The hotel is situated in a stunning historical location, with the Abbey boasting over a thousand years of history. Despite its ancient surroundings, the hotel offers modern services and comforts of the 21st century. There is ample car parking available, including electric charging stations. The reception staff provided a warm and inviting greeting, and the online check-in process made our arrival seamless. Our room, number 117, had a balcony with a spectacular view of the Abbey. The bed was extremely comfortable, and the shower was perfect for soothing aching muscles. Breakfast was plentiful and served buffet-style, allowing guests to help themselves. Dinner catered to all tastes, and the young man serving ensured everything was perfect. A particularly memorable experience was visiting the Abbey at 6 pm on a dark November night. We had the unique opportunity to listen to the organist practicing for an upcoming concert, with only the two of us in the audience. It was a deeply moving experience, evoking the Abbey's thousand years of Evening Song.

Spacious rooms with comfort & quiet with friendly staff & always with a fresh clean impression, generous choices at lovely breakfasts & these comments are applicable to multiple visits we have made in the last 24 months so consistency is also being maintained so we cannot fault the place as a base for the Dartmoor area and whole heartedly love & will revisit soon

This is not a dislike more a proportional comment. Evening meals are priced in a ratio to their undoubted quality & when we last tried were delicious but if you are being thrifty & frugal & trying to stay within a budget & grab a bargain stay you especially will adore the breakfast included priced rooms. & If you are happy to pay for top quality evening meals then you too will have no regrets

The hotel & the room was spotless. We had a superior room with a veranda/balcony that lead to the rooftop terrace above the dining room which was a little different but a very nice surprise with a beautiful view of Buckfast Abbey. The room was very spacious with nice furniture that was more than adequate. The extra large bed was very comfortable too. But the nicest thing for us was the peace & quite. It was one of the quiest hotels/rooms that we have ever stayed in. The restaurant was very nice with an excellent breakfast. Good variety on the evening menu too. The shower was wonderful, loads of good pressure hot water & a very large walk-in, low profile shower tray & large heated towel rail. The bathroom was spotless. The staff all round were wonderful.

Just a couple of minor niggles were that the room was very dark, even with all the lights switched on & there was no control of the heating. Neither of which would be relevant in the summer but at the moment in November it would have been nice to have the room a little warmer & brighter. It would not prevent us staying here again though, or recommending Northgate House to anyone else.

The one thing you learn from travelling is that no matter how good the accommodation looks on line you can never be sure until you are there. I had fairly high expectations but Northgate House exceeded these expectations in every area. On arrival and throughout our stay every member of staff was friendly, professional and helpful. The room was spacious, fitted out to a high standard and the beds were lovely and comfortable. The shower room too was everything you could wish for with powerful hot water, spotlessly clean fittings and soft towels. The breakfast buffet was excellent in variety, presentation and flavour. The evening meal menu offered a good range of options and the chef produced delicious and attractive dishes.

All was good.

Our room was beautiful, balcony with view of the Abbey, very comfortable bed. Bath and shower. Lovely drinks box with biscuits in room. My father had an accessible room with a wonderful bathroom. the best accessible room we have ever stayed in. Breakfast was amazing, everything freshly cooked and regularly topped up and beautifully cooked. Loved the breakfast room. Someone always on hand at reception or at bar to answer any queries. Staff extremely helpful over the phone on booking and at all times during the stay and we're very kind to my father. Grounds beautiful and you can walk over to the Abbey. Simply a stunning and quiet location and we can't wait to go back! Lots of great places to visit nearby: steam railway, otter sanctuary and butterfly world all 10 mins away and some great pubs too. Dartmouth only 30 mins away.

Nothing

we had room 115 massive bathroom bath and shower huge balcony spotless room with all you could need no noise super quiet room plenty space to hang cloths and plenty drawer space cant fault room at all. Extra thanks to Beckie who went the extra mile to help us with a lost item when we had arrived home.

so bit reluctant to mention this as every thing was so perfect for our stay but my wife had scrambled eggs for breakfast and even the lady who brought the scrambled eggs to the table apologised, they were so pale no egg colour at all such a shame as everything else was good. Reception said they were going to investigate there supplier as not there usual standard.

A lovely peaceful stay. The Hotel is very clean and welcoming and the Staff throughout our stay must be commended for their friendly and helpful service. The room was of a lovely size with a very comfy bed and crisp, clean, fresh bed linen. Lovely large walk-in rainfall shower in our room in a very bright and clean bathroom. We only stayed one night, but ate both an evening meal and Breakfast. The menu in the evening was perhaps slightly limited, but the food was very well prepared and presented and we had no problem finding something we both liked. Breakfast was extremely good, the usual choice of continental style and full English. There was plenty of choice and all fresh. Overall we had a lovely stay and will be back! The cleanliness and the friendly Staff are the stand-out points of this Hotel. Thank you for a lovely stay.

The Evening Menu was slightly limited. Having said that, what was ordered was presented very nicely, cooked well and was very tasty.

Peaceful rural location. The two rooms that we had were clean, comfortable and great value. Although the breakfast room was busy, there was a good choice and the catering staff were regularly checking the options that were being made available. We were en-route to Plymouth to take a ferry. As an overnight stay in advance of our crossing it was perfect. There were local walks which gave us a chance to stretch our legs after breakfast. Loads of parking available.

Nothing negative. We were only there for a single night, but our experience was very positive, so another visit could be an option which would allow us to do some walking in the Dartmoor area.

Our room was lovely, very clean and spacious. The bar was cozy and breakfast was good.

We had 4 rooms booked for a Saturday night. The reception staff weren’t as helpful or flexible as they could have been when we requested a room to get changed in as we were arriving at 2pm to go to a fancy dress party locally at 3pm. It’s a very corporate feeling hotel, obviously used for conferences during the week so the food and beverage hours are very limited. Our friends arrived earlier than us and asked if they could get a snack lunch and were told there was nothing available.

I stayed 6 nights in the northgate house hotel which I really enjoyed in every way. I could not find fault with anything as the food was delicious well prepared and presented. The room was so clean and had really good facilities including a very comfortable bed .the staff were exceptional really friendly and helpful which really made such a difference to my stay .I would highly reccomend a stay at this exceptional hotel .

I couldn't find any fault with anything at all during my stay here .
