Capella

Capella is a lovingly restored Victorian house just off the main street in Okehampton. It is close to the cycle route and just around the corner from a new sports centre. Rooms are either en-suite or with private shower rooms and all have hospitality tray, colour television and hair dryer. The shower rooms are supplied with everything a guest might have forgotten to bring.

Breakfast is individually cooked to order from a large menu and served in the original dining room, now furnished with beautiful antique dining table and chairs. Special diets can be catered for and vegetarian options feature on the breakfast menu. Guests are welcome to sit in the garden and enjoy their breakfast coffee on the patio.

The bedrooms are charmingly decorated and furnished with very comfortable beds and plenty of hanging space. The English Tourist Board recently awarded Capella 4 stars for excellent standards. All rooms are either twin or double rooms but can be let as singles with a small supplement.

We offer secure storage for bikes and will happily wash and dry clothes for walkers and cyclists. Capella is 2 minutes from the Okehampton golf course and Dartmoor starts at the end of the road. The old railway station is also only a few minutes away and runs steam and diesel trains to Exeter and Meldon Quarry during the summer.

Okehampton itself is home to the Museum of Dartmoor Life and a thriving farmers market. The newly-opened multi-screen cinema shows 4 films every day. It is an ideal stop en-route to Cornwall, the Eden Project, the Lost Gardens of Heligon, St. Ives and all the coastline and beaches of Devon and Cornwall. The city of Exeter, with great shopping and a beautiful cathedral is 25 miles away on the A30.
