The Sherborne Lodge

Convenient and flexible stay. Very friendly staff and generous portions for breakfast. Can be noisy in the mornings, especially with windows open.

had a good stay here and the breakfast was out of this world! Really good value. Beautiful and clean rooms with the best shower ever! Plenty of tea, coffee etc. Perfect location, easy and pretty walk to town but in a very quiet and quaint street. Ilfracombe is quirky and fab but clearly suffering the same social issues as many seaside towns and was a little uncomfortable with children out and about in the evening. I cannot give 5 stars as there was a bit of a tone of this in the guest house. There was a persistent smell of cigarettes, some incredible strange goings on in the night. Lots of movement, banging and shouting. The hostess was a very interesting lady. While she attempted to be welcoming and clearly works very hard I felt she was very over familiar and at times It felt uncomfortable. I would potentially return based on the rooms, food, price and location but absolutely not with children!

We thought the breakfast was the best we've ever had in the UK. The towels provided are the biggest we've ever had in the UK. It is the only hotel we've stayed at, that has an electric car charging point. The owner c,early loves dogs as much as people and fed ours with at least one sausage! Room 4 was a bad choice with a dog as there was insufficient floor space for her bed but there was no charge for the dog. The room was too hot upon entry. Neither were the curtains drawn, nor was the window open, but once a couple of buttons were pressed, the window let in enough air for the table top air conditioner to bring the room temperature down. However, at night, we ended up removing the winter duvet from its cover in order to sleep on the very comfy bed! The hotel is centrally located, but the area is so built up, that there was nowhere for the dog to go to the toilet before her sumptuous breakfast, nor before crawling into her rather scrunched up bed!

As per another review on here, I experienced a domestic incident on one of the nights I stayed (shouting, swearing, banging doors). This was quite scary as I was staying on my own. I found the room quite run down and didn't get the chance to have breakfast as they only served from 8.30am. Positives are that the host was very friendly and the towels and bed were new and clean but I'm afraid I won't be staying again.

a very nice stay the room was nice with tea making facilities breakfast was beautifully cooked and run by lovely people. the hotel is situated about a minute walk from town and all the bars and restaurants

Lovely hospitality from Lynne and Laura. Lynee was really personal with my son and wanted to know all about our religion and culture. It was welcoming and friendly. The room had everything we needed. I loved how thorough Lynne was with our requirements for our breakfast. I loved more of how Sherborne Lodge sent me an email asking for our dietry requirements. Catered very well for vegetarians.
