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.

Philip

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The lounge, bistro and restaurant were lovely. Staff were excellent. The food was extremely good. The bedroom was okay, but the decor looked a bit tired. For a four star hotel the the facilities in the room were limited. No spare toilet roll, no shaving mirror and the room itself was a little small. The toilet did not flush that well and the hot water/heating pipes were noisy.

Lovely hotel
Great little hotel, nestled by the river in Barnstaple. Staff were fab and couldn’t do enough for you. Had a very homely feel and was very cosy. Food awesome! Rooms clean and tidy but no air con so had to have the window open then was woken by bin men at 7am. Certainly not the hotels fault! Overall, very much looking forward to staying there again…
