Our treehouse is a truly magical place to spend a few days. Set apart from the main hotel, with its own private garden and views across one of our ponds, it’s the perfect retreat and somewhere you can really make your own.

Wake to the sound of the morning birds and enjoy the view from your own veranda, right amongst the oak tree canopy. Wander over to the hotel for breakfast, and then the day is yours. Explore the grounds, walk down to the River Taw, head out into the Taw Valley, or simply enjoy a few hours back at the treehouse.

Put the kettle on, curl up with a book by the wood burner, catch up on your latest series, or pour a glass of w**e and sink into the deep copper bath. And when it’s eventually time for bed, fall asleep to the sound of the owls.

With late summer slowly giving way to autumn, surely this is one of the loveliest times to stay at the Fox?

PART-TIME HOUSEKEEPING – FLEXIBLE, FAMILY-FRIENDLY HOURS 🧹

Looking for a job that actually fits around family life?

We’re looking for a friendly, reliable person to join our Housekeeping Team at The Fox & Hounds Country Hotel, Eggesford.

This could be a great role for someone looking for part-time work during school hours, or simply a job with a little more flexibility.

✅ Flexible part-time hours
✅ School-friendly shifts available
✅ Friendly, supportive team
✅ Beautiful countryside workplace
✅ No evenings
✅ Previous housekeeping experience helpful, but not essential

The role involves helping us prepare our Hotel bedrooms and public areas so they’re looking their best for our guests. More than anything, we’re looking for someone who is reliable, takes pride in doing a good job and enjoys being part of a team.

We’re happy to talk about hours that work for you – whether that’s a few days a week, school hours, or something slightly different.

Interested?
Send us an email to: [email protected] or call the Hotel on 01769 580345 and tell us a little bit about yourself.

Late summer on the River Taw. 🎣

With the fishing season in full swing, it’s a lovely time to enjoy the river and the Devon countryside.

Spend a few quiet hours fishing the Taw, explore the local footpaths, or find a comfortable spot with a good book. Then enjoy some freshly prepared food from our restaurant and perhaps a drink from the bar.

There are plenty of ways to enjoy a few days at the Fox & Hounds.
