The quaint White Hart Hotel in Moretonhampstead (Cornwall) is THE hotel in town right in the center. I popped in to ask for a single room for one night and was offered one for 60 pounds on the first floor. The building is quite oldfashioned with very thick walls that date back to anno 1800. A fair sized room with... More

Thank you for taking the time to review the hotel. While we obviously got a lot of things right for you - our vegetarian dishes are extremely popular with vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike - we do accept the shortcomings of our wifi. As you review states: 'The building is quite oldfashioned with very thick walls' – and this is the... More

We stayed for one night with 2 teenage children and were very impressed with incredibly accommodating staff. I asked if 2 teenagers could fit on a sofa bed in our room. They said probably not, but promptly offered to put a z bed as well. Perfect. We asked if there was anywhere to put bikes and they unlocked the function... More

I haven't stayed at the Hotel but I have dined there and the food is really good, its well priced and is top quality. Local produce, vegetarian options, excellent service, friendly staff, and thus strongly recommended.

Thanks so much for your comments on our restaurant. We work hard to produce a menu that uses fresh local, seasonal produce and appeals to as many diners as possible. Our chef, Matthew King, has devised some especially delicious vegetarian dishes for our new summer menu (2013). We hope you will be back again soon to give them a try! More

Nice room, very helpful and friendly staff. Big parking place quite close to the hotel. The food was amazing. Charming traditional interior Moretonhampstead is a good starting point if you want to explore Dartmoor. Wonderful landscape.

Thank you very much for your review of the hotel. It is a very old building and, as you say, does have some rather challenging stairs!

Fortunately, the heavy rain that I'd passed through on my way to The White Hart had abated as I pulled into the public car park that guests of the hotel are obliged to use. Just as well as the 50 yard walk up the hill to the hotel would have been enough for me to have turned up at the... More
