Where do we start?! I dont think ive ever stayed anywhere so welcoming. The greeting was second to none, Alison came out with a map of ilfracombe and suggested all the best spots and dog friendly areas/restaurants. Nothing was too much trouble. The room was immaculate and we had a balcony overlooking the town and partial sea view (room 6). Breakfast was incredible all fresh and locally sourced. The lady whom serves the breakfast was so lovely, they even provided a bowl of sausages for the dogs breakfast! The location is perfect, directly onto the coastal path across the cliffs. Easy walk into town and the views are stunning. We highly recommend and will be returning next year.

Leaving! :(

The room was amazing with plenty of room for myself and my two dogs. Alison gave us a larger room because I had two dogs with me and it was greatly appreciated. She also bent over backwards to ensure that one of my dogs who is occasionally reactive didn't come face to face with any of the other 5 dogs who happened to be staying that night. Breakfast was delicious and beautifully presented with a choice of cereal or fresh fruit followed by a full English with a vegetarian option (and guests could choose which components they wanted) followed by toast with a selections of jams, honey or marmalade. The dogs treated to a sausage each too! All the staff were so friendly yet professional. The dining room was light and airy and the location is a dream with the Coast walk two minutes away. It was so quiet and all 7 seven dogs were quiet all night!

Absolutely nothing.

Pleasant quiet area of town , situated high on the slope. Ample safe parking and Wi-Fi provided. Although I never had time to use all facilities, it was well equipped with lounge and bar, tv’s, library, and lovely outside garden area for relaxing. The management team of the two ladies were well organised and gave a warm welcome. In room tea/coffee and toiletries excellent. Breakfast was a super full English, cereals, fresh fruit and yoghurt - yummy.

Noise did carry through the room walls by nature of the structure, Fortunately there were no real late noisy guests. Foam pillows not my fave.

There was nothing not to like about the property. Right on the SW coastal path and parking outside. The staff could not be more accommodating or friendly. They made us and our dog very welcome and the dog even got her own cut up sausage at breakfast. The breakfast was fabulous, cooked to order and with a vast array of lovely things. I’d stay again for sure but I’d want a sink in the bathroom.

The room was spotlessly clean but we weren’t entirely comfortable with the only sink being in the bedroom and not in the bathroom so post loo you had to handle doors etc to reach the sink. I suspect in time the lovely owners will upgrade that bathroom from a bath to a shower and create space for a sink.

We were greeted very warmly and our host was ready to answer all our questions about getting to a wedding venue. Really helpful to have a map to find our way around. Great having an honesty bar - and to have a lounge to be able to use. Breakfast was good - I was delighted to be offered fresh fruit and yoghurt and my husband was equally pleased with a full English breakfast. The view from the room across the valley was beautiful. The Avoncourt is a great locations for getting to The Tunnels as well as to the town itself.

A very lovely property in Ilfracombe in a lovely location, next to a nice coastal path, and only a few minutes walk into the town where there’s the beach, cliff walks, food, shops etc. A very lovely town and if you walk a few minutes further you get to Verity and a busier but nice part of the town where the aquarium is. Lovely breakfast, lovely staff and lovely, comfortable and cozy rooms. I would definitely recommend !

Just a suggestion- for the breakfast room a bit of radio or music would be lovely !

Very warm and friendly greeting from Alison. Shown around the property, which was really helpful. Views are stunning. The rooms were lovely, very comfortable, had everything you could need, and were spotless. We were provided with maps and lots of really useful local information, which was great. Alison, Stacey, and Heather really were fantastic, looked after all of us, and to be honest, nothing was too much trouble even though we were a large group of mixed ages and needs. We would recommend to anyone with no doubt.

Alison, Heather and staff are consummate hosts. It's a haven in a wonderful place. Beautiful views from upstairs rooms. Next to Tor Devon pathway walks. Excellent facilities. It has the most wonderful honesty bar which is well equipped. A very warm place to stay. 10 minutes from Ilfracombe town walking. Beautiful views . A treasure of a place. Heather cooks a superb breakfast.

Not applicable the place is a gem.

Pulled up earlier than check in to be met by Heather and poppy who said we could check in straight away and get the car parked up- super helpful. If you can't walk up hills then this place is not for you if you want to walk into Ilfracombe but if like us, you walk the costal path before breakfast then you're in for a treat! Breakfast was lovely and cooked just right. This place is a gem and Alison has got it spot on with the help of Heather who seems like she would do anything for anyone

Alison and Heather were wonderful, we attended wedding at the Tunnels and Alison kindly dropped us at the venue in good time, was very helpful and friendly, a great host. It was a nice breakfast and they made us feel very welcome.

Due to no fault of their own, you could hear everything going on in other rooms. The central heating or plumbing pipes going through the building quite early creaking and banging. Pillows weren't very comfy 😴
