"I would love to keep this gem of a find a secret but that wouldn’t be fair to them!! Sharon and Daryl are so welcoming we felt we had known them for many years, great knowledge and ideas where to go as we hadn’t been to Ilfracombe before. The room spotless with the most comfortable super Kingsize bed and the bathroom amenities were so gorgeous I’ve googled where to source! Where do I start with the breakfast it’s obviously locally sourced as it was absolutely delicious!!! Sharon and Susan give you a super morning greeting and nothing is too much trouble… coffee yummy too!! Can’t wait to return as said by the other guests we met at breakfast!!"

8/10 Good
"I originally stayed at this B&B about 20 years ago while walking the coastal path, & decided to return as the village was in an ideal place for our touring holiday. The steep driveway & smallish space made for tricky parking with a large car, but doable. Our room was clean & comfortable, if a little dated in style. The owners were welcoming & helpful. Breakfast the next morning set us up for the day. We had a meal in the pub near the beach, & took a stroll around the village."
