The location is perfect and as my husband is partially disabled, the car parking is really important. We love the views, and sounds of the river and sea.

Long weekend break, Lynemouth.

Excellent break, on our first stay. Manager very attentive and service oriented. Top location and would recommend for a short stay. Food very reasonably priced with a good menu. Some of the reviews moan about the restaurant being closed on a Monday/Tuesday, but full dining facilities available at their sister hotel, The Rising Sun a mere 100yds away, so not a problem. Good beer garden by the sea.

Nice place with convenient access straight over the bridge to the quayside. Miserable weather on the day we arrived but walked right into the Lynmouth Maritime regatta. Fun all day long. Staff in the hotel were all friendly and helpful. Lovely breakfast. Would stay again.
