Hotel overview
Set in a charming Regency townhouse, this traditional 3-star hotel offers travelers a warm and welcoming base just moments from the sea. The property’s rooms feature cozy furnishings paired with scenic coastal views, giving a glimpse of the nearby shoreline right from your window. Dining options include two on-site restaurants and a lively bar, ideal for relaxing evenings after a day exploring Exmouth.
Families and pet owners will appreciate the thoughtful amenities, including kid-friendly services and pet-friendly policies.

What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“What a find! Comfortable room on the 3rd floor. Fab staff, very flexible, let me add on extra nights - such a good price £90 for 2 nights. The 1st night was booked through TripAdvisor and cost me a lot more. Lovely view from my room. Excellent quality towels. Bed and pillow way too hard, thank goodness I brought my own bedding - pillow, duvet and padded bedspread!”
