“Yha Dartmoor shines with its brilliant location in the heart of Dartmoor; the friendly staff clearly make a difference, ensuring guests feel at home. The absence of internet encourages a welcome disconnection, replaced by board games and family time, truly appealing to those seeking refuge from the digital world; the comfortable beds are a plus after a day exploring the moor. I think it is a simple, genuine escape.”
