We had an amazing time the accommodation was perfect for our needs and we have already booked a return trip. The hot tub was lovely after a long walk on the moors, and Princetown has plenty of places for refreshments. The prison museum and visitors centre are well worth a visit. Perfect hosts.

Absolutely brilliant place to stay after a long walk.Great location and the room was perfect with its own mini kitchen and table and chairs not to mention how clean and well equipped it was.Loads of facilities at the property that we didn't even have time to use all of. The owners were lovely and really helpful with places to eat and times etc.We will definitely be returning as this place is an absolute gem.

A fantastic overnight stay at the Ramblers. Lovely and helpful hosts, an amazing hot tub and the room was beautiful. I really appreciated their eco-credentials in terms of energy efficiency and even their washing up liquid. I would totally recommend this as a place to stay.

We had a great night in the teeny caravan. We were made to feel so welcomed on arrival and throughout our stay. The facilities were amazing. Even if we did decide to travel to grab a Chinese just a short drive away. We brought it back to eat Infront of the log burner before a dip in the huge jacuzzi. We will definitely be back

First of all I admit I have never stayed here but have stayed for one night in Princetown at a proper B&B who really did cater for walkers and they provided a proper breakfast. I saw the Railway on Channel 4's programme and going by what was shown, as a tired walker having just trudged across Dartmoor there is no way I would want to somehow acquire my breakfast ingredients on the way in preparation for the following day. To call it a Ramblers rest is rather misleading. However as a base for several days walking it would be most suitable.

Great break at the Ramblers Rest. Trevor and Nikki were incredibly accommodating and welcoming and the accommodation was clean, well equipped and spacious. We used the outdoor kitchen which was fun, and location is perfect for surrounding the moors on your doorstep. Highly recommend.

Me and my partner had a lovely time on Dartmoor and the stay at the Ramblers was fantastic. Niki the owner was very very friendly and also made sure we were ok. I would highly recommend the accommodation. Very clean , good size room and places to eat also in the area. Niki was always available if required. Would 100% return. 👍🏾
