"Have known this hotel for a number of years and it was one of the best in the area but now needing a facelift without spoiling its design.

Top South West Coast Path Section 5 Trailhead Hotel Reviews

The Royal George

10/10 Excellent

"Enjoyable stay at what is perhaps best described as a fantastic restaurant with rooms. The restaurant overlooks the water and both dinner and breakfast were excellent. However our room was landside, with only a view of Irsha Street. Although small, the room and facilities were excellent. Fresh milk in the fridge is always much appreciated by us tea drinkers."

Durrant House Hotel

8/10 Good

"Staff very helpful and friendly. Good service. Hotel dated but overall stay was good."

Instow Barton

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent homecooked breakfast with lots of choice. Easy off road parking. Spacious, quiet airy rooms. Very friendly and helpful hosts. 10 minute walk to the beach and restaurants/pubs."

Appledore Factory

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic location and a lovely flat. The skylights make it feel really light and airy, with fantastic sea views. It was exactly what we needed for our mini break in Devon. We also had a meal at their restaurant downstairs, the Flame Factory, which was wonderful. The staff were absolutely fantastic and so warm and welcoming. Would definitely recommend!"

The Wayfarer Inn

8/10 Good

"Very nice room with sea view, unfortunately very steep stairs to get there and as suffering mobility issues, not the best, although staff were not aware. Breakfast excellent, and evening meal for 7 highly commented on favourably, hot plates and food. Unfortunately a bout of food poisoning occurred overnight, although the source cannot be confirmed but suspected. Would recommend and stay again. Chair to be placed in room in September after renovations will be a bonus."

Sailors Rest

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely place in Appledore, really well furnished and friendly and helpful staff. Great spot to stay."
