Perfect location just a short stroll to the beach, also a lovely rural setting giving both a seaside and countryside feel. The property offers ample parking. Our hosts were attentive and professional, they gave much thought to making our stay a home from home. The whole property was clean and comfortable and breakfast was first class, cooked to perfection and with a very generous selection . We especially appreciated the home cooked cake waiting for us in our room every afternoon when we arrived back, and the flask of fresh milk by reception every evening for our morning coffee.

An absolutely perfect stay for us in stunning Instow Barton. Our room was beautifully furnished, spacious, comfortable and super clean and the location was great for us - being rural but only an 8 to 10 minute easy walk to the beach/waterfront and wonderful Boathouse and Instow Arms pubs. Caroline and Colin were the most amazing of hosts - friendly, attentive and it was obvious they took well-deserved pride in what they do. The breakfast was first rate and plentiful with a focus on local and home made produce. Delicious!. Slices of homemade cake in our room after returning from hiking was a very nice touch and very much enjoyed!. All in all, you'd be hard pressed to find a better place to stay in North Devon. Well done and a big thank you to Caroline and Colin. It's a 11 out of 10 from us!

Nothing. These guys really know how to run a B'n'B!!

A warm welcome from Caroline set the tone. The house was delightful, light and bright in a beautiful peaceful location, yet only 10 minutes walk to restaurants in Instow. Colin's breakfasts, from creamy porridge with maple syrup to the full English were among the best we've had on our travels. Cake every day and fresh milk in the bedroom after a hard day's enjoyment, was the icing on the cake!! Thoroughly recommend.

I don't want to nit pick after a lovely stay, but the TV could have been larger, old eyes don't see so well, and I didn't like the coffee bags. The smell as you opened them was full of coffee promise, but they didn't deliver flavour for me. Breakfast coffee though was great.

A lovely 4 night stay in spacious, light rooms with excellent views of the surrounding countryside and sea. The breakfast was plentiful and exceptional with plenty of options. There was plenty of off road parking and the location made it easy to travel to everywhere we visited. The staff were friendly, welcoming, polite and always helpful. The cake left in our rooms every afternoon was a nice touch too. Highly recommended!

We had a really warm welcome & were delighted with our large and pretty room with cake & fresh milk on the hostess tray.. Our breakfast was delicious with fresh fruit, yoghurt, granola & fruit juice waiting on our table. Our bed was huge & comfortable: the room was very quiet and overlooked the Grade 1 listed church. We took our cycles with us and were able to keep them locked in a garage. All in all, a lovely property.

The location is tranquil and within a short distance to the beach by car. The owner that I met was very friendly approachable and made us feel at home. Breakfast was amazing , we had the smoked salmon and scrambled eggs. But most of all the bed was so comfortable it was like sleeping and a cloud. Will return !!!

We stayed here whilst walking a section of the South West Coast Path - and it might have been our favourite place to stay during the 5 days. The room was spacious, warm, comfortable, and with beautiful views of the church. The bath was also a dream after hiking in the November weather! Caroline the owner was so lovely to chat to and made us feel so welcome (especially with cake and fresh milk for teas!) The breakfast was also AMAZING! Would highly recommend this place!

Very welcoming, super clean and comfortable and a lovely breakfast! Instow Barton has a lovely quiet location, easily accessible and with good parking facilities. There is a short distance to the beach. Caroline did everything to make sure we had a good stay. We wish we had had more time to explore the area. We loved the relaxed environment at The Glorius Oyster - great music and we had the best king prawns ever. (We thought we could swim from the beach, but this is not recommended... never mind.) We would love to come again..

10 minute walk into Instow. Easy parking. Lovely couple who own it were extremely accommodating. I’d put on our booking that I’m gluten-free. Two gluten-free brownies were put in our room. The room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was fantastic. I’m used to having limited choice, but was told anything could be made for me. The food was abundant, fresh and delicious.

What a treat it was to be able to stay at Inslow Barton in Inslow. We felt welcomed by our hosts the moment we arrived. Our room was very clean, comfortable and spacious for two. The breakfast was cooked with love with lots of choices. The property is about a 10 minute walk to local restaurants, waterfront and the SW Coast Path.
