I Worked There!

A Memory of Haytor Vale.

It was a Trust House Hotel when I worked there in the bar for a few years up to 1964. By that time it was very much larger than the photograph shows. The manager was Mr. Trew. It never made any money due to the short season. When it burnt down about 1967/8 it was left almost derelict for many years until purchased by a wealthy businessman from Torbay who restored part of it and ran it more or less as a hobby.

The stables in the grounds were in use as a separate business most of this time until the buildings were converted to a Craft Centre about 1980.
