“The hotel struck me as a place of contrasts, where a family-run spirit meets a need for modern updates. Its location offers quick access to Ilfracombe's harbor and beaches, and the views from some rooms are indeed memorable. I think the blend of British and Asian cuisine reflects an interesting history.”
