Originally built as a school house in 1875, this charming guest house has been lovingly converted to offer comfortable, well-equipped en suite accommodation with beautiful original features.
The guest house has been sensitively converted and the beautiful historic structure and wonderful original features have been carefully preserved, including the 130 year old exposed wooden beams.
Surrounded by the stunning natural beauty of Dartmoor National Park, the Old School Guest House is located in the small, picture-perfect village of Horrabridge, with its 2 pubs, its small shops and a local post office. The idyllic location makes the guest house a great base from which to explore all that Devon and Cornwall have to offer. Tavistock is just 10 minutes drive away and the city of Plymouth is only 15 minutes from the guest house. Derriford and Belliver are also nearby and the Eden Project is only 45 minutes away.
Enjoy a friendly homely atmosphere at this beautiful Victorian school building, lovingly converted to offer a very comfortable stay.
