About The Queens Head By JD Wetherspoon
Tavistock, on the western fringe of Dartmoor National Park, makes a practical base for walkers and visitors keen to explore the moor, and The Queens Head By JD Wetherspoon puts guests right in the middle of it on West Street. The building combines a familiar Wetherspoon pub downstairs with straightforward hotel accommodation above, giving guests the convenience of food, drink and a bed all under one roof.
Rooms are en-suite, with family and accessible options available, and a lift serves the upper floors. Breakfast is served on site, the bar and restaurant operate with outdoor seating, and free WiFi and drinks in the room are included. Reception is staffed around the clock, though it's worth noting there's no parking available at the property, so onward travel needs to be planned accordingly.
Beyond the pub itself, Tavistock offers golf, fishing and further pubs, bars and restaurants nearby, along with local entertainment options. For those heading out onto Dartmoor for the day, this is a no-frills spot to return to for a meal and a straightforward night's sleep.
