Great service, highly recommended!

Stayed here before, hence why I’ve returned. The food is great, excellent range of beers and ciders. The staff are brilliant, they go above and beyond. I had to leave early in the morning, so they made me a breakfast barm to go, brilliant service. I’ll be back next time I’m in the area, highly recommend!

I was very happy with my stay at the Cromwell Arms. I booked late and had a room on the second floor, up very steep stairs. It was a struggle for me. Next time I will book earlier. The breakfast was very good. The staff were helpful

OK if you have to stay in Bovey.

Friendly staff and a nice breakfast. Dinner was mostly out of packets as far as I could tell, the rooms a bit tired with a fair bit of noise from the high street (not their fault!). A ridiculous sign saying you could only eat and drink things in your room purchased from the hotel - felt like flying Ryan Air.

Would go back but would not go in room 8! Two flights of stairs and the velux windows didn't have suitable blinds so woke at first light 4am , very hot weather so hot room , did provide a fan but too noisy, that's the same thing as everywhere in a heatwave , the staff were very helpful, food excellent, the breakfast was superb, lovely place when visiting family, would definitely recommend

Really nice bear garden to relax after a long days work, great local beers. The staff are absolutely amazing, go above and beyond. I visited on a business trip, having to leave early each day at 7am, thus missing breakfast. When the bar staff heard this, they arranged for a breakfast to go for me each morning. I thought this was a great touch, couldn’t ask for anymore. The food in the restaurant was outstanding, suck an enjoyable stay. The location has such character, floorboards creak, you name it but I’d definitely recommend 100%!!!

Ferry stop

We have used this place a couple of times for a stop off before getting the ferry in plymouth. Pleasant little town, the pub is comfortable and welcoming. We would certainly use it again.
