Westbeach Holiday Apartments

8/10 Good

"It was nice that their was a key safe for entry. Able to park outside the door although not guaranteed. Ideal location base for visiting various places. It was clean and tidy with comfortable beds. The kitchen had everything that would be needed. Would definitely stay here again."

Woodford Bridge Country Club

8/10 Good

"1 bed appt, perfect for my needs. Only quibble was sofa. Nice balcony over looking courtyard. Spa facility (pool, jacuzzi, steam room etc) was great, very clean and well run. Its a shame the restaurant wasn't running but as I had an appt with a kitchen it wasn't really a problem. Small shop on site open for 2 hrs each evening, and a temporary bar above the spa. Its a bit in the sticks but only 20 mins drive from Bideford. All the staff were friendly and helpful."

The Barnstaple Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We received a warm and friendly welcome on arrival. The shower was amazing and after walking a big section of the SWCP it was very welcomed. Sadly we ran out of puff to enjoy the pool (indoor and outside). The ability to park and leave vehicles there was an added benefit. The bar menu offered great choices, and the breakfast was a pleasant treat. I would deffo recommend and be more than happy to return next time I am in the area."

The Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"My husband and I had a lovely stay for our anniversary. Hotel was clean, staff friendly and food delicious. Looking forward to staying again."

The Imperial Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was excellent. It felt very upmarket but without an upmarket price. Room was small but absolutely fine for one person. Wonderful bathroom! Food was excellent. Will be going back next year."

The Royal George

8/10 Good

"Comfortable bed. Nice room. Espresso machine in room - excellent. Blinds were a bit broken and not blackout. Single glazing which was mostly ok at this time of year but anyone or vehicle who did go past definitely disturbed our sleep. Bath towels were small, not bath sheets. Lovely friendly staff. Good vibe. Chilled. No parking which we didnt realise until we got there. Would be useful to have that flagged before travelling so you can go straight to one of the public car parks."

The Bath Hotel Lynmouth

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic hotel in the heart of the river mouth. Staff extremely friendly and very helpful."

Watersmeet Hotel

8/10 Good

"This hotel is in a fantastic location with beautiful walks along the shore. The hotel is clean, sophisticated and comfortable. The staff were almost all very friendly, kind and helpful. The food was very nice - excellent breakfasts especially. The only downsides are that the pool is freezing. Also information on the room specification was misleading ‘shower/bathtub combination’ logically made me think we would have a bathtub with a shower over the top. As a part of an expensive seaview room, I really wanted a bath and the information given made me believe this is what we would have instead of the shower which I found in our room. Otherwise I would not have booked that room. I was told on arrival by the hotel manager that I should have made a special request for this before arriving (which made it seem like this was my fault). She told me that there was nothing she could do about it because they were fully booked and that next time, I needed to request this to avoid being disappointed. No other attempts to make up for this or to at least accept that the information given had been misleading were made. The rest of the kind and welcoming staff and our stay there made up for this rude and unkind interaction and we had a nice time but this did taint the trip for us and better customer service could have avoided us feeling disappointed and told off."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Shirwell?

The main road through the village, Shirwell Road, connects it to larger towns, making it easy to explore the wider area.Couples looking for a quiet retreat will appreciate staying directly in Shirwell village. It offers a chance to unwind, enjoy leisurely walks through the rolling hills, and experience the slow pace of village life.
