    venue highlights
    poor maintenance
    parking issues

    Large beer garden, proximity to beach, live music events

    Room maintenance could use attention, particularly with minor wear like a broken bath panel!!! Cleanliness in shared areas left much to be desired. Parking situation was frustrating, requiring a trek to find space!!!

    Lovely beachside stay with fantastic staff!

    I had a wonderful experience during my one-night stay, with a spacious, clean room just steps from the beach. The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming, making it feel like home away from home. The breakfast was a delightful treat, with plenty of options including a hearty full English. I would have appreciated a bit more attention to detail in the bathroom cleanliness.

    great location
    tasty breakfast
    broken tv
    mould in bathroom

    got a warm welcome from the friendly staff. the location is amazin, just a few steps from a huge beach perfect for dogs. the bar is great too with locally caught seafood at good prices. breakfast was freshly cooked and delish. really enjoyed our stay here!

    the tv in the second room didn’t work, and the noise from the ventilation system was kinda bothersome. also, the bathroom had some mould which wasn’t cool.

    great spot near beaches and delicious dining options

    I had a lovely time enjoying the nearby North Devon Maritime Museum, which is only a short walk away, and indulging in fantastic food at the Glorious Oyster, just down the lane, making every moment feel vibrant and enjoyable during my stay.

    great location
    spacious room
    good food
    limited parking
    noise from pub

    location was right near the sea, our favorite! couldn't ask for a better sight especially to see a beautiful sunset. good food at breakfast and for our evening meal, without being over expensive. room was spacious and spotlessly clean, with a view over the cottages of the beach/sea. breakfast was lovely, full english.

    parking is very limited and risky, so drop ur luggage first! noise level was a bit high since we were above the pub.

    Absolutely loved the food! The full English breakfast was a dream come true, with perfectly poached eggs and fried bread. Just wish the bathroom had been a little cleaner. 🐾

    Couples looking for a romantic getaway

    The staff? Super friendly, made us feel like we were at home. One night we had some delicious locally caught seafood, it was fresh and reasonable.

    It wasn't exactly cheap, but you know what? It was worth it.

    basic room

    excellent food but basic room amenities

    The food exceeded our expectations, with every dish beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The staff were friendly and attentive, making our dining experience enjoyable each evening.

    The room, while spacious, lacked some modern amenities that would enhance comfort.

    fantastic location
    engaging staff
    narrow hallway
    parking challenge
    dated shower

    Spent a night at Wayfarer Inn recently. The room was clean and spacious with a decent view of the surrounding area. Breakfast options were flexible, catering well to our schedule. The location next to the beach was fantastic, perfect for a sunset stroll. Staff were friendly and engaging, eager to help with our needs. our room's shower could use an upgrade. it felt cramped and lacked space for toiletries. Parking posed a challenge. we had to park quite far and carry luggage a good distance. The hallway was narrow, which made it tricky to navigate with suitcases. I appreciated the friendly atmosphere and cleanliness but think some updates to facilities would enhance the experience.
