14th-century harbourside inn on Lynmouth Bay

Location & Historic Character

Overlooking Lynmouth Bay and the harbour, the hotel sits on the edge of Exmoor National Park. The building is a 14th-century thatched inn set in former fishermen's cottages with crooked staircases and low beams. Guests have direct access to the South West Coastal Path and the Valley of Rocks is one mile away.

Dining

The candlelit, oak-panelled restaurant serves classic British cuisine with fresh local game and Lynmouth lobster. The menu focuses on seasonal local produce, with day boat fish from the nearby coast. An on-site bar offers real ales and hearty cooked breakfasts.

Accommodations

Each of the 17 guest rooms has individual character and original beams and uneven floors. Many rooms offer sea views and ensuite bathrooms, with some featuring a stand-alone bath. The rooms are furnished with taste to embrace the age of the inn.

Wellness & Outdoor Activities

The hotel has an on-site sauna open to guests and the public. Outdoor activities include canoeing and kayaking nearby, plus cliff-top walks offering panoramic views. Exmoor Zoo is 10 miles away and the famous Valley of Rocks has a herd of wild goats.
