Janet and Martin were the absolute best hosts! From the moment I arrived to the moment I left, they were so attentive, helpful, and a true pleasure to be around. This was really one of the greatest vacation stays of my entire life, and that's due to the dedication of Janet and Martin as well as the cozy, warm atmosphere they've created at their inn. Janet made the most delicious breakfasts and always made sure the guests had what they needed. When I arrived it was late and I wasn't able to find a local restaurant available so Janet was kind enough to offer me a warm slice of cake and a lovely bottle of pino. They have a lovely lounge area with cozy chairs, books, and lovely views of the grounds. I look forward to returning one day!

Fantastic
Had an amazing stay. It is so peaceful there! The property is really well maintained and hosts were really nice. The breakfast was really good and Martin gave good suggestions about visiting the area around as he had very good local knowledge. They went above and beyond to make the stay comfortable.

We enjoyed a very comfortable 2 night stay at Eastwrey Barton, Janet and Martin made us feel most welcome, served delicious breakfasts and advised us on the local area. This is the ideal place to break your journey on the way to Cornwall.

Down in Devon working
From start to finish it was a welcoming, charming and peaceful place to stay. The hosts are accommodating, the breakfast of high quality, the rooms homely and the views are stunning. They even contacted me the week before and asked if they would like to book me a table at a local pub, The Cleave. Definitely hoping to stay here again next time I am working in Devon.

Incredible!! Best bed and breakfast!!
We consider ourselves fortunate to have stumbled upon this gorgeous bed and breakfast. Everything was up to an impeccable standard.The owners truly have a penchant for great hospitality and made us feel completely at ease. The breakfast was incredible, the room was very clean and the premises were spectacular. Janet was kind enough to book us a reservation for dinner at a local pub. She also kindly left a whole box of toys for my daughter along with a whole array of stuffed toys. They took every bit of precaution in regards to our current climate. The hotel was filled with hand sanitizers, socially distancing measures were adhered to and the owners wore protective gear. Everything was truly perfect. We look forward to returning. Thank you Janet and Martin for a perfect stay

Eastwrey Barton - what can I say? You will not meet better hosts than Janet and Martin who will do anything and everything to make your stay as pleasant as possible - including phoning a local pub to make dinner reservations for you. The views are wonderful, breakfast was great (would thoroughly recommend the full English and Eastwrey blend tea). The guest house is slightly remote and you do need to eat out for dinner but if you have done your homework you know that already! Great value and looking forward to going back.

Faultless visit!
Excellent stay at this beautiful country house with amazing views of Dartmoor and the Devon countryside. The owners couldn’t have been more accommodating and friendly. Comfy bed, great shower and a wide range of breakfast options made the stay everything I needed for a weekend away for a local wedding. Would definitely recommend!

booked 2 rooms for my Surveys. They loved Eastwrey, said it was the best B&B/Guesthouse they have ever stayed in. Wonderfully confortable beds, and a fresh tasty breakfast of Scrambled eggs, smoked salmon and pots of tea. Wonderful Hostess, pot of tea upon arrival. Can't wait to stay again.

Relaxing family break
We stayed for a couple of nights to enjoy the moor and have some family time in the countryside. The property is done to a high standard and the owners were helpful and friendly. The room was spacious and the beds were comfy, very clean and quiet. Breakfast was delicious, the children loved it, beautiful views from the dining room. There is plenty of family activities in the area, did some trekking and visited nearby castle. Would definitely recommend!

Nice B&B in a lovely spot bordering Dartmoor National Park and we were lucky enough to have room 1 which had glorious views out. As the hosts were fairly new they were still making their mark on the B&B which needed a few homely personal touches and felt it was a tad pricey given the time of the year in November.

Lovely B&B perched over a Dartmoor valley
While the weather was rainy and misty, it added to the Dartmoor atmosphere. The owners were welcoming and had arranged for a table for dinner at a local 15th C pub. We would have liked to stay longer but had other commitments. The location is remote but beautiful and the local village is stunning (although the roads are very narrow - I’m glad I wasn’t driving at night.) The B&B is easy to find because it is on the main road. The room was large, nicely decorated with a comfortable bed and good linens. The view was lovely. The breakfast was good and made to order. Unfortunately, a recent electrical problem had caused the wi-if to be very spotty (but what are we using the internet for when we are in the midst of such natural beauty!)

Very clean and nice BNB great decor n breakfast
Every thing is superb. I think host needs a lesson in anger management. We were late in arriving because we got lost. He was furious when we arrived. We asked "if we were in the right place" as we could not see the sign. His stern answer was " you are completely in the wrong place". In the morning he just walked by without saying good morning. We liked everything else except hat part of his behavior. We paid good sum of money. It was not free.

Perfect peace & tranquility
The hotel location was easy to find and from the moment I arrived I relaxed. Patrick was warm and inviting, with no rush. The trip was for business and i look for a location to relax after work. The room was very clean, comfortable and was able to sleep in complete silence. The surrounding area is beautiful and enables complete rest and relaxation. Will be coming back with my wife for long weekend to enjoy the area for holiday.

Eastwrey Barton Guest House
Overall my wife and I were very satisfied with this guest house. It's a grand building in a pretty location, easy to find and surrounded by lovely Dartmoor countryside. The host and his wife were welcoming, friendly and helpful with local information, maps, walks, etc. Three little niggles: 1) We chose this particular place because it offered dinner as well as B&B. However, when we arrived and enquired about an evening meal we were told it needed to be booked well in advance. This is not made clear in the listing, as far as I can see. 2) The heating in our room wasn't switched on until we moved into it so we had quite a chilly initial half hour. After that, it was fine. 3) Our ensuite bathroom only had a hand shower in the bath on a pedestal and the water temperature fluctuated between hot and cold frequently. As a tall bloke I found having a shower awkward and uncomfortable - and messy!
