We had excellent customer service from reception upon arrival after a muddle up with our booking by Expedia. They sorted everything out for us on our behalf. In the restaurant, Ollie was very helpful, even though it was only his 5th day! He had a very pleasant manner and gave no indication that it was only his first week.

Fantastic mini break

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Mole, so much so, we're going back next month. All the staff were friendly, welcoming & helpful, our room was well equipped, with a comfortable bed. A great range of activities are available, & the bar & restaurant served a great range too.

Loved our first stay at The Mole Resort!

Loved our first stay at The Mole Resort. Staff were lovely throughout and the food was delicious! We'll definitely be back! Constructive criticism is that the Pavilion needs updating and there could be a lot more signs directing you to places.

A lovely find in mid devon

We had a lovely brief stay at the Mole. What a lovely setting. View from breakfast was gorgeous. We enjoyed the pool and general setting but didn't have time to do much else. Would love to come for longer next time. Staff were lovely. Food was delicious.

We and our dog had a nice visit to Highbullen. Annoyingly the room we had booked with a dog friendly filter was not in fact dog friendly and so we ended up in a different room type some walk from the main building. The room and food were good but there were relatively minor things that could be done to make the hotel much better - slightly less pumping music over breakfast, nicer changing rooms at the gym and spa, decent lighting for the walk at night between main house and our room, and some TLC of the snooker table.

Yess very good …..but!

Strange checkin process, reception is at the Hub not in the Hotel, I may have missed communication on this but a lot of walking about just to check in Car chargers need bettering, current type have no instructions and no staff (5 of them) knew how they worked or more importantly released the cable!

The property and grounds are amazing, largely unchanged over 20 years and it is still a nice place for a short break, pretty relaxing in a beautiful setting. Decent value in terms of price overall but - a big BUT too - if you expect great overall quality and luxury, it has changed a lot in terms of cleanliness standards and service compared to previous years. Friendly service but lacking in terms of quality, speed and consistency across various service areas like Hub, Breakfast, Bar and Restaurant. The pool area and rooms are tired and need refreshing. Restaurant food was nice, breakfast less so, and chaotic. The range of easy access activities for adults and kids is decent but again, seems to lack a bit of quality. Would return, but with different expectations, and would recommend too, but reservedly so.
