The Fox and Hounds Hotel is a friendly, family run hotel on the edge of Dartmoor National Park in Okehampton, Devon, run by the same family for many years and open all day, every day. On site you'll find two bars, a restaurant, a games room with pool and darts, a beer garden, a children's play area, and a skittle alley that doubles as a function room with its own bar. A trackway behind the hotel leads directly onto the moor, and the bar's west-facing position makes for memorable sunset views towards Bodmin Moor and Cornwall. The area offers easy access to Dartmoor attractions and museums, including the Museum of Dartmoor Life nearby, with good transport links via the restored Okehampton to Exeter rail connection and a bus stop right outside.
