Decorated with taste in a classic style that embraces the age of the Inn
Lovely room overlooking the harbour, accessed from a flight of twisty stairs and a delightfully wonky corridor with original panelling and low, not for me, beams. Our room was decorated with taste in a classic style to embrace the age of the Inn without feeling like your Aunty Edna's house. Great to perch on the window seat and look out to sea with the thatch overhead. Fab breakfast, nicely presented by chefs who understand allergies; mine was strictly gluten-free. Don't be alarmed by the traditional pubby feel when you arrive; this isn't the experience you have as a guest, and despite being one floor up and directly over the front door and outdoor seating, there was no late-night noise to keep us awake at all. Lovely, friendly staff. We would definitely stay here again.
Rachael on TripAdvisorA very warm welcome and perfect harbour views
Lovely stay. We received a very warm welcome. The room was beautiful and very modern and stylish. Views from the room out to sea and overlooking the harbour were perfect. Evening meal was delicious and at breakfast there was a large choice of hot and cold foods.

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!!
Jesus on Booking.comExcellent from beginning to end
Excellent from beginning to end. Staff were so very helpful, and nothing seemed to be too much trouble. The location was just what anyone could wish for, and the sea views were spectacular especially from the Cottage (which we had). We will certainly return.
