Barnstaple Hotel Guide - Wedding Hotels in Barnstaple, Devon

This hotel was taken over by new management a few months ago and the new owners bent over backwards to make sure we had a comfortable stay with everything we needed. All the staff were fantastic and were warm and welcoming. Great decor and style throughout and good food and location. Excellent.

B&B basic great base . Great location warm and friendly staff , would stay again and tell friends . Small fishing town lots to see and do

This hotel is a must for anyone who loves being by the sea - the very comfortable and clean room we had booked overlooked the harbour and open sea which lapped a few metres from our windows during the high tide period, it was wonderful going to sleep accompanied by the sound of the waves. Along with the excellent parking, good access to the hotel, a large garden and well stocked bar comes a group of friendly and efficient staff who make your stay run smoothly. Breakfast is plentiful and well cooked. There are seating areas in the large garden which overlook the sea front as well as having reverse views of the towering tree lined cliffs all around. The two villages of Lynmouth and Lynton also have a vast array of places to eat and things to do when you are not being captivated by the views or enjoying the outside elements on the hotels doorstep.

The hotel is being redecorated at the moment and the rooms are looking fresh and tasteful in hues of grey. The restaurant is situated in the large conservatory which can be hot but is a lovely light area with a modern Victorian feel. The food was very good, especially the breakfast selection. The children's menu/meal deal was excellent value. The staff were all very helpful, pleasant and polite. We enjoyed our long weekend there very much and would go back again.

A short stay while attending a family event. Difficult to judge as the new manager took over while we were there but all staff, from cleaners up were welcoming and pleasant. The new food menu looked an improvement but we were not able to taste it. The place was spotlessly clean and conveniently placed for North Devon attractions.

We stayed here for three nights in early Aug 2016. The first impressions were not so good, as the hotel is in need of a bit of refurbishment. But actually, this place is amazingly relaxing and the hotel staff were very helpful indeed. It's quite an eccentric place, having the connection with the Miller's family and absolutely rammed full of antiques. There are lots of nice little touches, such as free toffees everywhere, lovely comfy lounge to sit in and an honesty bar if the staff are unavailable. The main thing, however, is the location. This is a lovely tucked away cove on the coast of Exmoor and we loved waking up to beautiful sea views every day.

An excellent hotel set in the peaceful countryside. Friendly staff in the hotel and restaurant. Close to good walks, beaches and Exmoor.

Very friendly welcoming staff and comfortable large room with lovely view of the small village. Good food, with relaxed eating areas well used by locals. We enjoyed our stay while researching family history.

My wife and I just had two nights in Lavender, the refurbished wagon set towards the rear of the farm. It's lovely, with wood burning stove, comfy pull out bed which was ample for two people (althought I wouldn't want to be 6ft or taller! There is a fire pit outside with supplied logs, which we spent a very pleasant evening next to. All in all, the accommdation was very good - the one quiblle i'd have with the wagon was that the bathroom you have (obviously away from the wagon), was at the back of the restaurant - not ideal if you want an early night or similar but we had no real problems on that front. The real joy of this place, however, are the people - Duncan is truly the host with the most, and couldn't do enough for everyone, i can't praise him enough, but everyone else we dealt with was also top notch. Take a bow guys :) Must also mention the restaurant, as the food was quite sensational. Honestly. Breakfast was magnificent, the steaks we had on the Friday were top notch (as were all the fresh veggies and salad from the farms own organic gardens), so we stayed for Sunday roast as well - never have i had 9 different vegetables with some sparklingly good roast chicken, but i will again. The bar for a roast has been raised. We both loved it, and will definitely return - talking with other guests everyone was of the same opinion. One couple had been 6 times in 18 months! Thanks again, Grant & Sarah

Outside looked dated but inside it is being upgraded and was excellent.
