"Great location having Woolacombe and Ilfracombe 10 minutes either side. Nice small park, with a shop and pub serving food and drinks. Kids play park and jumbo chess went down well. The Lodge itself is nice, the hot tub being a welcomed luxury after long days exploring. As many have said, the decking/railing needs replacing as its patched up in places and worn. Otherwise, its a lovely place, clean, very usable spaces and well equipped. We loved it!"

Top Hele Bay Beach Hotel Reviews

The Rocky Cove Bed & Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"It was well appointed and very comfortable and had everything we needed. Jonah was extremely helpful and gave us lots of information about potential parking places as the B&B does not itself have a car park. We only stayed one night and were fortunate enough to secure one of the parking places immediately in front of the B&B for which there was no charge until 10am the next morning. All very satisfactory."
