Convenient and flexible stay. Very friendly staff and generous portions for breakfast. Can be noisy in the mornings, especially with windows open.

A fairly basic hotel but it had what I needed for a stay before going to Lundy. No issues. Comprehensive breakfast choice.

Perfect for a trip to Lundy
Lin is lovely and I honestly don't know how she does it. it's an old house like most in Ilfracombe so don't expect a lift and the car park is quite steep. I stayed here for a few days either side of a trip to Lundy and it was perfect for me. Lin would have let me leave my car in the car park had she not been full but it was perfectly safe on the road outside as there are no restrictions and it was only a 15 minute walk to the pier. Breakfast is great if a little late for me - I'm an early riser at home. The fridge on the landing was a nice surprise and very useful with Lidl just around the corner. I'd definitely recommend this place and stay here again..

Pleasant overnight stopover.
One night stay whilst hiking the SW Coast Path. Good location about 10 minutes walk from town. Quiet area. Friendly, welcoming host. Large clean room. Comfy bed. Fan supplied as was very hot. Clean, renovated bathroom with nice shower. Good breakfast. Honesty bar.

had a good stay here and the breakfast was out of this world! Really good value. Beautiful and clean rooms with the best shower ever! Plenty of tea, coffee etc. Perfect location, easy and pretty walk to town but in a very quiet and quaint street. Ilfracombe is quirky and fab but clearly suffering the same social issues as many seaside towns and was a little uncomfortable with children out and about in the evening. I cannot give 5 stars as there was a bit of a tone of this in the guest house. There was a persistent smell of cigarettes, some incredible strange goings on in the night. Lots of movement, banging and shouting. The hostess was a very interesting lady. While she attempted to be welcoming and clearly works very hard I felt she was very over familiar and at times It felt uncomfortable. I would potentially return based on the rooms, food, price and location but absolutely not with children!

I cannot given 5 stars as there was a bit of a tone of this in the guest house. There was a persistent smell of cigarettes, some incredible strange goings on in the night. At around 4am it sounded like small children running about and a man shouting, yet we never saw any other children. The hostess was a very interested lady. While she attempted to be welcoming and clearly works very hard I felt she was very over familiar and at times It felt uncomfortable.
