"Just returned from a wonderful stay at the Carlton. It’s a beautiful hotel with exceptional staff—nothing is ever too much trouble. Breakfast offered an impressive selection, all freshly prepared. My favourite was the bacon sandwich, with the homemade granola a very close second. The décor and furnishings throughout the hotel were finished to a very high standard. Its location was ideal for visiting Woolacombe, Barnstaple, Lynton, and Lynmouth, and it’s only a short walk to the local beach and harbour."

"First time visitor to Ilfracombe, booked hotel on a whim. We definitely lucked out! The level of cleanliness is high, the food is genuinely delicious and the service is exemplary. My kids have stated that we must return, so we shall. Happy customers!"

"A brilliant find! We chose The Carlton because it was conveniently close to a Wedding we were attending, but we will definitely return to enjoy this fab hotel again. It’s ideally situated so that there’s no steep hill to climb on your way back from the harbor! The rooms and public areas are beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. Breakfast is amazing, and all the staff are friendly and helpful. Looking forward to returning soon. You’ll love it!"
