This is a bed and breakfast 16th century Inn on the main thoroughfare through Okehampton. The pub part is tired and in need of a refit. The riverside restaurant is no longer open so you sit in a small dining area for your food that is not inkeeping with what you would expect. I had an evening meal here and... More

Do NOT go here to stay or to eat. Went here for dinner in September '12, the restaurant was very quiet as was the garden/pub, we waited 1 hour and 5 minutes for our food to arrive and upon notifying the management of our disappointment at waiting we were met with a barrage of abuse from the OWNER! The other... More

We recently satyed here under the new mangement, and were made to feel very welcome by the new manager of the Fountain who has recently taken over this hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The Manager apologied as he thought they were 'tired' in his words, but personally, I thought they we light and airy, with comofrtable beds and... More

We had no apology, were shrugged at and treated with extreme indifference by a man who may or may not have been the new owner. It all of seemed to be... More

Very helpfull staff, room was lovely-clean spacious.Excellant value for money. Plenty of free parking. Bar warm and welcoming and impromptu music and singing with locals was really good fun!!

Situated on the main road going through Okehampton it easy to find & a good stop off when we go shopping there. As we live in Devon we do travel around to find good places to eat for when our...

I have stayed at The Fountain several times now and it is a truly fantastic place. The building is full of character and the courtyard garden is fabulous. Friendly staff, great food and a large selection of local ales make this one of my favourite places to stay when we are cycling in the area. The open fire is also... More

vert disapointed rooms grubby and shower mouldy rooms need doing up breakfast nice but to big windows bang al night and toilet very noisey

Great location, and friendly staff, but there it ends. This hotel has potential but it isn't being taken care of. Room...peeling wall paper, really mouldy shower cubicle, dirty carpets broken step, table lamp not working.... doesn't take a lot to correct any of these, if there is a will. Potentially good restaurant and food, but we waited for over 10... More
