"Rocky Cove" is a grand old house, right by the harbour, with lovely, freshly-decorated rooms.
Our hosts, Jonah and Nic, could not have been more welcoming and helpful - they made our stays feel really special.

Ilfracombe is a lovely place to visit, however please be aware how hilly it is. Walking down to harbour is easy but the return journey can be a bit of a slog.
Had gluten free fish and chips from Lynbay fish and chip shop.
Gluten free cream tea from St James tea garden.
Wasn't overly impressed with the beach as it mainly slate pebbles, but Woolacombe is not far away with golden sands.

Many part of this town including its HIGH STREET are looking terribly run down and rough. So too some pubs ...
I'm sure it will perk up in higher season but money needs to be spent on its appearance .
The streets felt as safe as most places in Britain and some Bistros and cafes were delightful. Roads are narrow and some extremely vertiginous . Parking can be an issue in high season I guess.

Ilfracombe is worth a visit and is probably better in the summer than when we visited. We preferred Woolacombe and Puttsborough beach is great for surfing. We walked around Baggy Point and saw some amazing views. Well worth a visit.

There were some really lovely parts of Ilfracombe and some not so nice , like most towns . Most of the architecture is stunning with old and new together but some new don't fit in. The scenery on the coast is amazing with lots of craggy coves and you can walk along the South West Coast Path . There is a small harbour where a stunning Damien Hirst statue is of Verity ,Statue of Justice if I remember correctly Parts of Ilfracombe are quite steep but there are slopes and some roads on the flat. We ate Sunday lunch at the Thatched Inn , had Breakfast at the Lime Kiln Cafe down by a cove . We loved it.

Lovely rugged coastline all still very natural.
Lovely rugged coastline all still very natural. The town however was a little disappointing in terms of felt a bit run down and lacking in investment in some areas. Worth a visit altho not too long as I think more useful to use as a base to travel than a holiday in as wasn’t enough to offer.

As we were attending a wedding it was a good location for us but probably not the right time of year for shopping etc as most of the shops were empty or closed down. I'm sure its much better in the summer!
Terence and Piper were excellent and accommodating right from the start. This is a lovely and really well thought through hotel where the care and attention to detail from the owners can be seen throughout; from the fantastic colour scheme and decoration, to the comfy beds and delicious breakfast. This was our first visit to Ilfracombe and I couldn’t recommend this place enough.
Good location with parking. Few minutes walk to town and harbour. Matt and Amanda are excellent hosts, very friendly with loads of local knowledge about best places to visit, eat etc.
The bedroom beautifully decorated and clean. Bed very comfy. Bathroom spotless. Good shower with plenty of hot water.
Excellent choice for breakfast.
Good WiFi connection.
Lovely top floor apartment ...great views over Ilfracombe. Clean and spacious. Comfy beds too, Lots of contact with host prior and during stay very helpful. We did not meet host but was given lots of useful info and was immediately contactable when we got confused over which apartment we had!
Beautiful, big and comfortable room in a lovely building, with staff offering a very friendly and efficient service. I feel it's the kind of place you could stay in for longer, as it's not cramped and situated in a nice part of Ilfracombe. I'm definitely recommending it to friends.
Everything was lovely! Rod is a wonderful host and so helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Breakfast was exceptional as well.
You can walk to the harbour within 10mins, we always got a taxi back for less than £4. Great location will definitely be back! Thanks again Rod!
Location excellent and quiet room. Loved the room as bed extremely comfortable and shower had plenty of hot water. The room smelt fresh and bedding clean. Hotel reception staff were very very friendly and helpful, thank you for a lovely relaxing stay. We will return.
loved the view from the window on the top floor and sitting on the window seat looking out over ilfracombe. The bed was comfortable and the hosts mum and dad (who were looking after the place while they were on holiday) were lovely and welcoming.
lovely location in beautiful countryside but within walking distance of Ilfracombe .The hotel was newly decorated,cosy room with great views of the surrounding countryside.Hosts were friendly and breakfasts were first class.
Very pleasant staff and clean and comfortable apartment with sea view as requested. Also did a surprise raffle upon check in! Very good base for exploring North Devon! Lots of car park spaces. Will definitely come back.
Spotlessly clean apartment and hotel like beds and bedding. New kitchen and bathroom. Lounge and dining area comfortable. Great apartment, can't fault it. Great indoor soft play area. Kids enjoyed the swimming pool.
We regularly visit Ilfracombe and we love this hotel. It’s by far the best we’ve stayed in there. I’ve also stayed there as a single female traveller and have always felt perfectly safe and comfortable.
The hotel is central to everything in Ilfracombe. The room was lovely, spacious and immaculate. Breakfast was delicious, hot and well cooked. The whole hotel was lovely, clean, warm and comfortable.
Location was fine - a great walk down into Ilfracombe harbour - quite steep on the way back up. Hotel was brilliant. Proprietors were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was top class - thank you
The location was perfect for visiting Ilfracombe and surrounding areas.
The hotel owners were lovely - very helpful, friendly and nothing was too much trouble. And breakfast was excellent!
The hotel was ideally situated for the resort and our travel to work at the Ilfracombe Holiday Park, just 4 minutes away. Our breakfasts were excellent and the room was very comfortable.
Great location, near the harbour beach, quick run across the road for the dog in the morning - off leash beach run, perfect. Very comfortable flat, welcoming bottle of wine on arrival.
Hotel is situated in a quiet backstreet but close to all ammenities. Lovely sea-view from the room we were in. Staff and in particular the owner were very friendly and helpful.
