We have stayed several times at Lin and Jean-Paul's small "bistro" hotel, situated in the centre of Lynton.
There are only 5 rooms, no lift or noisy bar - just peace and quiet with good food served in the cosy restaurant, - if you wish to eat at St.Vincents be sure to reserve a table as it is popular with non-residents.
We enjoy the quiet "attentiveness" of the hosts - nothing is too much trouble and they are genuinely concerned about their guest's comfort .

Dinner has always been excellent - try Jean-Paul's Bouillabaisse and be prepared to tuck your table napkin under your chin to obtain full enjoyment!! - there would be no "raised eyebrows" or "tutting"!!!
Wine list O.K. ; could be improved with a few better quality bottles.Our advice is to choose from lower end of the list.
If you are a "beer-beast", try one of the unusual Belgian beers available from a wide selection.
Good choice for breakfast - scrambled eggs cooked to order - perfection.

A lovely place to spend a quiet ,stress-free long weekend to unwind from the pressures of work.

A cosy guesthouse of 5 rooms all with period decor and situated in the centre of Lynton.
There is no onsite parking but this is not a problem as a pay and display as well as free on-street parking are easily available. As Lynton is not a busy place parking is not an issue.

We purchased a weekly parking pass from the town hall for £10. If you compare this to the daily rate of £7.50 this is a bargain. The parking pass can also be used in nearby Lynmouth thus avoiding the very expensive cliff railway charges.

Back to the hotel...Jean-Paul and Lin run a very friendly establishment and are always on call for advice for the local area. The rooms were clean, comfortable and in a quiet area. The breakfast offered was well cooked offered a good choice and used quality ingredients.

The evening meals were also of a good standard but expensive with very small portions and weak desserts. I would recommend eating at the nearby Crown where the food was much better and half the price! However, this should not distract staying at St.Vincent and I would certainly recommend a stay at B&B only.
