The Two Bridges Hotel is located on the banks of the West Dart River. Individually styled rooms, ranging from double and twin rooms to four poster rooms with spa baths. Crackling log fires, flickering candlelight and gleaming antiques all help to set the scene for a break away in the wilds of Dartmoor.

A map dated 1765 suggests the origin of the name, for in those days the road crossed both the West Dart and the River Cowsic, just upstream from the point where they meet, and required two separate bridges. In the 18th century, Two Bridges was best known for its potato market. This would have been an open-air market where growers from the Chagford and Moretonhampstead area brought their produce to be sold. The location of this venue could not have been better situated as it gave both producers and buyers access to a convenient convergence of what was then and still is today, the primary roads across the moor. The market appears to have been at its peak around about 1770. In 1792 Sir Frances Buller built a coaching inn and called it the Saracen’s Head simply because a Saracen's head appeared on his family crest. In 1803 the inn changed its name to the Saracen's Head Hotel. Around the early 1900s, the hotel finally changed to its current name – the Two Bridges Hotel when it was in the ownership of the Allanson family. The award-winning Tors Restaurant (2 AA Rosettes, and Taste of the West Gold Award) serves the very best local, seasonal produce, complemented by a fine and extensive wine list. Rates including full Dartmoor Breakfast. Enjoy the cold buffet selection of fruits, cereals, pastries and yoghurts, then a cooked breakfast of choice including fish and vegetarian options. The award-winning Tors Restaurant serves the finest Devon produce in relaxed yet very stylish surroundings, with lighter bites available in the bar and lounges. Devon Cream Teas are a real treat at the Two Bridges Hotel.
