Four of the six rooms are dog-friendly, providing a dedicated welcome basket with a dog blanket, bowls, and treats. Room categories include Standard King, Superior Quadruple, and the garden-view Hayloft, all set within the preserved 13th-century Devon longhouse.

Dining and Drinks

The restaurant serves West Country-inspired dishes made with locally sourced produce, including options for vegetarians and those with dietary restrictions. The historic Bar offers a selection of locally brewed real ales, fine wines, and specialty drinks like dry-aged sirloin steak and wild mushroom ravioli. A breakfast hamper delivered to the door includes homemade treats, Devon yogurts, fresh fruits, and hot bacon baps for an additional fee.

Situated on the edge of Dartmoor National Park, the inn provides direct access to walks on Sourton Tor, Corn Ridge, and Great Links Tor. The Granite Way cycle path runs directly behind the pub, and on-site activities include hiking, cycling, fishing, and horse riding. The spacious pub garden features a babbling brook and views of Dartmoor across open farmland.

Pet-Friendly Features

Four of the six rooms are specifically designated as dog-friendly, with a welcome basket containing a dog blanket, feeding bowls, and treats placed in the room. Dogs are also allowed in a dedicated section of the restaurant, where staff provide additional treats at the table. The inn's garden and immediate surroundings offer easy access to dog walks on the moor.

Breakfast and Extra Touches

The signature breakfast experience is a hamper delivered to the room each morning, containing homemade treats, Devon yoghurts, fresh fruits, local juices, and a choice of breakfast pastries or hot bacon bap.

“Bearslake Inn carries its 1100s history with a surprising grace, offering a genuine step back in time that feels remarkably comfortable. My impression is of a place where the ancient stone walls hold a warmth, mirrored by the attentiveness of staff like Julian, who clearly takes pride in the thriving atmosphere. The garden, with its brook and Dartmoor views, feels like a quiet invitation to simply switch off.”
