Did you and your dog receive a warm welcome? yes

Would you like to add any more feedback about your stay? Pay for a Superior room, as the extra space is worth it?

“From the moment we walked in, the reception team of Tyler, Tom and Maddie made sure that every request was granted - this hotel is actually dog-friendly, not dog tolerant as so many are. The dining room is a little old fashioned, but the bar/restaurant was excellent, with great food and service from the delightful Flo, although the Chef clearly likes to work table-by-table, as there was often a delay in ordering, but the food id worth the wait? Room was really nice, if a little like the dining room, but with three dogs, we were definitely happy with it, as easy access to the outside via the fire escape. Not much to do locally except walk, but really enjoyed the day at the beach, as did the dogs. A very pleasant stay, where we and the dogs were spoilt rotten!!”

“Booked an overnight package at this splendid location and it did not disappoint, warm welcome was followed by a lovely walk around the grounds and down to the rivers edge, delicious evening meal, great night's sleep and a bumper buffet breakfast, enjoyed by wifey, woofer and I.”

“With it been Milo’s first time away and only 10mths we were very nervous on how he was going to react. He was a good dog sometimes vocal but that was understandable. He loved running & swimming in the dog friendly garden. The staff were very friendly and helpful always making a fuss of the dogs when they met them.”

“We asked our dog W to pinpoint highlights of our 5 day stay at the Fox&Hounds: "Well, first, the welcome!", he said. "Thoughtful touches like a towel at the entrance to dry me off after a romp on the lawns. Being given 'the run' of the extensive grounds and the public areas meant a best dog-friendly stay. Ever! Not to forget the greets and treats from all the staff. Tyler, Maddy, Tom, Keira, Zak, Helen and the backroom staff among them. "After a long day out what more could a dog want than joining sociable friends in the dining area while the humans take their pick of an expansive menu? ( There was bound to be one loudmouth, but that was the only blip for me). And then retiring for a peaceful sleep in our spacious room. My humans had brought my travel bed and favourite snacks and, if nature called, I could be taken outside at any time, day or night! "So ... How was my stay? If I could give six barks I would! But, to take the lead (haha) from others who loved this place, it's 5***** every time!" P.S. from the humans: "We'll be back. So much to see, do and enjoy in this wonderful part of Devon"”

Would you like to add any more feedback about your stay? Excellent value for money and the food both dinner and breakfast was 5*

“Really comfortable and canine focused hotel. Spotlessly clean and the dogs are welcome throughout the hotel, a really refreshing change that helps you relax being able to have them with you”

Would you like to add any more feedback about your stay? Initially great response to us and dogs but it wasn't consistent.

“Unfortunately this wasn't the enjoyable holiday that we were looking forward to. We selected a patio room but didn't realise that it would be next to main patio and only separated by trellis. So it was not as private or quiet as we hoped. When I booked a table for dinner, I asked for one at the side or corner but was given one in the middle of the room. As people/staff walk pass table the dogs barked, so was told we may need to leave. Then told we couldn't take our food to the room and room service hadn't been available since covid although it had been listed in the offer. Even though we were first in restaurant, there was a long wait for food and the soup wasn't hot and steak undercooked. Following day while on patio overheard telephone conversation to owner, where they were discussing unreasonable customers then started to talk about us. Receptionist, who was very professional and friendly throughout our stay, apologised then went to tell manager that she could be heard. Overall experience and stay was uncomfortable which is a shame as the rooms were clean, hotel grounds were lovely and I had been looking for a venue for family get together. Unfortunately the attitude towards dogs varies from they should ALWAYS be silent to we know they will bark.”
