    The room was well appointed and bathroom spotlessly clean. The common areas were nice and provided options other than sitting in room. Walking distance to town. Breakfast was great!

Neighborhood info

Great base for a number of activities. If you like walking the coast path is accessible just 100 metres away, and Exmoor is just a short drive away. Chambercombe Manor is just a short walk away, as is Hele Corn Mill, which is the best tea room in Devon, especially if you like a cream tea. For the family orientated Combe martin Dinosaur Park, Exmoor Zoo & Watermouth Castle are all nearby, and Woolacombe Beach is a short drive away. Or just stay in Ilfracombe with its Curious Coastal Charm, numerous art galleries, and home Damien Hirst's Verity
