New room photos now on-line

As our regular guests (and visitors to our Blog) know, we've been busy refreshing our bedrooms recently.  Nothing too dramatic, but a lick of fresh paint here, some new fittings there, and a few other changes to surprise and delight our guests without changing the much-loved and character-full environment which is so much a part of the Mill End Hotel.
We've finally got round to having some great new photos taken of our bedrooms, and have incorporated some of these into our website to help our guests choose the very best room for them.
We've also taken the opportunity to rename our rooms after each of the rivers here on Dartmoor and the surrounding areas of Devon.
Have a look at our updated "Rooms" page, complete with the new photos, by clicking here

Cutting the ribbon with Michael Caines

Tristan and Wayne with Michael Caines
The annual Festival of Food, Drink and Arts, held a couple of weeks ago in our neighbouring lovely Dartmoor town of Moretonhampstead, was a great success and certainly drew in the crowds.
A few of our guests that weekend took the opportunity to visit the festival, and everyone seemed to enjoy our head chef Wayne's delicious onion soup tasters on offer to festival-goers!
Wayne, and our hotel manager Tristan, were delighted to help celebrity chef Michael Caines cut the ribbon to open festival proceedings.

Festival of Food, Drink and Arts

This weekend (Saturday 5th March), our neighbouring Dartmoor town of Moretonhampstead is once again home to the popular annual Moretonhampstead Festival of Food, Drink and Arts.

The event runs from early morning through to late afternoon, with live music throughout the day and into the evening.

Naturally local food and expert cooking take centre stage, including demonstrations from celebrity chef Michael Caines and a feature appearance from our very own Head Chef here at Mill End, Wayne Pearson.  Wayne will be cooking up a piping hot, delicious Onion Soup, and of course tasters will be available!

Relaunch Party at Mill End

Sue and Peter Davies, Mill End Hotel
We had the great pleasure of welcoming over a hundred guests - friends, neighbours, local business-people and our valued local suppliers - to an evening of drinks, canapes and fireside chat to celebrate the relaunch of Mill End Hotel last week.

A very pleasant evening all round, and a good opportunity for us to show off the results of the refurbishment work that's been keeping us busy over the last couple of months.

It was a delight to hear so many positive things about Mill End's reputation locally, and to receive some very nice and genuine feedback about the improvements we've made of late.

Word is certainly spreading regarding our new Sunday Lunch menu, which is proving a big hit with locals and visitors alike.  And the improvements we've made to our bedrooms seem to have been very well received.
