Beautifully situated within easy walking distance of shops/walks/harbour and beach. Room 16 was small, which is expected in an old building, but was characterful with great sea view. The thick walls made it very cool on a scorching day. Only downside was bath could do with a shower curtain and car park gets very busy and is 5 min walk. Enjoyed the food in the restaurant both at breakfast and dinner. Would stay again.

Perfectly positioned on the edge of the harbour. Our room was a standard, very small especially as we had our golden retriever with us. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is very good, with a great selection.

This is a really nice old fashioned pub style accomodation but has a really good chef and therefore very good food. Slightly above the average price but well worth it. However there are other local options for dining. The room overlooked the bay and you could see surfers in the distance along with the small harbour. The famous Lynton to Lynmouth railway is just round the corner and well worth a trip for the spectacular views. Will definitely go back at some point.

Really nice cosy rooms. Dinner was absolutely fantastic - had the duck. Breakfast was okay but probably not the best quality ingredients

We had such a lovely stay. Great location and very quaint. The only negative, the bathroom would have benefitted from a shower versus bath.

Quirky

Lovely quirky place. Super bar and dining room. Loved the view, the uneven floor in our room, the quaint stairs, the helpful staff. The shower was wonderful. The only negative is that the bed was too narrow. I think it was a basic double and we're used to having king or superking when we stay in a hotel. Not massively important, and it didn't spoil our stay, but would have liked a vegan full English breakfast option. Hope to stay again in the future.
