This hotel has just reopened. Although the decor is spartan in a few places, the common areas and rooms are freshly painted and comfortable. Everything is spotlessly clean. The food is excellent and the staff are some of the best we have experienced. I would highly recommend this hotel for a great value break.

We were only 1 nigth there but it was an unique stay. Terence and Piper are really friendly and helpful hosts. From the first step into this house we felt like "coming home". The room was amazing - so lovingly decorated... and the best shower gel i've ever had 🤣... Never before we've seen a "home cinema" - every Monday at 7 pm the guests can watch a film in a small cinema area with original seats. Also breakfast was top - we didn't miss anything. If we come back to the southwest of uk we will surely make a longer stay in this beautiful house!

The Varley House is a little outside of town in a quiet neighborhood. Rod is an attentive host and has an outstanding service from the arrival to special requests, as I wanted to send extra luggage home. The shower was grand, the room is spotless and inviting. I'd definitely stay there again and can warmly recommend.

Ilfracombe is a lovely part of the Devon coast with great scenery and walks to be had. Ilfracombe itself as a town is very run down and not particularly a destination in itself, but a good base for exploring the area.

So many shops are boarded up or empty - a real shame.

So many shops are boarded up or empty - a real shame. The high street is particularly bad. The beach isn't really a beach - it's a very small cove with black sand and with huge jagged rocks poking out of it. Fine for dog walkers but not for a family with little children. Love it or hate it - the Damien Hirst statue at the harbour is worth a look. The museum is a lot more interesting than I anticipated. We ate in a Mediterranean restaurant called Levain - great food and lovely atmosphere - would highly recommend.

llfracombe is amazing for the picturesque walks and views, and watching the sunset. They can be quite hilly, but there are plenty of benches to rest on. Our favourite place to eat is the Admiral Collingwood Wetherspoons Pub, prices are good and it is ideally situated. Also the ice cream parlours are lovely. There is crazy golf, and a nice nature reserve to visit with a small waterfall we found.

Ilfracombe is a lovely seaside town. We went for a festival and it was very exciting to be there because of it. It's a lovely town to walk about in. Would have liked to have spent more time to explore the place further.

Our trip was too short to be able to explore Ilfracombe fully as we spent time at our family wedding at the Tunnel Beaches and made the best of our time together for those few days we had. The Carlton Hotel location was practically on its doorstep and easy on the feet for wearing heels as only a few yards away and you're there. Maddys chippy was fantastic for one of our evenings out. We had fresh plaice and chips and cannot remark highly enough on the portion sizes and the crispiness of the batter on the fish. Although slightly expensive it was well worth the cost as the service was impeccable. Nice also having a glass of wine with our meal. I also stopped to talk with a lovely lady called Jane Perrin at her art studio. It was lovely to watch her taking a class and later in the evening when passing by her closed shop, she kindly came to speak to me when I beckoned her to enquire about her school. She takes classes where she provides the canvas paint and easel during which she can help you make the best of what you may want to paint. I wasnt aware of her studio until I passed by on my last evening there but it certainly would be something I would partake on my next visit and would prebook before arriving. It was really lovely that she took the time to come out and speak to me and tell me about her life coming full circle as she used to be an art teacher. What a pleasure it must be to have a job later in life doing what one enjoys. Ilfracombe itself is very picturesque. Lots of interesting shops to see and it can take you down memory lane as you see the old style of Victorian architecture like something out of a history book. I can understand why people would revisit this town. It's great for a good hilly walk and the views at the hilltops take in a beautiful horizon of the landscape/sea in the evenings. Take a good pair of trainers as you'll enjoy it more with comfortable footwear.

Ilfracombe was lovely for a short family trip.

Ilfracombe was lovely for a short family trip. It has landmarks to visit, walks to go on, arcades, beaches, a strip of shops, restaurants parks, souvenirs and ice creams. The people she came across were friendly and the place seemed clean. A short drive away from a steam train, a big sandy beach and an amusement park/castle. Lots to do to keep the kids entertained. There are lots to do if you are not travelling with kids too.

Right from start to finish our visit to the Carleton Hotel was a fantastic experience. Michael is a great host and made us very welcome. All the staff we met couldn't do enough for us and nothing was too much trouble. The hotel is spotless in every area. Our room was beautiful and again spotless. It was exceptionally equipped with high quality toiletries and a safe that could hold a full size laptop. Location is fantastic as it is close to all the amenities and attractions in Ilfracombe. We would most definitely go back.

A very well located hotel, close to the harbour. Also appreciated the help I had from the receptionist when I checked in. Found the hotel convenient and the room was fine. Would stay here again if coming to Ilfracombe. Eating choices, good ones, included the Dolphin restaurant, the George and Dragon pub, the Hop nearby and the Indian restaurant in the High Street. Enjoyed visits to Croyde and Woolacombe. Great walk on the Tarka Trail from Instow to Bideford. Only prob being cancellation of trip to Lundy, winds an issue.

Location was great right near the Landmark theatre and town. Parking opposite hotel as well. Staff were very friendly especially allowing us to checkout after the prescribed time so we could grab a shower after coming back from a parkrun at Woolacombe Dunes. This was greatly appreciated as we spent the day around Ilfracombe before a 3 hr journey back home. Nothing was too much trouble. Room size was great with nice sized bed, good size bathroom, towels provided. Free WiFi provided was a nice touch.
