The Three Crowns Hotel, also Three Crowns Chagford, is a historical hotel in Chagford, Devon, England. The hotel, noted for its granite facade and 13th century features, has 21 rooms.[1]

The oldest block of the building dates to late 16th century. The building has been extended several times over the years. It was a manor house for centuries before becoming an inn (formerly called Black Swan). It is a Grade II* listed building.[2]

The hotel has been reported to be haunted since 1643 by Sidney Godolphin, a poet who fought as a Cavalier during the English Civil War and is said to stride the corridors in full uniform.[3]
