A great historic hotel next to the pier
A great historic hotel next to the pier, it was a great experience. The food was very good, the staff very friendly, and the room was in very good condition and clean. Great place to stay if you're travelling to Lynmouth! The pub is spectacular too! I highly recommend visiting/staying at this place!!

The place is magical. Located at the foot of the sea and the port, the hotel is in a magnificent location. The staff are very welcoming and pleasant.
Christopher on Booking.comWe've always dreamed of staying here and it didn't disappoint
We normally camp but this year we chose the Rising Sun for our Easter Break. Perfectly located with wonderful sea views from our room. This chocolate box inn is superbly cosy yet with more than a hint of piracy. In fact, climbing the stairs to our room and navigating the tilting hallway put me in mind of old galleons. Our room was nicely furnished with a good en-suite shower room and a cute window seat. The room was small but clean. It must be hard to clean all the nooks and crannies of such an ancient building but think they nailed it. Definitely due for some redecoration though as many scuffs and dents on the walls. The carpet on stairs and landing needs taking away and left as wood in my opinion. We had a fabulous meal there on our first night and the breakfasts were great too. We've always dreamed of staying here and it didn't disappoint.
