A superb find! Dog friendly (very very dog friendly!!), with great food and portions at realistic prices. Friendly and quick service and background music that's amazing 😂. Highly recommended if you're in the area.
We were meant to have a family reunion carvery here as we'd been told that dogs were very welcome. Unfortunately when my grand daughter saw the fish on the bar crammed into such a tiny tank she was so upset we had to leave without even having a drink. It seems strange that a pub that welcomes dogs would treat their goldfish this way.
Don't be put off by how this place looks from.the outside!! We've been walking the SW coastal path and this hotel was out of town so if you're carrying everything it would add an extra few miles to your journey...we took transport up to the hotel....but this is Devon and the buses seem to have their own timetable!! The staff at the hotel were extremely friendly and made us very welcome. The room was basic but very clean and the bed was comfortable with a small ensuite with a shower. The bar food was delicious and plentiful in the evening and we had a good cooked breakfast to set us on our onward way in the morning.
Had a great short break with our family in Woolacombe. Family room basic but a good size, clean,comfy beds & hot shower. Staff really helpful & catered well for my husband who has to have a Gluten free diet. Evening meal delicious & breakfast was good. Brilliant location for Woolacombe & has on site parking. Would recommend for short break if you are on a budget.
Came for a meal with my family. It looks a bit rough and old but do not let that put you off. The food is delicious, large portions and very clearly cooked fresh and not put in a microwave. Best meal out I've had in a very long time.
