Amazing place with lots to do. Pool was disappointing as it was quite cold and the changing rooms were in a terrible state and unclean. Food was fantastic, service was slow but the waiter/waitress were so very friendly. Room was lovely and clean
I was a guest at The Mole checking out on Monday, 2 February. When I returned home I realised that I had misplaced my stainless steel Rolex.
I spoke that evening to Steve Parfitt on reception who immediately checked the pool locker and kindly called me back to inform me that he had found it. Steve offered to meet me at the railway station some 15 miles away and I took the train down, and he was able to return my watch to me in person.
This watch holds particular sentimental value, as my two brothers and I all own the same model. I am therefore extremely grateful for Steve’s honesty, efficiency, and kindness.
I would like to commend The Mole Resort for employing such a trustworthy and dedicated member of staff. Steve Parfitt is truly a credit their organisation, and they and the guests are very fortunate to have someone of his calibre on their team. This reflects very well on the Mole resort.
I would just like to add the the pool and sauna facilities of "The Mole" are outstanding - as are their honest efficient staff.
Great all round experience, shower wasnt great, tried to book a massage but they didnt have staff.
Food was lovely breakfast and dinner, sauna and steam room was great and a well equipped gym.
The hub was good lots of reasonably priced foods and nibbles
Not very clearly signed when you arrive on how to check in, and no lighting, so hard to navigate if you arrive at night time… Make sure to go to the hub first!

Great outdoor pursuits resort
Fab resort for families wanting to enjoy the outdoors. Extremely helpful, attentive and friendly staff. Some areas need tlc, our room was too small for two adults, but otherwise great resort.
Great family resort with beautiful gardens. We had a room overlooking a lovely garden that is great when you have pets and a small patio area to sunbathe. Breakfast was great and restaurant food ok. The Exeter Inn a few mins walk away is pet friendly and food is excellent. Indoor pool area was lovely and not very busy. Great fitness room as well.
Amazing place and the staff were incredible. Highly recommend this place, you have to go there. Facilities are amazing and everything was so great. Room was awesome too, thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you to the whole team there, excellent stay.
We only spent one night at The Mole Resort as we were in the area for a funeral, but the staff, our room in the Manor House, and breakfast, were all wonderful.
Excellent stay. The bed was very comfy, I slept the best I have in ages. The staff were friendly and attentive and the food was fantastic. The spa facilities were excellent we could have spent all day there. Will definitely be staying again.
Lovely hotel. Clean and tidy. Food at the hotel was good. Only negative was that I dropped my earring on the floor pulled the bed out and found loads of bugs, made me itch once I found out I had slept next to them. Just hope none have come home with me.
