More Reasons to Go

The food was marvelous, good sized portions and scrumptious.

The accessible bedroom was very difficult to get to with a walker, as a narrow corner had to be negotiated which included a fire extinguisher.

Great hotel with lovely comfortable rooms and atmosphere. We were a little disappointed with dinner. The waitress was brilliant however, realised and returned the dish. Breakfast on our second day was very slow as there were a lot of guests and one over worked server. Normally we would not have worried but today we were in a hurry. Generally a great , historical and comfortable place to stay.

Quirky old pub building with wonky floors but the hotel rooms are well furnished and the bathrooms and showers are modern.

We were initially given a room with a bath and handheld shower over, but preferred a proper shower cubicle. The hotel was happy to accommodate our request and able to give us a different room. All management and staff were very helpful and friendly. Great location by the harbour.

Excellent from beginning to end. Staff were so very helpful and nothng seemed to be too much trouble. The location was just what anyone could wish for, and the sea views were spectacular especially from the Cottage (which we had). We will certainly return.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
I was a bit disappointed in the room on first entering, but it's charm grew on me. Our sea view room was small, but comfortable (thedouble bed was a bit short for my husband). Also, there was a rolltop,clawfoot bath (personally, I would prefer a shower - but that is a minor point ,really - unless mobility is an issue). Bedding and towels were good quality. The sloping floor showed the antiquity of the building- a real sense of history throughout the hotel.
The sea view room has a window seat to soak up the delightful setting - and watch the sun rise, if you want to get up early enough (I almost did!)

We didn't have an evening meal at the hotel, but enjoyed a glass of wine in the bar and noticed a great range of beers. Breakfast was lovely - especially the homemade granola.

Atmospheric old building in centre of Lynmouth. Room small but cool in a heatwave. Simon on reception excellent. Restaurant staff willing but a bit agricultural.
