The 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.
Lyn on TripAdvisorLovely hotel and restaurant!
This is the second time we have stopped at the Rising Sun within a year and both stays have been perfect! The staff are very helpful and provide a superb service. We would highly recommend staying here and having a meal in the outstanding restaurant! We have stayed in two different rooms and both have been lovely with beautiful sea views. We will be returning very soon!
Joshua 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.

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.
