Overall Ratings & Reviews The North Cliff Hotel

The hospitality at this hotel was exceptional. The hosts were very attentive and genuinely welcoming. The property was clean and tidy. I greatly enjoyed my stay at The North Cliff Hotel and highly recommend this place.

This was a beautiful, small hotel with a great view and a great location. The staff were very friendly and had everything we needed.

The North Cliff Hotel was one of those charming old traditional Hotels, that as a Hotel had been in operation for 100years. The Managers were lovely and helpful. Our room was up 3 floors, but they assisted with bags. Our room was small, but had great views. Great English brekky included, and we did have a simple dinner there the before. Honesty tab for wine, beers, drinks and snacks in the dining room. Check in is not until 3.30pm, and dinner orders must be in by 4pm. The railway to Lynmouth is right next to the Hotel. Worth catching back up if you have walked down. Lyton town is also charming with lots of good pubs for drinks dinner etc.

The hotel is in a great position, less than five minutes walk from Lynton centre, has fantastic sea views and also looks down over Lynmouth. It is also right beside the funicular railway and even has its own entrance by the top. Our room wasn't the biggest but it was comfortable and being twin aspect had great views. There is an honesty bar and interesting public areas. There was even an EV charging point in the hotel car park. All in all a very pleasant stay.

Superb in every way. Warm and welcoming staff who couldn’t have been more helpful and kind. Cosy but spacious bedroom with very comfortable bed. Fantastic home cooked food and plenty of it! A roaring log fire and honesty bar for drinks and snacks. The views are spectacular and although in a quiet location, within easy reach of the shops.

Good Sea View

Upgrade simply because they had a better view room available. Very friendly & understanding staff over food & did their best to meet requests. Lovely stay

We really love this area in Lynton. This hotel is about my favourite in the area. I think it’s fine. It hasn’t changed much(at all?) in last 5 years. It’s definitely being run a bit understaffed (limited coverage on front desk and hours for food service). If you are organised it’s not an issue but it’s noticeable. Id rate this as a 3.5 star level hotel in a marvellous location. As long as you are out and about a lot (we are) it doesn’t matter too much. On the one hand it feels a bit pricey but I keep going back so hey maybe it’s not!

Ice place ticked my box

The property had a vintage appeal and very well equipped. Very well located off the Lynton town. The room i booked was very spacious and had great views. The Lynton rail passes by the hotel and has an easy access to the cliff top. Easy access to gGreat costal trails from the hotel. I reccomend if visiting the Lynton Rail , Woolacombe, Valley of Rocks etc. Also a call out for the wonderful breakfast and the awesome staffs.

Lovely hotel that has been through a tasteful refurbishment in recent times. Lovely comfortable room, large fluffy towels and the best cooked to order Full English breakfast I’ve had in a hotel. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Bar prices are reasonable and it has a great little terrace with fabulous views overlooking Lynmouth bay. The cliff railway passes the side of the hotel and can be accessed by a series of steep steps that give the lungs a good work out. But worth it for the ride down to beautiful Lynmouth Lynton has a lot of steep hills … short but mighty ! you need a certain amount of stamina to climb them and flat shoes.

Superb hotel and amazing staff and facilities

Wonderful stay at The North Cliff Hotel! Great location for easy access into the town and the Tarka trail for the Valley of Rocks and beyond on the coastal path. Our room had the most incredible views across the bay from two sides. The beds were very comfortable and the shower was powerful. We had to leave early for the ferry to Lundy so we didn’t get to stay for breakfast but the staff were very accommodating allowing us an early check in after a long overnight flight and drive. There was plenty of tea, coffee and biscuits and overall it was a wonderful stay!

Stayed in the quad room with sea view. Wonderful, characterful property with very friendly, helpful proprietors. Beautiful breakfast room and comfortable lounge. The honesty bar is a great idea and we used it. From the photos we did think our room looked out to sea but was actually at the back/side of the house which was a bit disappointing..but we could still see the sea at a stretch. Overall a lovely stay. Electric car charger was excellent. Only slight negative would be the enormous wooden bed that literally filled the room. No room for anything else such as luggage and we would bang our shins on it trying to get to the other little bedroom. Would stay again but go for one of the front rooms. Thank for a lovely stay.

Nice Friendly staff outstanding views of the Bristol Channel…clean comfortable and quiet!!

Last minute overnight stay booked. Great hotel at a beautiful location, wonderful staff.

Old furniture and facilities

More of a guest house feel rather than a hotel. Very friendly staff.Parking a bit of a challenge.

The location was stunning. The owners were warm, friendly and very helpful. The evening menu was extensive and what we chose was delicious. There was a low carb, low GI meal available which was both welcome and extremely tasty. Breakfast was a feast and set us up for the day. Highly recommend this hotel.

What a fabulous hotel. The couple who run it and own it Rebecca and Steve are the perfect hosts (apart from Steve’s Dad jokes). The food is always freshly cooked to order. Hot when it arrives and very tasty. The whole experience is amazing. From the beauty of the decor to the amazing layout, bar, dining and lounge area. Rebecca and Steve work extremely hard to make the stay as enjoyable as possible. We will be going back in the near future. Don’t miss out by looking elsewhere.
