We stayed in Clovelly for one night before beginning the south coast path, and Clovelly looked like a lovelly picturesque little town, but you only have two "hotel options". The New Inn looked nicer than the red lion down by the harbor. The staff was friendly, but the hotel seems old and dark inside. Of course, we had rain whilst... More

Clovelly is said to be commercialised, but we found this unique fishing village very friendly and welcoming. The New Inn was charming, with a cosy bar, tasty local real ale, and an excellent restaurant. Our room was very comfortable and well-equipped, with a hot bath - much-appreciated after our 11-mile cliff-top walk from Westward Ho!

Booked into the New Inn, late Friday Morning over the internet. Arrived at 4.30pm Saturday afternoon, greated with a warm welcome and shown to our clean and comfy room. Clovelly is a lovely small fishing village, you can wind down the steep cobbled hill to the Red Lion Hotel, and take in the stunning views along the coast line. The... More

Didn't stay in the hotel but went for lunch. The food was terrible and over priced. We ordered chicken burger and chips, vegetable Lasagne and gammon, eggs and chips.

It is such a pretty village and we were able to stay in the heart of it at the New Inn. We had a lovely room with sea views from the large window seat. We ate in the restaurant which provided a lovely dinner. All the staff were very friendly.

As part of our trek around the south west coast path the New Inn was a very quaint and quite comfortable stop. No TV or radios in the room though and the bar menu was limited with the restaurant closed, but great and very welcome baths.

We went as a family and after several awful meals at other establishments great at last to have a reasonably decent meal. We ate about 7pm on a weekday and all the tables were taken. The service was good and the food was reasonably priced. A good choice of pubby food.

we had a fantastic time in the new inn. the staff were very very helpful. the inn is a very quaint and peaceful place to chill out. the food was good and the rooms very neat and tidy..definatly be back..

Clovelley is on a very steep hill so it is about 8 minutes uphill to this place from the SW Coast path but it is worth the walk up to be away from the 'hustle and bustle' of the harbour area. When we were there they had a music festival at the harbour and it would have been a noisy... More
