A friend in Okehampton recommended this BB. I stayed in room 7. The room and bathroom were very clean. Staff were very helpful and professional. The price was a good value for money. I would recommend this BB. Looking forward to my next trip over to Devon.

We stayed for one night, very warm and friendly welcome (even our dog was welcome), lovely breakfast both good quality and freshly prepared with eggs laid that morning by their own chickens. Comfy room with balcony overlooking gorgeous view. Best of all was talking to Kay about all their environental initiatives, this ongoing project is their passion, with the long... More

Stayed at this hotel as stopover on a cycle trip. Found it is the Sustrains Cycle Guide. I did research & seemed good choice with price at £28 pp BB for twin rooms. For that price I did not set expectations too high, but location seemed ideal & was advised had a dryer room for clothes if weather wet. (This... More

On arrival we were met at the front door by Buster the terrier who make us feel at home. Upcott House is a family home of grand proportions with a lovely atmosphere and tasteful decoration in period style. The large, lovely, four poster bedroom did not include an ensuite bathroom but we knew that at the time of booking, so... More

Just a 10 minute sloping walk down into town, longer going back up. Owners friendly & welcoming. Breakfast lovely although we waited 20 minutes for the toast they had forgotten to bring. Rooms need updating - ours still had the 1970's Harvest Gold/Sunking bathroom suite with only a hand held shower, although the one next door had a white suite... More

Thank you for your positive comments. Major refurbishment work is undertaken in the winter; this bathroom and the hall carpet are next on the list for refurbishment in 2011 as you were aware. With a property this size (52 rooms) you can appreciate that refurbishment is a rolling programme. You had booked a twin room with a balcony and modern... More

We stayed for 1 night last September and have been meaning to go back ever since (too busy until now). It is a really beautiful house with charm and caracter. The landlady is very helpful and friendly without intruding on your privacy. We loved the balcony which overlooks the garden, we had our breakfast served here which was lovely. We... More

I have just returned from my fourth stay at Upcott House, and the welcome was as warm as ever. There is something very special about this gracious Edwardian house and its lovely grounds, and returning to it is always like returning "home". This visit I even had the luxury of having one of the original Victorian WCs for my exclusive... More

I stayed at Upcott house for two nights whilst working at one of the local supermarkets. This was a perfect location for me, but the main reason for booking this B+B as opposed to any other was the low price as I was on a tight budget. At £28 for a single room per night, this was the cheapest in... More

The bedroom was luxurious and spacious. My husband and I slept in a comfortable, queen sized four poster bed, whilst our children had their own single beds for the night in the same room. We had a balcony with a beautiful view of Dartmoor. The children could play in the garden in front of the house whilst we watched them... More
