Had a very comfortable 2 night stay. Nick and Melanie made us feel welcome - and the cake that was left in the room for us was yummy! Great choice of food for breakfast, which was prepared to an order which was placed the previous evening.

Lovely stay at Longmead

We had an excellent stay. Nick greeted us on arrival. Everything that we needed was in our room and Nick was on hand to give recommendations for the area. The stunning Valley of Rocks was pretty much on the doorstep and the shops and restaurants were stone throw away. The cooked breakfast was lovely and it was a nice touch that we had a card and chocolates on our table as it was Easter Sunday.

We had a very pleasant stay. Friendly - welcoming - very clean. Breakfasts were fab. Salt shaker needed rice in it to dry out the crystals - that was really the only thing we could pick at, so I would say - thoroughly recommended.

First class stay

My wife and I spent last week visiting beautiful North Devon. Our stay was made particularly special by the excellent accommodation at Longmead. Melanie and Nick could not have done anymore to make us feel comfortable - the small touches like home-made jams and bread at breakfast and fresh milk for tea and coffee in the rooms were especially appreciated. Longmead is only 5 minutes walk from Lynton town centre in one direction and Valley of Rocks in the other. Will definitely stay there again next time we visit. .

A fantastic B&B in a great location. The welcome on arrival was warm and thorough, a good selection of tea and biscuits in the room with a complimentary slice of cake. The room was well thought out and attention is paid to detail. A well stocked bar. The breakfast was fantastic, can't stress this enough, cooked breakfast and an excellent granola each morning. And the local knowledge and recommendations for the area were perfect. Nick and Mel, we can't fault and will highly recommend! Thank you

Enjoyable 6 nights stay in Longmead House B&B. Owners Melanie and Nick were welcoming, knowledgable and very helpful in unexpected ways like, on hearing I'd dropped my mobile phone on the street on my way there, they checked their local Facebook news page where there was a photo of a mobile found and a notice saying it had been handed to Lynton's Town Hall for self care. Much appreciated.

I upgraded to a superior room £190 for two nights.. On arrival we were shown to our room which was A tiny room with just enough room to walk around the outside of the bed with a sink in the bedroom🤔The ensuite was if you sat on the toilet you would fall in the bath. I did question this with the owners and they said it was a king size bed, but all we were getting was a king size bed and a double bedroom. We were also asked if we could pack up all the dirty towels and strip Our beds

We stayed at Longmead for 3 nights. Our room was comfortable, spacious and clean. Tea, coffee making facilities were available in the room, as well as water for each guest. Breakfast choices were taken each evening from a substantial menu. The location was in Lynton, which is up a very steep hill from Lynmouth. (Cable train available for uphill if necessary!) Great views and good for walkers. Some spectacular walks around the area. Nick and Melenie were good hosts and helpful with local information for great walks.
