“The Cleave Inn feels like a genuine piece of Lustleigh, a C16th pub nestled in a quiet village ideal for Dartmoor exploration. I appreciated the spacious, quiet rooms and the individually prepared breakfasts, with Paul, the host, proving exceptionally helpful. It's a place where good food, well-kept beer, and friendly staff come together, making it a truly inviting stop.”
