Lovely hotel. Welcomed us & our dog. Excellent walking area at the back of the hotel for walking the dog. Had a Sunday roast which was as good as mine! Breakfast was so large, I didn’t have to eat again that day!

The Hoops Inn was great value for money and was ideally located to tour around Northern Devon and Cornwall. The room was clean and felt like it had been recently refurbished. We enjoyed the evening meal and breakfasts. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. We will stay here again and would recommend it - especially for the price!

Very friendly and helpful staff, excellent gardens, delicious menu, good bar. The breakfast only starts at 8 - no good for visiting workers and the walk to the nearby beach is a bit of a nightmare.

We will definitely use this Inn again!

An overnight stay in room 2 which is directly above the bar and alongside the road however we still slept really well. The room was spacious and had a jacuzzi bath✅. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the hotel was too. We had our evening meal there and the food was terrific. There is also a very pretty garden for some afternoon beers. We will definitely be going back.
