Gara Rock

All was exemplary but the extra special something was the staff. Wow was a team! First visit but will be back.

Fantastic hotel, rooms are beautiful, view stunning. Very relaxing. Great food and drinks. The staff make the hotel even better, so friendly, they couldn’t do enough. A real credit to the hotel ! We will definitely come back!

Great sea views and lovely to walk to the local beach and Salcombe on the coastal path. Lovely room, dining experience and lounge areas

For the price, was a shame the steam room wasn’t working and room cleaning service was average, was woken up in the morning twice by a cleaner watching YouTube outside my door. Rather bizarre. Food was great and restaurant staff were superb.

Outstanding food, awesome location and great vibe! Highly recommend!!

Very difficult to get too & too expensive! For the price tag there’s no wow factor

Beautiful place, beautiful room and amazing food. I was a little bit disappointed that breakfast has now become a buffet for the "continental" part of it, even drinks are self serve. When we were there before it was all traditional table service and felt a bit nicer. It was still a great breakfast I would just prefer the old way! The outdoor pool was lovely and the spa was nice too. Views are incredible. Staff are veryfriendly and welcoming.Would definitely go back!

Gara Rock ist ein echter Kraftort – direkt an der Küste gelegen, absolut ruhig und abgeschieden mit einem atemberaubenden Blick. Die Lage ist spektakulär, perfekt zum Abschalten und Auftanken. Das gesamte Team war äußerst freundlich und hochmotiviert – der Service ließ keine Wünsche offen. Besonders begeistert hat mich die entspannte Massage – einfach himmlisch. Das Zimmer war wunderschön, sehr sauber und mit seinen hohen Decken wunderbar großzügig. Ein Ort, an den man definitiv zurückkehren möchte.

We had an amazing room, The Penthouse, with beautiful views of the coast. Had a very warm welcome. We did repeatedly say the trip was to celebrate our Ruby wedding Anniversary but this was not acknowledged! The interior decor and setting is beautiful. We had dinner and room service, food was nice but menu was the similar and a bit limited but other days we found so many nice places to eat. The breakfast was nice, especially eating on the terrace but was let down by having to make your own hot drinks at the buffet with poor quality tea bags. There were so many dogs even in the restaurant and unfortunately dog poo in the grounds although obviously this was the owners fault it was rather off putting. We had some lovely walks along the coastal path and down to the beach, very steep on the return!

Fabulous location with stunning views , this Hotel was generally tired and despite being on the south coast of Devon had only one Fish course on its specials menu which was. very disappointing. Service was friendly and courteous but always slow. Although we did not any there is no air conditioning and during our stay the hotels only lift was out of order. A hotel in urgent need of investment !

We had the most amazing stay at gara rock . The place is beautiful and set in amazing beachside settings with breathtaking views. Everything is exceptional, the hotel, the setting, the food and the staff. They really made the stay fantastic as they went above and beyond to accommodate you and make sure you have the best stay. They were so friendly and helpful every single one of them. We didn’t want to leave. We will definitely be returning!

Hotel is fantastic, only future request would be to ensure travel cot has an associated mattress. Overall a really enjoyable stay

Beautiful, the views really make this hotel magical. Its tucked away so you need a car if you're going out for dinner, the ferry is about a 30 minute walk and up/down steep steps, and stops at 6:30pm. Drinks were outrageously priced.. £16.50 for a beer, a soft drink and two packets of crisps!! All is forgiven when you take in the sea though. The interiors are also beautiful. Breakfast overlooking the little cove was just the most incredible way to start the day, and it was delicious! One irritation for me is not having anywhere to put shower gel etc. in the shower - but now I am being picky!!

By far the best hotel I have staying for years. Will be visiting again.

Great hotel. Top tip - follow the hotel’s instructions on driving to the hotel. We followed our satnav / GPS and ended up in “the lanes” which are scary narrow roads. The walks from the hotel are stunning along the coastline. Dinner a bit pricey.

As usual we had a wonderful stay at Gara Rock. We come here a couple of times a year and are never disappointed!! Love it there!

We were quite disappointed with our stay. For the money we were hoping for better service and better food. Food was very disappointing throughout, often having to send back cold food and disjointed service even though it wasn’t busy. For the Sunday roast they couldn’t accommodate someone with Crohn’s which was quite poor. Overall customer service was quiet bad and we were celebrating but it was disappointing on many levels. Breakfast service was diabolical. After we paid then were asked for some feedback on our stay. We won’t be returning.

Beautiful hotel in the most stunning location. Fantastic for dog walking and miles away from anything. Beautiful views, with access to sea and sand. Lovely food, rooms are great. Sadly didn’t get to use the spa as was fully booked but very quiet in the hotel so not sure how had booked it!

Great location next to coast path with views of sea

It would have been nice to have ironed linen. Also if staff were a little more interested in their guests rather than their mobiles. Overall a nice stay.
