ザ オラトリー

The Oratory place ( in Yelverton) was just perfect for us (3 adults, a child and a dog) it felt like a true home away from home in a new area in England that we decided to explore. The Oratory was so clean, comfortable and perfectly situated as it is an incredible base for exploring Dartmoor National Park. There are 2 local pubs close by and we decided to try the Plume of Feathers (a 10min walk) which had some very friendly pub workers (+ pub manager) and we had some delicious food and local drinks. There are more places to eat in different areas (like 30mins drive or so) around Dartmoor National Park like local cafes and restaurants. We heartily recommend the Oratory to anyone looking for the perfect Dartmoor getaway.

Comfortable, cosy, and beautifully decorated room with private bathroom, and its own access Kitchenette (hot plate, microwave, kettle, toaster, fridge, freezer, crockery and cutlery, cafetiere) had all we needed to be self-catered while there Dog friendly Very responsive and helpful host On the edge of Princetown with access to good walks on the moors

A lovely apartment in a great location and great communication from the hosts.

Second time we've stayed here as a family. Can't fault it. Lovely people, lovely room and fantastic location.

This is a lovely, peaceful location and a beautiful apartment. Many personal touches to make the stay very comfortable.

The Oratory is a quaint beautifully presented property ideal for easy access to the moors and all the excellent local walks. Princetown has two excellent pubs within easy walking distance of The Oratory serving good food. Highly recommend a stay here. I will be back

We had an absolutely brilliant stay in the Chapel. It is much bigger than it looks with gorgeous high ceilings so it feels very spacious. With a two year old and a large dog, it never felt cramped or like we were on top of each other. And the bathroom is HUGE! We felt incredibly welcomed and will be back without a doubt. Thankyou so much x

Loved the room. Really nicely decorated and great bathroom. Owner provided fresh bread, butter and jam (and a bottle of wine!) Very nice and friendly owners provided suggestions for dinner. Would have loved to stay longer.

great place to stay for a couple , lovely interior, very comfortable!

Lovely place, easy to access a number of walking paths. Jeanette helped us with the laundry and was really helpful. Recommended

Perfect place for a short break, located on the Moors but close to local shops and towns. Will likely stay again.

This was a great place to stay and accommodating - they moved dishes and a hotplate in so I could do a little cooking and allowed me to drop off my luggage early. Very comfortable with a good selection of books about the area - including 2 different OS maps, which were very helpful. Within easy walking distance of all Princetown attractions and Dartmoor walks.

Lovely drive over Dartmoor but be aware that this isn’t in Yelverton as the ad says. It’s in Princetown. Not so accessible with buses at night so we had to drive. Property was quirky and host greeted us with the WiFi code and left classical music on for our arrival. Enjoyed our stay. Two negatives were the bathroom taps didn’t work properly. We were advised before we arrived but I have noticed that someone said the same last year and it hasn’t been addressed. The toilet doesn’t flush properly either and you have to jiggle the handle to get the flush to stop. I did report this back but didn’t receive a reply. The kitchenette is a kettle and a fridge and a cupboard top oven in the living area. All this would be adequate but there are no washing up facilities. We were advised that because of restrictions on the property a sink can’t be installed in the main room. I think a washing up bowl maybe could be given and an indication of where to empty the water. Lovely for a short stay with meals out. Wouldnt recommend for a family or a weeks stay though.

All the mod cons and self contained!

Generally very good. Bathroom taps didn’t work properly, but the owner did inform us. No shower gel/shampoo. No dog treats or bowls available. Bed very comfortable. Underfloor heating in bathroom brilliant.

Fantastic place to stay peaceful and everything you need..

Lovely quiet peaeful property, great that we could bring the dog too. Great access to the Moors. For some reason though I thought it was actually in Yelverton whihc was what we were wanting becasue my husband struggles with his breathing and hills, The Oratory was at the top of the village on a hill, we got round it by walking slowly :) The host was lovely and left us alone, my only other comment, it would be good to have a washing up bowl somewhere for those that wish to leave everything clean.

Location is excellent if your interested in walking on the Moors. Parking is on the street ,but found a space no problem. Chapel room was clean and roomy. Lovely quality of bedding. Had a small problem with the hot water ,on two nights.and we felt cereal should of been offered with the continental breakfast. The owner, Jeanette,was friendly but didn't interfere with our privacy which we appreciated.

Just a fabulous place to stay, will definitely be going their again.

Great, friendly host. Nice room, decorated well with high ceilings. Great location.
