The hotel is in an excellent position near the town centre but with an easy to access large car park. The staff are unassuming and helpful. We ate in the restaurant and the food and wines were excellent. The bedrooms were warm and comfortable with attractive traditional furnishings and immaculate en suites. The style is old empire and charming.

As ever, excellent experience from Barnstaple’s best hotel. Only request - please make sure that the new EV charging spaces are free for EVs rather than allowing anyone to park in the space. Most frustrating when you need to charge your car…

Sound Proofing
Nice hotel but needs to take a serious look into sound proofing. The guy in the room next to me was on the phone and I could hear his conversation word for word. He may aswell made the call in my room. apart from that it was a nice stay.
