Property details
- Dreamy Devon: Nestled within 125 acres of rolling Devon countryside, The Mole Resort is a heavenly retreat for back-to-nature escapes. Dotted across the Manor House and estate, its beautiful hotel rooms blend modern amenities with charming decor. All of this combined with breathtaking natural scenery, activities aplenty and an eco-friendly focus, and you’re in for an experience like no other.
- Cream comes first: In defiance of its clotted-cream rival Cornwall, in Devon it’s cream first, jam second - decide for yourself with a classic The Mole cream tea, featuring homemade scones and sandwiches. Elsewhere, innovative dishes made with local and sustainable ingredients take centre-stage at the Devon View Restaurant.
- All-you-can-country: From classic outdoor pursuits to fun fitness classes, there are plenty of ways to get moving. The fully-equipped fitness centre is your go-to for classic workouts, HIIT sessions and more - and after long days out, unwind with a soak in the indoor and outdoor pools, or a soothing session in the Jacuzzi, steam room and sauna.
How to get there
An easy two-hour train journey from London Paddington will take you to Tiverton Parkway, the nearest station to The Mole Resort at about 45 minutes away by car or taxi. If you’re driving, London is just under 5 hours away, and you’ll want to head towards South Molton.
Good to know
The hotel strongly suggests booking a taxi transfer for guests arriving to Tiverton Parkway via train. They recommend using the local taxi company South Molton Taxi Service.
Entry requirements
The passport, visa and health requirements at the time of booking can be viewed on the Foreign and Commonwealth Office website for UK citizens, and on the Department of Foreign Affairs website for IE citizens. It is your responsibility to ensure that you and all members of your party are in possession of all necessary travel and health documents, and in compliance with any other immigration/entry requirements before you travel, including whether your passport must be machine readable or which visas/waivers may be required for entry, such as ESTA for USA travel and/or ETIAS for EU travel.

Chittlehamholt, Umberleigh EX37 9HD
Sophisticated sporty types won’t have to look far - the resort has no fewer than seven all-weather tennis courts, a croquet lawn, a five-aside football pitch, and informal games like foot-golf and disc-golf. And if you’re in the mood for sightseeing, the delightful towns of Barnstaple and South Molton are a short drive away, and you’ll be 40 minutes from the beach at Westward Ho.
