Bovey Castle
Dartmoor castle estate where dogs stay in every room and lodge
This hotel is part of the Daisy Curated Collection. Its information has been researched and verified, but Daisy has not yet personally stayed here. When she does, this page will be upgraded to a full Daisy Verified inspection.
What we've verified
The estate runs straight out onto Dartmoor, and the hotel's own walk booklet starts at the front door. North Bovey village is the nearest short stroll.
Dogs can eat with you in Smith's Brasserie, and they're welcome in the Library and on the South Terrace.
How the welcome translates in person, at dinner and around the hotel. That's what a Daisy stay will confirm.

What we've confirmed, at a glance.
Verified with the hotel, honestly marked.
Dogs are allowed in all bedrooms and lodges, in Smith's Brasserie when you're staying, in the Library, in the seating area under the main staircase and on the South Terrace.
Where we can't yet confirm a detail first-hand, we mark it plainly rather than guess. A Daisy stay will close every gap.
Everything, without the wall of text.
