About The Sportsmans Inn

The Sportsmans Inn is a traditional pub-hotel on Exeter Road in Ivybridge, the kind of solid, no-frills building where the bar and restaurant sit at the heart of the place rather than off to one side. Rooms are en-suite, with family and accessible options available, and there's free WiFi and drinks available in-room for those who want to settle in for the evening.

Food is taken care of with a restaurant on site serving breakfast, kids' meals and packed lunches for anyone heading out for the day, plus outdoor seating for warmer weather and a 24 hour reception for late arrivals. Free on-site parking makes it an easy base for driving in and out of the surrounding area.

Ivybridge itself sits on the edge of Dartmoor National Park, and the inn is within reach of golf, fishing, and further pubs, bars and restaurants nearby for evenings out. It's a practical, comfortable stopover rather than a destination in itself, well suited to those planning to spend their days exploring the moor.
