service remain excellent. While the Spa and pool are as inviting as always. All the staff are friendly, efficient and helpful.

Stayed for one night for a spa break. The spa and pool area is the nicest one I have seen in a hotel. The lounge and bar areas are nicely decorated and full of character. We ate in the restaurant, the food was okay but nothing special. Breakfast was about the same standard as dinner. The bedroom was good overall, the bathroom being the highlight with the massive bath. We had a twin deluxe, I do feel for the price the bed frame and headboards were a bit tired and in need of replacement. The outside of the windows were quite dirty. However good refreshments were available in the room. The staff were all excellent, very professional and helpful. Location good, but you need to drive to access any walks.

The staff were exceptionally efficient, welcoming and helpful. I was given information on the local walks and was helped to order a taxi when I left. The service from all staff was excellent. Food was good quality and the flapjacks in the room were delicious. The spa was also very good. Clean, good sized rooms. This is such a good place to stay if you are interested in walking on Dartmoor.

2 night stay in the middle of August. Ample parking, smooth check in process, up one floor in a small lift to our rather large room. Lovely decor and the fairly usual accompaniments found within the bathroom made for a welcoming experience. The bed was on the softer side for my liking but still comfortable to sleep on. The downside to the room was the lack of air conditioning. Overall a good room to pick. The grounds the hotel is situated are beautiful, during the sunny days we stayed there the building shone in all its glory with all staff members warm and welcoming. We visited the spa midway through our stay, we can’t comment on the treatments as we didn’t opt to have any this time round, the pool area was clean and well maintained. Now time for the showstopper. The in house dining experience at this establishment is nothing short of spectacular. Please make sure you plan and book at least one meal here, starting off in a lounge area just off of the main reception you’re given your menus, asked if you’d like some drinks and a small bowl of nibbles. It’s advisable to arrive in the lounge a little bit before the time you booked your table to allow you to make the most of the experience. Once ordered, you’re then escorted through to the dining room, which is well laid out and has an extraordinary view. Once at the table, enjoy the truly exquisite food! I apologise for not being able to single out individual members of staff, the staff we interacted with were incredible!
