“All of the staff we came into contact with were friendly and helpful. We ate at the pub and the food was good sized portions and of a good quality. The breakfast was particularly good!
The room was quirky and of a good size.

“Nice little one night stopover visiting Bude.
Ample parking and easy to find. Straight road into Bude. A little isolated so make sure you buy supplies from Bude on the way back.

Paula the host was very helpful and friendly start to finish. Will stay again if we visit Bude again.”

The place was immaculate, hosts are extremely friendly and everything about the trip was perfect and as described. We will certainly be returning.”
“Have known this hotel for a number of years and it was one of the best in the area but now needing a facelift without spoiling its design. Lift inside needs upgrading, fixtures and fittings need upgrading. STAFF were lovely especially Carol in the lounge area, very kind and helpful. Pool and garden area lovely. Parking good but limited spaces. Receptionists friendly and helpful. Hotel is well situated for Bideford T
own and links to Westward Ho!, Barnstable, Instow and surrounding areas. Would...
“Excellent property; very clean and tidy. Very well laid out, with lovely outside area. Just great in all aspects. Location was just a short walk from the beach. Highly recommend.”
