"Stayed the night for my 50th having eaten a few times previously. Once again the food and staff were outstanding- such a great menu and wonderful service. The room (we were in the family room) was exceptionally comfortable and spotless. Lovely comfy beds and amazing balcony with estuary views. Thanks to the whole team!"

★★★ 8.7 (31 reviews)

"Stayed for 3 nights with our puppy and we lived it. The place was spotlessly clean! I wish I had the cleaners. We had a very spacious room overlooking the quay and managed to park right outside. We absolutely loved being within walking distance of all the fab places to eat. Appledore has been our happy place for last 12 years. Highly recommend it."

"We had 4 nights as a family of 4 adults, a baby and a toddler. It was spacious enough for us all and the apartment was bigger than we had imagined which was great. The beds were comfy and the view is incredible. However the cleanliness of the place was not good. The wooden floor was so grubby that within 5 minutes of walking around all our feet were black. We went and spoke to someone about the issue as we had been allowed to check in early (which was great) but we wondered if it hadn’t been finished cleaning and we were handed a mop to do it ourselves. We didn’t mind moping ourselves but obviously not ideal. Even after a mop it wasn’t much better so the next day we mopped again, it must be the grain in the floor or something but we couldn’t get it clean and we all wore socks for the rest of the stay. When checking this place prior to choosing to book we wondered about the smell and noise from the pizza place below; no reviews mentioned it, so we proceeded with booking. However, it is quite smelly and noisy to! As soon as you open up the front door into the stair way there is an overwhelming smell of old cooked/burnt oil, and if you leave your windows open past 5:30 you’ll just get bbq/pizza smell in your bedrooms. A shame as in the summer it’s quite hot on the second floor so it was a choice between smell and noise or a very stuffy room. The noise we kind of expected being above a restaurant but lots of banging doors in the building. So yes a mixed review, and overall we would not stay here again."

The Seagate ★★★
"Recently enjoyed a fabulous three night stay at the Seagate and will certainly be staying again. The room was excellent as was the view ,room had everything you could possibly need from hairdryer,iron and ironing board to a beautiful basket of snacks should you get the midnight munchies. Had a small issue with the shower that was fixed by the time we arrived back from our day out even though we had insisted it was fine for us and they could leave it until we'd checked out great service! Staff were all lovely from housekeeping to front of house,bar staff ect . Special mention to Chris and Tom at checkout."

The Royal George ★★★
"What a gem of a place on the North Devon Coast. Sadly, we could only stay one night as we were en route down the coast heading to Cornwall. We stayed with another couple and booked the two bedroom suite in the main building above the restaurant and it was a delight. Tastefully decorated and nicely furnished, it was perfect for four people. The beds were comfy with nice bed linens and towels, and the balcony terrace jutting out over the estuary waters below is a real plus. It was drizzly for us but in more clement weather you could sit there for hours. Our stay was completed with a lovely breakfast in the restaurant below. The food was great, the staff were lovely and the endless sea views were breathtaking. We’d definitely return if we find ourselves in the area again."

Sailors Rest ★★★
"We stayed at the Sailor’s Rest for 2 nights at the end of August and found it to be good value considering the time of year. We managed to park for free just outside on the road without any trouble. Check in was straightforward – the instructions were clear and we got into the building and collected our key easily from the secure key box. Our room (no. 6) was up in the loft space. It was cosy, clean and nice and quiet. No view from the bedroom itself as it only had skylights, but the bathroom had a lovely sea view. The Nespresso machine and fridge were nice additions. We paid a bit more to have breakfast included, which meant walking down the road to the Royal George. Some previous reviewers seemed to see this as a downside but we actually enjoyed the short stroll each morning, even in the rain one day. Breakfast was absolutely delicious and definitely worth it. Overall, a really comfortable stay and somewhere we’d happily book again if ever in the area."

"Lovely apartment above restaurant but very noisy! Doors slamming, closing restaurant time awful. So much noise. It says apartments are sound proofed…. Couldn’t hear restaurant customers talking, but the clearing up and locking up extremely disruptive at 11.30pm for a least an hour. Could hear everything from flat sbove too. Such a shame as apartment is very nice and the view is stunning."
