Overall Ratings & Reviews The Collingdale Guest House

Excellent Guest House, Good Location, Lovely Hosts Sharon & Daryl, Very Good Breakfast.

This property was stunning, clearly well cared for by the lovely owners Sharon and Daryl. A proper period property and a place to stay since the late 1800s. Fantastic views, lovely comfy beds and pillows. The breakfasts were amazing and we would absolutely recommend it to anyone wanting to visit Ilfracombe or as we did as a stay before heading to Lundy to dive.

Very helpful and friendly owners, convenient location, highly recommend

Welcoming hosts. Breakfast choice was good and quality could not be faulted

Amazing! Sharon and Daryl are the perfect hosts and me and my partner feel right at home. Parking is very easy, you can park up just outside the hotel. When you go in, you're greeted by the hosts who are so friendly. They give you a welcome booklet which gives you all the details you need about the hotel, places to eat, things to do etc. which is perfect if you've never visited the area before. Our room was lovely, comfortable bed, great sea view, very convenient wardrobe and drawers. Tea and coffee with some biscuits that are replenished everyday:) Everything you can need! Breakfast is wonderful, they cater to any dietary requirement (2 veggies). Brilliant service, gorgeous food and divine coffee every morning. There is a longue area with a TV if you want to relax and there is also an honesty bar available which was a really nice touch. Only a couple of niggling points. The Wi-Fi was so-so (we were on the top floor so understandable) and the shower can be a bit noisy but you get use to it. Would recommend this place to anyone!

The Collingdale Guest House was perfect. The room was beautiful and clean, the service impeccable and the breakfast was scrumptious. I look forward to staying there again!

A lovely guest house with lovely hosts Sharon and Darryl plus a lovely lady who helped at breakfast. Friendly team and easy going atmosphere. Well situated for the harbour. Breakfast was stunning and overall we had a lovely stay and would recommend it to everyone.

Staff excellent (they learnt everyone's names). Breakfast excellent and good views of the coast. Parking a bit of a challenge (although this is noted when booking). Room was a decent size.

Amazing sea views, very comfortable and a great breakfast. Sharon was very friendly and helpful. Will definitely look at booking again when in the area.

Sharon and Daryl were so welcoming and accommodating. They went out of their way to help us above and beyond requirements. Plus, their breakfast was superb! We loved the view from our room too.

Great location. Short walk to the town. Very friendly owner who looked after us throughout our stay. Room 2 has a large bed. En suite and a small balcony overlooking the harbour and sea. The breakfast is fantstic. The communal rooms very well appointed.

Liked guest bar and guest lounge. Breakfast was exceptional.

Lovely guesthouse with lovely staff. Room was a bit too small for us, would have suited a single person more, but a nice room with great views nonetheless. Wouldn't book room 3 again as have to use a private toilet down a small set of stairs, first world problem I know but much prefer en-suite, especially early morning. Nice location but you need to be quite fit to climb the steep hill from the harbour and town, was okay for us but would be a challenge for the less mobile. Was no space for parking on road outside for the first couple of days, so had to pay for public parking at the bottom of the steep adjacent road. Was okay but you have to use Ringo if you don't have the change you need as there is no card option, and using Ringo was difficult as we couldn't get the App to work, or the phone number so had to go on their website in the end. It was the same for others parking at the same time.

We had the most amazing stay at the Collingdale. The location is ideal, short walk to the harbour, restaurants and pubs. We had the superior room and the seaview was beautiful. The guesthouse was very clean and had a lovely friendly feel to it. We were given a warm welcome, shown to our parking spot and helped with our luggage. The breakfast was delicious and plentiful, everything was fresh and service brilliant. Sharon was very helpful before our stay recommending restaurants and when we were there she also recommended places to visit. There are two large reception rooms and a honesty bar which was well stocked and prices are reasonable. Would highly recommend this guesthouse and would 100% come back here if in area.

The guest house was stunning and with equally stunning views to match. Location was good too. The parking was slightly frustrating as if you can’t get a space outside the guesthouse itself (usually about 40 spaces) then you have to park nearby which can be a walk. Sharon and Daryl were absolute stars, food was amazing. Sadly even gave me and my husband a lift to Tunnels Beaches for a wedding when we couldn’t get a taxi. Would defiantly book again. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Just had a wonderful stay at the Collingdale with my partner. Great location, 5 min walk to the harbour & town. The breakfast is 5 star & the brilliant local knowledge from Sharon is very useful if you are struggling to find things to do. Overall would definitely recommend.

Great service and lovely staff. Breakfast was tasty and in a ideal locatiob close to the harbour... definitely recommend!

We found our stay to be amazing. Warm welcome and covid safe, with clear information about breakfast and safety. Our room was fantastic with seaview. Restful night's sleep. Breakfast had a great selection and the full breakfast was so tasteful, loved it.

We thoroughly enjoyed our 4 night stay at the Collingdale Guesthouse. The rooms were spotless and the breakfast was perfection! Sharon and all the staff were lovely and couldn't do enough for us. Excellent location and beautiful views. We also felt very comfortable in the current situation with hand sanitiser provided and face masks worn in all communal areas. All in all a very pleasant stay and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend it!

Great hosts excellent breakfast and wonderful views and location
