Hotels & Accommodation near The Big Sheep

An initial, disappointing start to our stay was quickly remedied, quietly, politely and professionally. From then on everything was so much better. The Hotel is probably a little understaffed (a reflection of the economic strains of current hospitality?) so often a Team member had to be searched out but once found were polite, attentive and friendly. Our room, a late booking so limited choice, was compact but nevertheless comfortable with an excellent rain shower in the bathroom and a good view of the river. We found a delightful lounge on the first floor from which we could watch the world go by as the river ebbed and flowed whilst enjoying the occasional glass of beer, or two!! Dinner on each night was a lovely occasion in a stylish dining room, well cooked food, nicely presented and served by delightful staff.

Some issues with dates for booking but did get things sorted eventually. Would be nice to have a way to communicate that is not a phone number as from out of country do not want to be calling. (WhatsApp or text)

We had a fantastic time staying here!! The host Stephen was incredibly helpful with any questions we had and was generous enough to let us stay past our check out time when our car broke down!! The area had plenty to do, would highly recommend going to Clovelly as well as watching the sunset from the cliffs backing onto the house. Thank you for such a wonderful stay, we hope to return in the future
