Fodor's Expert Review Castle Inn

School Rd., Lydford, Devon, EX20 4BH, England

In the heart of Lydford village, this 16th-century inn sits next to Lydford Castle. Rose trellises frame its pink facade, and the public rooms are snug, lamp-lighted, and full of period clutter. Guest rooms vary in size, and include singles and larger rooms with four-poster beds; one has its own rooftop balcony, and four are in the cottage across the road. A range of bar snacks and full meals is available.

PROS

  • antique character
  • superior rooms are bright and spacious
