A haven of peace, a sweet-smelling jewel of Victorian charm with almost mystical healing powers, Victoria Lodge is so much more than a base from which to explore the loveliness of Lynton or a sunny space in which to warm bones gone chilly after hours of hiking Exmoor. The rooms are lovely, and two lounges offer cozy, sunny spots for reading or chatting.
Serving up the most impressive breakfasts I’ve seen anywhere in an atmosphere so friendly and relaxed that even home can seem stilted and uncomfortable in comparison, any day that begins in Victoria Lodge is destined to be a great one, even when the weather isn’t cooperating.
Jacqueline, the proprietress, is the heart and soul and smile of the establishment, for although there are many comfy enough B&Bs in Britain, few convey the welcome, the warmth and the service this one provides, all through the charm and effort of Jacqueline, and the staff does a wonderful job as extensions of her graciousness.
With lovely gardens, easy access to stunningly beautiful walks … the one through the Valley of the Rocks is a personal favorite … in a friendly village full of great restaurants, charming shops and lovely views from almost any angle, it is easy to be effusive with enthusiasm in recommending Victoria Lodge for a stay of any duration. Although a weekend would be lovely, a week or more is just that much better for the extra time here.

An impressive Victorian B&B, very comfortable and smartly decorated , plus great breakfasts too. Its really quiet , yet in the heart of the village.So if you want to treat yourself or chill , it gets my vote. My only regret is I wish I stayed longer. Lynton is a very charming village , with many breathtaking walks along the coast

Rooms were beautiful, comfortable and very clean.
We have never experienced such a wide choice of breakfasts, all
beautifully cooked.
The owner was extremely hospitable and friendly as were the staff.
We consider ourselves "hard to please" but honestly could not
fault our stay. We will certainly be back.
A big thank you from Paul and Vivienne.

I'd previously stayed at Victoria Lodge when Ben and Jane owned it so was a little trepidatious when I knew that it had a new owner. However, I should not have worried, the excellent standards set previously have been maintained, with great hospitality, comfortable well equipped rooms and a magnificent breakfast.

“A wonderful place to stay!”
Victoria Lodge
24 Sep 2006
1/9 found this review helpful
We stayed at Victoria Lodge for a week in September 2006. This is a magnificent place to stay if you want quality, cleanliness and that touch of something special. We usually stay in good quality hotels and this is our first ever experience of staying in bed & breakfast accomodation. The standard of this accomodation knocks spots off many of the more expensive hotels we have previously stayed in. An aire of peace and quiet hits you as soon as you enter Victoria Lodge. Our room was wonderful with everything you could wish for and the owner made us feel extremely welcome. Breakfast is a real treat in itself. We couldn't recommend this accomodation more highly and if we ever visit Lynton again there will only be one place we would want to stay - Victoria Lodge - Well done!
