BADGERS HOLT TEA ROOMS
IMPORTANT UPDATE FOR CUSTOMERS FOR 2023
Dear valued Customers
We hope this message finds you well. We would like to update you on some changes here at Badgers Holt with effect from 1st March this year.
Over the past 18 months, Badgers Holt has had the pleasure of hosting many incredible weddings, family celebrations and fabulous group gatherings. During 2023 we will be even busier and we’re delighted to be hosting the special wedding day celebrations for over 25 couples as well as a number of events and welcoming numerous guests for their stays in our freshly redecorated holiday apartments.
To enable us to focus on delivering an amazing experience for these special events and our holiday accommodation guests, we have made the difficult decision not to open the tea rooms and grounds to the public in 2023.
We are sorry if this news comes as a disappointment to our loyal tearoom customers. However, discussions with third parties about running pop-up cafe event days are occurring, and we encourage you to watch our website and page for any progress on this.
We sincerely hope to welcome you back to a future event, wedding or perhaps even a stay in our lovely riverside accommodation. If you do have an occasion in mind, we would be delighted to chat with you about what we can offer.
We would further like to thank our fantastic team who have returned year on year to work with us. We owe a big thank you for your support shown. We’re so pleased that you’ve all agree to stay with us and take on some exciting new adventures this year.

Badgers Holt grounds will not be open/accessible to the general public (areas marked orange below).
The Chalet (Ice Cream & Takeaway) in the car park is planning to increase their range of food offerings and have more consistent opening hours throughout the year, even offering cream teas! They very much hope to welcome Badgers Holt tearoom customers. Please direct any Chalet questions directly to them at [email protected]. See their page for updates.
Dartmeet Car Parks: The main car park (tarmac’d) is not owned or operated by Badgers Holt, it will still be available as normal (£2 all day, cash only) and people can still picnic along the river (light green below). The small car park (gravelled) in front of the toilet block is owned by the ice cream chalet and remains £1 cash or card for the day.
Access up river (via the signposted public footpath) down river and the wider moor remains unchanged. There is no public footpath through Badgers Holt.
