The hotel is just off the A382 and there is free parking. The nearest station is Newton Abbot, which takes 35 minutes by car or taxi. Exeter International Airport is 30 minutes' drive.
Mill End Hotel is a "secluded country house hideaway" (The AA Hotel Guide 2017) on the banks of the River Teign in rugged Dartmoor National Park. It's a rural retreat and "a great place to escape the city", according to Alastair Sawday's Special Places to Stay.
The hotel is housed in a 15th-century former mill building, which boasts a restored 18-foot waterwheel that's powered by an aqueduct on Dartmoor.
The 2-AA-Rosette restaurant uses fish from the Cornish coast and locally reared Devonshire meat. All bottled water is produced in house, using a 7-stage filtration and purification system. Breakfast includes a continental buffet and hot dishes cooked to order.
The small bar is a nice spot for pre-dinner drinks, or you can sample a traditional Devonshire cream tea in the gardens or in one of the lounges.
Standard King Rooms are on the ground, first and second floors, and some have views of the gardens.
Keen anglers can fish (supplements apply) the hotel's private stretch of the River Teign. Well-behaved dogs are allowed in some rooms for an extra £8 per dog, per night (check with the hotel in advance).

The room. We specifically asked for a dog friendly room. We ended up in the eaves. Several flights up. Not convenient. Noisy plumbing. Too hot. Bathroom needs a refit. Got woken up at 6am by crashing bottles being tipped into a recycling lorry. Room was swarming in flies. They were coming from outside under the eaves.

This was excellent value for money. We were lucky to have booked when the hotel was offering a taster menu. This was probably one of the finest meals we have eaten in a hotel of this price, far exceeding similar dining experience at a Michelin starred restaurant not far away. The staff throughout the hotel were superb. The room was good size but showing some signs that it was the end of the season however it was clean and well presented and we were more than happy.

There were a lot of doggy visitors and nearly all were perfectly behaved. However, I was woken up by yapping not long after 7am on the Saturday, which was really irritating. This would make me think twice about staying again.
