    Clean hotel with comfortable and ideal location in Ilfracombe close enough to the harbour and restaurants, a quiet hill and perhaps should really be evaluated as a restaurant with rooms. Amazing food, very good service. Tastefully decorated and well-appointed room and incredible view over rooftops to sea. The staff - very helpful and knowledgeable.
