The hotel looks nothing from the outside (a bit 70s motel-ish) but inside is a different story. The rooms are clean, the bed very comfy, the outdoor pool is heated, the inside pool like a bath, staff friendly and helpful... Breakfast was very good value for money - you could eat as much as you like for £12 and there... More

Not the most attractive building but I had a warm welcome after a day's training. My room was very clean and attractive but didn't have the best of views. My priority though was to get in the pool and I was all geared up for the outside pool, as it had been a beautiful day. Unfortunately the outside pool was... More

Accommodating a group of 16 golfers can be a challenge for the most efficient of hotels but the staff at the Barnstaple Hotel rose to the occasion magnificently.

Booking a room quite late in the day, when we arrived outside my partner stated that it didn't look great on first impression, the bright white building on the corner of a busy road network did not fill us with confidence.
