I had a mixed experience at this B&B. The room had a very good size balcony with a sea view, but unfortunately, it overlooked a very noisy road, making it hard to get a good night's sleep. The service was lovely, and they are in the process of revamping the building, which is a plus. The location was convenient for exploring North Devon, but the noise from the road was a drawback. The dining experience was great, with tasty food and even a refreshing dip in the outdoor pool.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were the perfect mix of modern and quirky with the additional bonus of a balcony offering amazing sea views. They were to a good standard, even better than other B&Bs in North Devon. The service, provided by the owner, was top-notch, and the ambience felt nice and quiet despite being on the main road through the village. The location was superb, close to the town center, SW coast path, and plenty of attractions. The dining experience was delightful, keeping me satisfied until dinner. The facilities were fantastic, complementing my overall experience.
