I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which is perfectly situated near both Lynton and Lynmouth. The rooms, though a bit on the small side, were adequately equipped and comfortable. The staff were incredibly welcoming and eager to help, truly making the experience pleasant. On the flip side, we did find the dining options somewhat limited, and at times, the temperature in the room was quite chilly, making it less than ideal. Overall, it's a charming spot with great value for money, especially given the location.

I recently stayed at this hotel and while the location is beautiful and the owners are helpful, I found the room quite basic and not very warm. The service was decent, but there were some issues with owner courtesy. Overall, it’s a well-placed spot for exploring Exmoor, but it could use some improvements in room comfort.

I had a delightful stay in a beautifully located hotel that really captured the charm of North Devon. The rooms were a bit unique in decor but had everything I needed, from a mini-fridge to a lovely fruit bowl. The staff went above and beyond with their helpfulness and local recommendations.

This hotel really impressed me with its fantastic location in Lynton, right across from the charming sea. The rooms were clean and came with nice amenities like a mini-fridge and tea-making facilities. I got to enjoy a comfortable stay, although the temperatures in the room dipped a bit too low for my liking at times. The breakfast was delightful but lacked variety, and while the service was genuinely friendly, it felt a bit fresh, as it seemed the owner was still settling in. Overall, I had a lovely time in one of the best spots in Devon.

I stayed at this hotel recently and was charmed by its location in Lynton and Lynmouth, which has such a special vibe. The shower room was a highlight, offering plenty of power and heat. However, the rooms felt unreasonably cold, and getting to them meant climbing three flights of stairs, which was less than ideal after a long day out. The breakfast was delicious, but the limited dining options during other meals left something to be desired.
