Close to the picturesque and sought-after market town of Chagford is the majestic Bovey Castle, tucked away on the gorgeous Dartmoor National Park. Both on-site scrumptious restaurants are AA Rosette awarded and there is an enticing Elan Spa with bespoke treatments so you can really treat yourself or someone special during your getaway to Devon.
Boasting 275 acres of stunning countryside, you can enjoy this beautiful scenery whilst you take a dip in the hotel’s deliciously-warm swimming pool in the Orangery. Treat yourself to one of the many tempting spa packages from facials to wellness therapies and body massages to make up and beauty treatments. A day guest can have access to the swimming pool, sauna, steam room, gym, tennis courts and estate walk so even if you don’t indulge yourself to a massage or treatment you can still have a day of relaxation and explore this beautiful property’s estate walk.
You are spoilt for choice with two delicious on-site restaurants – experience fine dining at the 3AA Rosette awarded ‘Great Western’ or for something for relaxed and modern sample the delicious menu at the 1AA Rosette awarded ‘Smith’s Brassier’.

There is a selection of plenty of sweet treats and freshly prepared sandwiches as tradition, but also a nice twist of delicious sausage rolls in crisps push pastry. Of course, what is a cream tea without a warm plain or fruit scone with Devon clotted cream and strawberry preserved – make it an extra special one with a glass of champagne or let the little one’s feel all grown-up with their very own tray from the children’s afternoon tea menu.
