“Overall an enjoyable holiday in a lovely locationThere were a few fairly minor issues; I had to unload the dishwasher On arrival and also rewash some of the items which hadn’t washed properly.”

The microwave had some dried on food so obviously hadn’t been cleaned and checked. One of the chopping boards was dirty. One of the frying pans was unusable as the base was loose. The roasting tin and baking tray were past their best and need replacing. The toilet seat in the middle bathroom was cracked. I felt the whole kitchen wasn’t up to the standard expected in a property of that price range. We did tell the hotel reception about these issues but nothing was done. I suppose we should ...

The microwave had some dried on food so obviously hadn’t been cleaned and checked. One of the chopping boards was dirty. One of the frying pans was unusable as the base was loose.

I felt the whole kitchen wasn’t up to the standard expected in a property of that price range. We did tell the hotel reception about these issues but nothing was done. I suppose we should have kept on at them but to be honest we had better things to do than keep going to reception every day and also it shouldn’t have been necessary. Also it might be an idea to mention that the property isn’t that suitable for people who have mobility problems. My husband has slight mobility problems and managed but the front entrance isn’t easy and there are 3 flights of open tread wooden stairs.

“An excellent holiday, combining the well equipped self catering accommodation with all the facilities of the hotel and grounds.”

“Our fifth visit to Bovey Castle, first time in Fingle Tor.”

The location of the lodge is perfect, accessible to all amenities but quiet and peaceful. The lodges are perhaps not the best layout for young families as there is a bedroom on each floor and lots of stairs. Some of the decor and fittings are starting to look a bit tired and could do with an update but overall the quality of everything is excellent and the lodge is well equipped. The bedrooms are all a good size and all en-suite, the top bathroom is stunning and you can lie in the bath and look at the stars! In terms of accommodation the only complaint was that the ground floor bedroom is quite dark. The setting and the hotel are absolutely beautiful and the whole site seems to effortlessly absorb guests so you never feel crowded and always seem to find a cosy space in one of the gorgeous lounges.

“Bovey Castle is a real find - it's the best of both worlds; the freedom of self-catering with all the fabulous facilities of the hotel.”

The whole place is truly special. The lodge was better equipped than we thought it would be. Really spacious with superb bedrooms. Can't wait to go again!

“Great property in a lovely location”

“The staff at Bovey Castle are lovely and very helpful.”

However, we felt that the property did lack certain comforts to be expected as standard in a property in this price range. In particular the sofas were extremely uncomfortable and more suitable to an airport waiting lounge. One was badly stained and had hastily been covered with a blanket to hide it. The TV was also quite old and way too small for the size of the room. It just felt as if the lodge needed a bit of TLC and a refresh. The bedrooms were lovely and the beds were super comfortable. The bathrooms were all a good size, although the shower door in the top bathroom had been damaged previously and was coming away from the frame. The staff at the hotel were all great and a credit to the hotel. We actually left to come home a day early as we couldn't hack the discomfort in the living area any longer. A shame as the grounds and the main hotel are fabulous.

“Fingle Tor was wonderful accommodation for 3 couples each huge bedroom having it's own ensuite bathroom.”

Plenty of seating both in the lounge and the kitchen diner. We loved having access to the hotel with its beautiful rooms. Made full use of the pool and golf course, oh and our spaniel had the time of his life exploring the fabulous grounds. An excellent holiday all round!

“Lovely lodge.”

Toaster could do with replacing and the door from the kitchen to outside kept jamming. Very minor things that didn't impact on our stay.

“The original helpful holidays 10/10 The new Helpful Holidays team 0/10.”

Little knowledge, no consistency in the following through of queries. Constant emails if you look at properties on site. Change over day now Friday not Saturday which results in additional holiday having to be taken. Additional booking charge now. Greedy commercial operation which resulted in us not extending the two weeks as we have in previous years. Bovey perfect as ever.

- Mrs Lindley-adsett, December 2018
