Everything was of a very high standard,couldn’t have asked for anything more ! It really was a lovely stay , we will definitely come back !

Zentral gelegene Unterkunft mit sehr gutem Frühstück. Unser Zimmer lag im zweiten Stock mit etwas Aussicht auf den Hafen. Badewanne im Zimmer ist vielleicht cool, aber nicht sehr praktisch. Ansonsten aber alles sehr bequem und geräumig.

Great stay with lovely sea view. Thanks

Another great stay in room 1 which has the large free standing bath,king sized bed and superb views of the sea towards the theatre. Breakfast great. Highly recommend

Room was very large and comfortable. Exactly as described and right downtown. Very walkable to all attractions and dining. Jo was a great host and provided excellent, large breakfast. Piano bar downstairs on Thurs - Sat nights. Would stay again.

Had another lovely stay, lovely place with a great view. Owner was lovely, can't wait to go again.

Lovely B&B at a reasonable price. Freshly cooked breakfast was a plus, as were the friendly staff. Short walk to restaurants and sea.

Great stay 4th April. Wonderful views. Nice bathroom with free standing bath. Lovely breakfast cooked by Jo. Really friendly and helpful owners. Back in June which says it all.

Lovely hosts and great ambience

Beautiful guest house, delicious breakfast and very helpful staff

We had a lovely time shame it wasn't more than one night, great service and even sand Shantys with the group that meet up there every Thursday.

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.

Lovely little B&B. Have been going there for a number of years now. Simple, friendly, and comfortable with a great breakfast.

Room comfy and clean, host friendly and welcoming. Good location in the centre of the town.

A lovely warm welcome, excellent food and a great view. Thank you

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.
