"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 Collingdale Guest House

8/10 Good

"A traditional B&B in a Victorian terrace, with clean, spacious, comfortable rooms. There are a lot of stairs and it’s uphill from the town so not suitable if you have mobility difficulties. Breakfast had lots of choice, with good vegan options too. We recommend taking up the option of paying for their private parking as there was never any space on the street."
