The room was exceptional for the style and comfort. Was well worth the pricetag. The cooked breakfast was one of the best I have had in years if not ever! The bar area was very classy and the parking is immediately behind the hotel. If I had friends or guests coming to Tavistock, I will be definitely recommending this hotel! Will stay again for sure!

A pub with rooms does NOT cover the Cornish Arms - it is very friendly, good atmosphere and location, but the rooms are spotlessly clean, very comfortable and very good value for money. Great facilities, great food, great staff. We will certainly stay here again!

Outstanding place to stay. Food, service, beer all very good. This is a gastro pub and i believe it came second in the country recently which speaks highly of the staff and place I was very impressed with the food.

Nice place but food expensive

Very nice staff at the bar and housecleaning. Hotel very clean and well presented. Bed was very hard and the room was over the kitchen air vent so had smells of cooking if you opened the window. Food is very expensive and not competitive with surrounding establishments.

The parking is reserved for guests behind the pub and easy to access. The room we stayed in was very well decorated and clean, the bed was huge, and all the staff were super friendly. Also, the included breakfast was very well presented and great! I came down to visit some friends. Safe to say, I’ll be booking the Cornish arms for every visit.

Highly recommended

We stayed for one night in the Mallard junior suite with beautiful William Holland roll top copper bath. We found the room really comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. We booked dinner in the resturant and were both really impressed with the food in the evening and at breakfast too. We highly recommend staying and will be returning!
