"Great location having Woolacombe and Ilfracombe 10 minutes either side. Nice small park, with a shop and pub serving food and drinks. Kids play park and jumbo chess went down well. The Lodge itself is nice, the hot tub being a welcomed luxury after long days exploring. As many have said, the decking/railing needs replacing as its patched up in places and worn. Otherwise, its a lovely place, clean, very usable spaces and well equipped. We loved it!"

"Great room with lovely seating area in the middle of Ilfracombe. Carparking handy and cheap. Lots to do and see. Just one problem with the gutter outside the room leaking with heavy rain and very noisy. A part from that, perfect, with Woolacombe bay surfing just 15mins down the road."

Avoncourt Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Great very reasonably priced stay at Avoncourt. Came down to Ilfracombe for a few days with an early trip to Lundy planned for one of the days. Helpful staff arranged for us to be able to have a light breakfast before we left. The second day we weren’t in as much of a rush and had an amazing breakfast of shakshuka - fantastic before a long hike on the south west coast path. Would recommend."
