Amazing location as close to the beach as you possibly can made it easy to get to key attractions. Also, the hotel was set at a moderate distance from a grand townhouse.
Well, the area was very basic overall.

This property was clean and brilliant. A wide array of options, excellent food. Spotless unit with to personal taste the mattress to soft for wife, spa bath, a windows nailed shut. Wonderful very central location, short walk to Ilfracombe and North Devon, and center of town. Again, not far from a bucolic village.
