The location is perfect and as my husband is partially disabled, the car parking is really important. We love the views, and sounds of the river and sea.

The view from our bedroom window overlooking the Lynn River to the bustling streets of Lynmouth with behind the hanging woods on the hills above was enchanting. The staff were very friendly and the full English breakfast excellent, highly recommended.

Nice hotel with great views

Great hotel for exploring the coast. Room overlooked the river and the sea. The river is noisy from the water tumbling over the rocks which added to the charm and actually helped us sleep well! Breakfast and dinner are I the pub opposite over a footbridge. Would definitely stay again.

Nice place with convenient access straight over the bridge to the quayside. Miserable weather on the day we arrived but walked right into the Lynmouth Maritime regatta. Fun all day long. Staff in the hotel were all friendly and helpful. Lovely breakfast. Would stay again.

Long weekend break, Lynemouth.

Excellent break, on our first stay. Manager very attentive and service oriented. Top location and would recommend for a short stay. Food very reasonably priced with a good menu. Some of the reviews moan about the restaurant being closed on a Monday/Tuesday, but full dining facilities available at their sister hotel, The Rising Sun a mere 100yds away, so not a problem. Good beer garden by the sea.

The room was well equipped and very clean. The Hotel was not fully open for the season and Breakfast was provided by the ‘Rising Sun’ ( sister inn). Which we were unaware of prior to arrival.

We came during winter and had the place all to ourselves. The hotel facilities were closed and we had to check in and have breakfast at the hotel across the road. However it was totally worth it. The room was beautifully decorated with views from every window. Heating was fantastic, firm mattress, brand new renovated bathroom, and the best cookies. The town is across a small bridge and was so picturesque.

We have stayed in this hotel a couple of times before, first being over 30 years ago. They are having work done, but this did not affect us at all. The sea views we booked were as we expected. Service was good and the staff were friendly and helpful. It’s right in the heart of Lynmouth and has some great walks nearby. We didn’t use the car at all whilst we were there. Would definitely go again, we had a lovely weekend
