Amazing sea view and tasty cocktails. Restaurant service took too long for dinner.

It was just a well-suited match for a quick stop in Ilfracombe with very good value for money. The view was stunning during breakfast on the terrace despite some service issues. Be mindful of the weather as seating can get wet outside.

The stunning sea view from the hotel is breathtaking, making our family getaway memorable. We also had a fantastic time at Ilfracombe Golf Club, where the scenery was just as impressive as the golf. Perfect for a family escape!
In my wife’s opinion, the food options were really lacking.

The staff were friendly and helped me carry my bags up those narrow stairs. The view from my room was stunning, just what I needed after all that chaos.
It wasn't exactly cheap, but for what I got, still acceptable.

The breathtaking views from the room made me feel like royalty, sipping tea on my balcony while watching the sunset paint the sky. The peaceful gardens were a delightful retreat, perfect for leisurely strolls.
More accessible facilities for senior guests would be helpful.

We stayed in a classic double room with sea view. The view was absolutely amazing and definitely the highlight. The room felt comfy with a nice king size bed, but it was a bit stuffy at night since there’s no air conditioning. The furniture seemed a bit cheap and the decor felt tired. we enjoyed the experience but there's room for improvement.

Had a great time with my friends at this hotel! The views were stunning, and we loved hanging out at nearby spots like the golf club and exploring the local area. The staff in the restaurant were friendly and the food was top-notch. Just a heads up , the check-in process could be smoother, as there was a bit of confusion there.

Stunning, stunning, stunning.
The sea view from our room was pure magic, with waves crashing against the cliffs and sunsets that took my breath away. Drinks on the terrace were a vibe! The gourmet dishes served during dining were simply exceptional, especially the locally-sourced seafood that had us raving.

Had a great time with friends! We loved the stunning views and the friendly staff at the restaurant. We visited the local golf club for some fun and spent a day exploring the beautiful seaside. it was a fantastic getaway.
it wasn't clear that we'd be staying in a different building from where we thought we'd be.

Exceptional dining experience and breathtaking views.
I had to change rooms twice during my stay, which was extremely frustrating. The last room was cramped and stuffy, making it hard to relax. I felt that the hotel should have considered offering a refund for the night I couldn't stay due to the inconvenience of the room changes.
