About Best Western The Dartmouth Hotel Golf & Spa

Best Western The Dartmouth Hotel Golf & Spa suits golfers looking for a course on the doorstep, couples after a spa break, and families wanting a pool and games room to fall back on when the weather turns. Set inland from Dartmouth near Blackawton, it has 42 rooms across three floors, with family and accessible options, en-suite bathrooms, free WiFi and room service throughout.

The spa is a genuine draw, with an indoor pool, sauna and hot tub alongside a gym, and the golf course is well looked after for guests who want to play a round without travelling further. Food comes via an on-site restaurant and bar, with packed lunches available for days out, and the kitchen has a good reputation, particularly for Christmas dinners. Staff are consistently described as friendly and helpful, and the hotel is generally considered good value, though some parts of the building show their age and could do with updating.

Beyond the grounds there's fishing, walking and watersports nearby, plus pubs and restaurants within reach, and Blackpool Sands and Woodlands Theme Park are both close by for family days out. There's free on-site parking, an EV charging point, and the hotel also takes weddings, with a bridal suite and meeting rooms for events. Pets are welcome too.

Staff all really welcoming, friendly and helpful. Family room size was great and really clean. Child's bed not very substantial. Only 1 small fan for the whole room and no air con so very hot at night. Pool/spa was small but not busy and a nice addition to the stay.

We were welcomed by Dee who's very friendly. Our room was prepared by Chloe. All housekeeping staff we met were attentive and friendly. Great service at the restaurant. The staff at the restaurant (Andy, Joel, our server at dinner (thin, dark-haired guy -sorry we didn't catch your name) were all very helpful and friendly. We enjoyed our stay.

Very nice position and staff. Arrived to an excellent room prepared by Sharon! In difficult times the hotel seems slightly dated and could possibly do with a bit of paint and some new carpets In the near future but it is still very clean, tidy and comfortable. Would recommend and come back again!

We had a 2 night stay hotel situated amongst a golf course feels very out in the country, close enough to visit Brixham Torquay etc, food was nice in the restaurant. Was a golf tournament while we were there so quite blokey in the bar but everything was fine no issues. We went in the pool with the baby, spa facilities looked nice and spa lady was lovely and helpful. Also Andy at breakfast and dinner was really friendly and made effort to have fun and make the baby laugh and he made the stay special so say thank you to him please. Room was big and clean and shower was very good.
