The property is a listed building located on a hill overlooking Ilfracombe's harbour and coast. We had a top floor room affording good views (binoculars are provided). The bedroom was well furnished, bedding was spotless cotton linen.
The breakfast menu was provided in advance allowing you to notify your order ready for preparation the breakfast selection and ingredients were first class.
There are parts of Ilfracombe where some premises are empty and have been vandalised having a detrimental impact on the Town's appearance.

The Olive Branch is a really friendly place to stay. It delivers more than you expect from the 3 star rating.
Parking in the nearby town car park is less than £10 for 24 hours and is about a minute away, so very good being so near the harbour.
Definitely my first choice if I am back in Beachcomber.

I visited the Olive Branch before and after a trip to Lundy. When the departure had to be put back by 24 hours because of a high wind there was absolutely no difficulty in our being able to stay over for the extra unbooked night. Likewise on my return even though I was rather late I was met with the warmest of welcomes and a feeling of being part of a household. My only criticism is that some of the bedrooms are up several flights of stairs and for the elderly (like me) were easier climbed after a (very) good breakfast than when tired by a long walk on the local cliffs. . . butt that is in a way why it feels more like a house tan a hotel. I rate it highly

The team are just amazing ! Room 5 very comfortable with spectacular views. Breakfast superb. Shanty choir on the premises in the evening was great fun. Restaurants nearby are lovely …. Suggest booking though as very popular.

The property is in an excellent location when you consider the geography of the town. It was very easy to walk down to the harbour area and the seafront. We were warmly welcomed upon arrival and advised of breakfast arrangements and local options for evening meals.
The room itself (twin located on top floor) was a little quirky and you obviously have to work within the constraints of a room size and layout. That said climbing up steps into the wet room bathroom was a little odd, with just a flimsy cheap shower curtain used to limit the shower water from covering everything in the bathroom. Bedding was on the budget side (a couple of tears on seems), mattresses just about comfortable and the oddest wardrobe (which was chest high, had a shelf and was too small to hang most things in).
All of that aside the room was clean tidy and provided a comfortable overnight stay. You could see the sea from the windows which was just lovely. The breakfast the following morning was excellent and that combined with the location, meant that overall we received very good value for money.
