Sea view from every window
Travelled with my husband and my parents and stayed at The Rising Sun for one night. We had paid a little extra to get good rooms, but we never expected the quality of the rooms given to us. Big, airy, and cool with a direct entrance out to the sea. Sea view from every window and extremely clean. The breakfast was perfect with everything we needed, and it was served inside the charming old pub. We could not fault it!
Emilie on TripAdvisorThe best ploughman’s I’ve ever had!
We were staying at Lynton and got the delightful cliff railway down to Lynmouth, we stopped here for a quick drink but on looking at the menu, we decided to stay for lunch. The best ploughman’s I’ve ever had, everything was homemade. Hubby had crab sandwiches, thick, chunky bread and utterly delicious. We highly recommend eating here, the food is amazing. The setting of the pub is in a beautiful location, right beside the sea, very traditional inside, just my favourite type of pub.

Absolutely fantastic experience. Excellent food, super friendly staff who couldn't be nicer or more professional, great choice of ales and wine. And did I mention the food. Just "Wow!" difficult to fault. Doggie friendly in the bar as well. Will most definitely be returning. Highly recommended.
