The Devonian in Ilfracombe provides adults-only accommodations with a garden, a terrace, and a bar. This guest house features free private parking and bicycle parking.

The breakfast was awesome. The fresh fruit and traditional breakfast were exceptional, and the hosts were so friendly and accommodating. I wish we could have arrived sooner to enjoy the amenities on the property, but unfortunately, we didn't arrive until late. Despite our late arrival, our host greatly us warmly and made us feel welcome.

Channel Vista Guest House is set in Combe Martin, 8.7 mi from Barnstaple. Guests can enjoy the on-site bar. Free private parking is available on site. Rooms include a flat-screen TV.

I liked the fact that the twin beds in our room were positioned to give us each our own space and not side by side which is usually the case in a twin room.

    The hosts were so accommodating. They were friendly and welcoming but upheld their standards of professionalism and integrity the entire visit. The quality of the service was without a doubt, that of a high end boutique bed and breakfast. The choice of decor, cleanliness and even the eggs florentine were fantastic. It is clear from the way the place is cared for that this I passion for these hosts. I would 100% stay here again!

    This was a lovely, genuine bed and breakfast. The hosts had renovated the historic building and live on the property and welcome you. The recent renovation is done in a very tasteful and chic way. The breakfast options provided were fresh and nicely presented. Whilst other properties provide only soap and shampoo, they had thoughtfully chosen toiletries. Bed was very comfortable. Guest house is walking distance to long stay car park (cheap), train station, across the bridge to high street and restaurants.
