One of the oldest hotels on Dartmoor

Since 1775, the White Hart has been a beacon of comfort for weary travellers en route from Exeter to Princetown. Now sympathetically refurbished, this Grade II-listed former posting inn stands as one of the most charming and authentic hotels on Dartmoor.

Visit today and you can expect the same friendly, attentive service that guests have enjoyed for 250 years. A warm bed. A hearty, home-cooked meal. That special attention to detail that only a family-run hotel can provide.

You'll find us in the market town of Moretonhampstead – recently voted the best small town in Devon. Walkers and weekend-breakers. Couples, groups and four-legged friends. Welcome all. This is your haven in the heart of Dartmoor National Park.

Stay

These aren't just rooms – they're memories in the making. Each of our 28 ensuite bedrooms reflects the historic character of our Grade II-listed hotel. Expect unique period features, tastefully updated with bespoke décor, cosy beds and luxury facilities.

Food and drink

In the 18th century, hungry travellers would call into the White Hart for a warm meal and a welcome pint of cider. Today, the tradition continues – but with modern flavours, intimate décor and a renewed focus on high-quality local produce. (Cider's still on the menu, of course.)
