Dolphin Hotel

The Dolphin Hotel enjoys a prominent position on Station Road, with excellent road connections via the A382, which links to Newton Abbot and Moretonhampstead. Its location makes it an ideal stop for travellers exploring South Devon’s coast and countryside. With attractions such as Bovey Castle close by and Dartmoor on the doorstep, the Dolphin is perfectly placed to capture the significant tourist traffic that passes through the town.

Bovey Tracey is a thriving market town of around 8,000 residents, set at the very edge of the spectacular Dartmoor National Park. Known locally as the “Gateway to the Moor”, it attracts walkers, cyclists, and holidaymakers year-round, all looking to explore Dartmoor’s dramatic landscapes and charming villages. The town itself has a lively community spirit, supported by independent shops, cafés, galleries, and a busy events calendar that ensures a steady flow of visitors all year.

The landlords have invested £250,000 to refurbish the guest-facing areas, including the main bar and restaurant, entrance lobby, and toilets. The thoughtful redesign added covers and created a more efficient trading layout. The spacious and sociable bar area allows for events all year round, supported by a large function room which can accommodate formal dining for up to 140 guests, and has its own private bar.

The Dolphin is a substantial property, offering:

• 8 en-suite letting rooms
• A large function suite with its own bar, seating up to 140 guests
• Spacious trading areas (bar, dining, reception)
• A garden and on-site parking

The Dolphin Hotel benefits from two refurbished, excellent private apartments. One is located on the top floor of the building and has one bedroom, a lounge, a kitchen and a bathroom. The other is located on the ground floor and has two bedrooms with an en-suite bathroom and an open plan lounge, kitchen and dining room.
