What a wonderful stay we have had at The Rising Sun. From a lovely welcome to our departure, we couldn't fault a thing. The staff were all so pleasant and helpful. Our room had everything we could need for a comfortable stay.

Viv on TripAdvisorA modern bathroom in a 14th century hotel
A modern bathroom in a 14th century hotel was definitely not expected. Wi-Fi worked in the room. The staff were friendly and efficient. Breakfast provided a good selection, and the cooked items were really good. Sunday lunch was close to home made with plenty of different vegetables. Will definitely return!

Andrew Giles on TripAdvisorThe best smoked salmon and scrambled eggs I have ever had
We had a lovely stay at The Rising Sun. The staff were wonderful and the food was great. The breakfast was particularly good. The best smoked salmon and scrambled eggs I have ever had. Our room overlooked the harbour with wonderful views of the coast and the town. The room was very comfortable. The hotel is 5 minutes' walk from the funicular which takes you up to Lynton.

All the staff were happy, helpful, and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. Our room had a fantastic view over Lynmouth and sea. Everything was spotlessly clean. Food was delicious, both breakfast and dinner. Friendly, lively atmosphere. We only intended to stay for 2 nights but ended up staying 5.
