Very warmly staffed. Shower was good, always a win. Friendly open communal areas that worked well. Perfectly located for hubby who was diving. Felt safe for our teenage boys growing independence.10pm noise curfew was followed by all, much appreciated . It Reminded hubby and I of a place we stayed in Australia, one world backpackersin Perth. Exactly what we had expected.
Set in Ilfracombe, near Wildersmouth beach, Ilfracombe and Watermouth Castle, Sandpiper Inn B&B and Pub has a bar. This beachfront property offers access to bowling in the bowling alley and free WiFi....

Staff were welcoming however site very understaffed with waits of half an hour to get our keys. Beds were comfortable which was a blessing as we spent most of the night awake due to the noise
We enjoyed exploring Ilfracombe and the surrounding area.
We enjoyed exploring Ilfracombe and the surrounding area. We had good weather and walked some of the cliff path, as well as around the harbour area.
We had a look at Verity and went up to the little hilltop chapel.
We found good restaurants and a couple of pleasant pubs as well as a cafe for breakfast 😋
It was warm enough to have a swim at the Tunnels beach!
We got special toasties from the deli. en route to the harbour and found a seat with a view to eat them!

Great fish and chip and ice cream shop. Lovely walk up to the hill with fabulous views.
Sadly, lots of shops closed or closed early. Need more interesting shops in the high st. The Nest, florist, chocolate emporium were definitely the best.

Ilfracombe is a lovely place to visit, however please be aware how hilly it is. Walking down to harbour is easy but the return journey can be a bit of a slog.
Had gluten free fish and chips from Lynbay fish and chip shop.
Gluten free cream tea from St James tea garden.
Wasn't overly impressed with the beach as it mainly slate pebbles, but Woolacombe is not far away with golden sands.

Many part of this town including its HIGH STREET are looking terribly run down and rough. So too some pubs ...
I'm sure it will perk up in higher season but money needs to be spent on its appearance .
The streets felt as safe as most places in Britain and some Bistros and cafes were delightful. Roads are narrow and some extremely vertiginous . Parking can be an issue in high season I guess.

Ilfracombe is worth a visit and is probably better in the summer than when we visited. We preferred Woolacombe and Puttsborough beach is great for surfing. We walked around Baggy Point and saw some amazing views. Well worth a visit.

There were some really lovely parts of Ilfracombe and some not so nice , like most towns . Most of the architecture is stunning with old and new together but some new don't fit in. The scenery on the coast is amazing with lots of craggy coves and you can walk along the South West Coast Path . There is a small harbour where a stunning Damien Hirst statue is of Verity ,Statue of Justice if I remember correctly Parts of Ilfracombe are quite steep but there are slopes and some roads on the flat. We ate Sunday lunch at the Thatched Inn , had Breakfast at the Lime Kiln Cafe down by a cove . We loved it.
Cairn House is perfectly situated for exploring North Devon. The room we stayed in was great - large, clean and comfy and the hosts
Nick and Margaret were super friendly and welcoming. The Honesty Bar is a fab idea, we enjoyed a couple of drinks on the picnic bench in the front garden. The breakfasts were lovely, plenty of choice and were served really quick, meaning we could make an early start and the most of our days. We had a fab time in Ilfracombe and wouldn't hesitate in rebooking to stay at Cairn House.
Everything! If I could give this hotel an 11 or 12 I would. It's truly exceptional. Run by a warm and engaging couple who deliver an outstanding service despite it being just the two of them. The breakfasts were wonderful and the place is immaculate. Great attention to detail with everything thought through. We loved Ilfracombe for its accessibility to the south coast trail, and the walk to Woolacombe is truly stunning! I would highly recommend this hotel, especially for keen walkers.
The room had a great view of the sea and harbour area. The hosts were so welcoming and Sharon suggested lots of good places to eat and visit during the stay. Breakfast is fabulous. Lovely lounge for guest use. Only about 10 minutes to walk into town down a path most of which is away from traffic. Take the Ilfracombe Princess trips - got to see the seals and porpoises! Had great weather and wonderful stay.
The location was convenient, the room was decorated beautifully with a lovely view. It was spotless and comfortable. The breakfast was delicious. The service from Piper and Terence was second to none. They were extremely helpful and very friendly. Would 100% recommend The Devonian to anyone travelling to the area.
We ( a family of seven) have just had a wonderful three nights at Slipway. It is perfectly located to explore Ilfracombe and the wider sights of North Devon. The house is very spacious and very well equipped. The host was easy to communicate with and gave us great advice regarding where we could park etc.
The hotel was selected as it needed to be near where my friends were staying. It was an ideal location within easy walking distance of all parts of the town. Unless venturing further afield there is no need for the car to move while staying in Ilfracombe with everything pretty much on the doorstep.
Lovely top floor apartment ...great views over Ilfracombe. Clean and spacious. Comfy beds too, Lots of contact with host prior and during stay very helpful. We did not meet host but was given lots of useful info and was immediately contactable when we got confused over which apartment we had!
All staff/owners were exceptionally friendly and accommodating. we were made to feel very welcome and we would definitely stay at the Harcourt again and have already recommended it to a friend.
The breakfast was excellent as was the bar service!
Thank you everyone at The Harcourt Hotel.
Beautiful, big and comfortable room in a lovely building, with staff offering a very friendly and efficient service. I feel it's the kind of place you could stay in for longer, as it's not cramped and situated in a nice part of Ilfracombe. I'm definitely recommending it to friends.
Hotel was very clean, tastefully decorated and staff very friendly and efficient.
Booked b&b however of our 4 nights stay ate "in" on two nights as the food was so good.
Five minutes walk from High Street and main places of interest in Ilfracombe so good location.
Really nice place , hosts are helpful and friendly , lovely well kept and organized place to stay . Breakfasts are very nice , rooms are large and really nice . Had a great week here . Bus stop at end of driveway to ilfracombe , woolacombe , Barnstaple .
Very pleasant staff and clean and comfortable apartment with sea view as requested. Also did a surprise raffle upon check in! Very good base for exploring North Devon! Lots of car park spaces. Will definitely come back.
Beautiful location😍, nice and quiet, next to the harbour. Heated pool was lovely ☺️ very friendly staff especially the man that show us to our caravan and told us everything we needed to know about the park.
The room and the Hotel was very clean, bed was comfy and seating area, good views from the windows excellent shower and wash room, good size TV. Would use again when I return to Ilfracombe.
Location was 5 to 10 min walk from harbour/town. Bed was huge and very comfortable. Clean hotel and the hospitality was 5 star. Breakfast was tasty. Really enjoyed our stay at the Norbury.
The Hotel was right on the harbour in the middle of Ilfracombe. The staff were friendly and although q basic menu the food was fine and not expensive. The drinks prices were also fair.
Hotel is situated in a quiet backstreet but close to all ammenities. Lovely sea-view from the room we were in. Staff and in particular the owner were very friendly and helpful.
