Blue Lion Inn - Lewdown

Superb local vibe, friendly landlord, and amazing homemade food! The dartboard added a fun touch, and the soothing ambiance made it a nice evening. Loved my bright room with en-suite too!

The hotel was in a PEACEFUL location, in a lovely area with friendly staff. The staff were amicable, doing great job.

Great amenities, absolutely perfect and marvellous setting.

Superb base for discovering Lewdown. Excellent breakfast, fantastic food. Comfy units with comfortable bed, very powerful shower plus a hairdryer, and affable stuff. Location not far from the pub and nature of staying above a pub. Also, delighted to stay again when in the area.

The room I had was cozy with lovely decor, bright enough to feel inviting. The bathroom was clean and well-maintained, which I appreciated. Dartmoor views added to the charm. Easy access to scenic walks. The lighting on the stairs was poor was nice, especially at night. Breakfast arrangements were unclear. I couldn't find out when it started, and it seemed like it might be an inconvenience. I had a great meal at a nearby pub instead, a lucky find. The atmosphere in the pub area felt lively with local patrons, but it could have benefited from more staff presence during busy times. Despite the hiccups, it had a nice community vibe.

The atmosphere was warm and inviting. The staff were great too ensure our meals were enjoyable, even joining us for some friendly conversation. The room had a lovely view of the surrounding countryside and was bright enough to start the day right.

breakfast options could be more varied,

Laundry scents may be overwhelming, but the cozy rustic vibe and Dartmoor views steal the show.

clean bathrooms, charming decor, laundry scent.

Charming decor and inviting ambiance by the fireplace.

Sadly, I was very disappointed to find the pub closed when I arrived around 3:30 on a Sunday. There was no clear information regarding opening times or dining options, which left me without a meal or drink after my long journey. The lack of staff presence, especially since I was hoping to enjoy the local atmosphere and possibly order something to eat.

charming, charming, charming

I had a charming time with fine Dartmoor views that created an idyllic backdrop for our stay. The homemade food was a good surprise, especially the burgers, a must-try! The lively pub atmosphere filled with friendly locals made for a nice evening.

would recommend 🥰🍻

The twin room was cozy, but the stairs were too dark at night.

Cozy room with lovely decor. Clean bathroom adds a nice touch.

The lighting on the stairs could use improvement. It was quite dark. The pub was closed when I arrived, and I had no idea about breakfast times or menus, made dining plans tricky.

I enjoyed a lovely stay with friendly vibes and delicious meals, especially the well-priced dinner. The only downside was the slightly basic breakfast options. I'd choose this place again!

Charming atmosphere with great views

The room was bright, comfortable, and had a nice view. I found it disappointing that the pub was closed when we arrived, leaving us without quick dining options.

The room was nicely furnished with a large space and a powerful shower, and the location was convenient, close to nature and a pub in Lydford Gorge.
