Location as beautiful as it looked on the pictures. Liked the lounge area in the hotel part, just wish we'd had longer to make the most of it! Great pub food and very friendly staff. Tasty breakfast cooked to order. Liked that the beach was dog free.

As is to be expected in an old building, creaky floorboards and plumbing noises. Sounded like we were over the kitchen or something as there were noises from what could have been taps being turned on and off. The hotel is actually separate from the pub - only a few steps walk from one to the other but enough to need a coat as it's pretty exposed. But fortunately it wasn't raining!

Location is superb, you can fall asleep with the sound of sea, a lot of space to sit out and in the building, delightful lounge for hotel guests, very good english breakfast, friendly staff, clean and comfortable room, efficient heating (much appreciated in November).

No bathroom door. I don't know, maybe it is normal on the coast or normal at this time of the year, but there was significant amount of flies getting into the room once I opened the window. I had to keep it shut all the time.

I really loved this hotel which is surrounded by mountains hills and a beach and very far from any town. I didnt find any resort / hotel in uk like we used to get in Africa. But I think we finally found really hotel to stay on our holidays or long weekends. - Staff is really amazing and helpful as few things were new for me but the staff described me in a very effective manner - rooms were so clean and tidy. Big thanks for all housekeepers who really work hard on everyday. - Breakfast was really good as we got first complimentary meal ( like coffee, juice, tea, cornflakes etc ) but later , they had included really good menu and quantity was very good enough. - Meal was really nice and interior of bar was so creative. Specially that board’ send me pictures of Boat and Motor ‘ 😂👌 - Free parking which is cost effective - You can go for a walk or hiking a bit . If you’re planning to go for hiking then keep tracking shoes - lovely place to explore nearby

Nothing to dislike

The position of the hotel is outstanding and the views from the garden and area quite stunning. Our room was well set up and comfortable with a spacious bathroom and great bath and shower with immediate hot water. The welcome book in the room was a beautiful photo book with all the information we could want. The cost was very reasonable for the room and for a little more, we could have had a room with superb views of the coast. The 'small meal' at a very reasonable cost in the restaurant was just what I wanted and the choices were varied and quickly prepared. Breakfast included a good spread of choice and the cooked breakfast was like the whole experience - quality ingredients! The staff were friendly and welcoming and quick to help for different requests.

There was nothing that didn't please!

This hotel was an excellent find....and the only one available in this area of our South West Coast Path walk. The room and en-suite was immaculate and newly painted/maintained and the food in the restaurant was outstanding. We didn't have breakfast the next morning as we wanted to get away very early, so the host made us up a packed lunch to take instead - it was fabulous!

N/A

The hotel was lovely, clean and comfortable. Food at restaurant great for evening meal and included breakfast also wonderful. The staff could not do enough for us and were all very attentive without being intrusive. BUT, without a doubt, the most outstanding feature of our stay was the location! The position of this hotel is absolutely amazing. The huge dark cliffs running down to the sea, teamed with jagged rocks and a pounding surf made for very atmospheric conditions! We were almost at the end of our 3.5 mth, 24 country, part World tour, and the location of this hotel was easily in the Top 10 places we had visited. Thanks so much for a memorable stay. We wish it could have been longer!

Everything was great. Nothing to dislike.

The location is unique, with stunning views of the North Devon coast. The hotel is at the edge of the cliffs.

I booked a single room which was very modest looking and rather small, despite having a very nice sea view. There was no door to the bathroom so at night the room wasn’t dark enough for me to have a restful sleep. There was no proper blackout curtain installed, but the bed was very comfortable. The room wasn’t soundproofed, so one could hear noises/voices from the adjacent rooms. The restaurant serves good food in the evening and you have to book a table beforehand. The full English breakfast was ok, nothing exceptional. The staff could be a bit more welcoming and friendly. The hotel has a lovely and very pleasant lounge where you can relax and watch the sea view.

"We loved everything about the place except for the road leading to the hotel. The location, views, and overall ambiance of the place are unique and unforgettable. There are plenty of walks to choose from, and the rooms are comfortable and modern. However, the road on the other side is just one lane with no shoulders, as vegetation encroaches onto it, and visibility on both sides is zero. While this may be normal for locals, it can be very stressful for tourists who are not accustomed to driving on the left side."

we liked everything.

The location is fantastic, right on the cliff above the beach and dramatic rocks. Breakfast was very good, tasty, well cooked and arrived on time. The room was quiet despite the high winds.

I arrived late around 9pm and missed the food, it would have been a long drive back to somewhere open at that time of night, but I had phoned ahead so ate on the journey there.

The secluded location means that the only thing there is the hotel so you will definitely want to be eating there. Food is good and not pretentious. Breakfast was equally fulfilling. Due to the distance from Clovelly and Bude, it is likely to be a necessary stop on the SWCP walking

It is a shame that the 'cottages' are built right in from of a bunch of the hotel rooms so there is no sea view from these rooms. Not a problem for us as we would be walking along the coast for days but maybe for some it would be important.
