Local Area

Ilfracombe is the perfect location for North Devon holidays, offering you a gateway to an exciting blend of stunning coastal scenery, seaside fun, rural tranquillity and centuries of heritage and style. We are set in 3 acres of garden and are in a perfect location for both the harbour and the high street.

There are regular boat trips along the north Devon coast, plus fishing trips and cruises to the idyllic Lundy Island. Guests travelling to the island may leave their car in the private car park at the owners risk. We ask for a donation to the RLNI.
