Everything! We were given a free upgrade to a lovely suite which had a four poster bed, jacuzzi and dressing area. We had dinner and breakfast which was excellent and reasonably priced and the staff couldn’t have been more helpful.

The Devonian is a hidden gem in Ilfracombe, where charm and comfort meet with grace. From the moment we arrived, we felt not like guests, but warmly welcomed friends. The hosts' kindness and generosity of spirit truly set this place apart—always ready with a smile, a story, and the most thoughtful local insights. Our room was a peaceful haven, filled with quiet elegance, and each morning began with a breakfast that felt like a little celebration—fresh, delicious, and made with care. There’s a gentle magic in this place—one that lingers long after you’ve left. We’re so grateful for the experience and would return in a heartbeat. Thank you Piper & Terence for your warm hospitality. Neda & Mehdi

I loved staying at The Brookfield. The hosts were great and welcoming and the room was bigger than I expected. The bed was very comfortable and the whole atmosphere was really cozy. Breakfast was great and it was served in the sunny lounge. If I am ever back at Braunton I will definitely be staying there again!

Characterful, spacious house with large bedroom. Spotlessly clean with great bathroom and shower. Really enjoyed using the large shared kitchen, dining room and garden. Great location, walking distance to city centre and attractions. Really quiet and relaxing.

Ness and Phil are great hosts, friendly and professional. Rockvale is in a great location, lovely views and easy walking to town for food or sightseeing. Breakfasts were great and nice touch of bottled water and chocolate in room each day. I loved the beauty of the area and my daily walks. Thank you Ness and Phil

Verry friendly staff. After 4pm free parking is possible in the streets around the guest house. City Centre is in walking distance, about 10-20min. Breakfast is cereal, fruits, bred, anything I liked. Room and area is quiet.
