Historic Coaching Inn at the Gates of Dartmoor National Park - Pet-Friendly & Culinary-Focused
Heritage & Location
The White Hart Hotel occupies a Grade II listed building that dates back to 1775, one of the oldest coaching inns on Dartmoor. The hotel sits in the centre of Moretonhampstead, with direct access to Dartmoor National Park, Castle Drogo, and Tavistock Market. Guests can step out onto scenic trails for walking, cycling, and fishing without needing a car.
Pet-Friendly Amenities
Dogs receive a dedicated bed, bowls, treats, and a tennis ball upon arrival, plus a special pet menu is available. The hotel provides pet baskets and pet bowls in the room, and dogs are welcome in the restaurant. A pet fee of £10 per dog covers these on-site amenities.
Dining & Culinary
The hotel's restaurant serves locally sourced ingredients with a diverse menu that includes a Sunday roast, steak and ale pie, and fish and chips. The bar offers an extensive range of local beers and ciders, as well as wine and champagne. Guests can request special diet menus, kids' meals, breakfast in the room, and packed lunches for day trips.
Rooms & Comfort
The hotel has 28 ensuite rooms, each uniquely styled with flat-screen TVs, Sky TV, and homemade shortbread on arrival. Rooms include tea and coffee making facilities with a choice of oat and dairy milk satchels. The building's historic character means sloping floors and changes in floor levels, with some rooms offering views over Dartmoor.
Activities & Entertainment
Guests can join live music performances, live sport events, and darts in the bar, or play board games from the hotel's collection. Outdoor activities include horse riding, hiking, cycling, and fishing, all accessible directly from the hotel. The hotel also has a sun terrace, picnic area, and garden for relaxation after a day on the moor.
