“A great place to stay”

We spent 3 days at Woodlands and although the weather wasn't great, Peter & Carol made us very welcome. Nothing was too much trouble. The house is tastefully decorated and bedrooms generous and comfortable. View from the bedroom was beautiful and we were not overlooked. Breakfasts were tasty, nicely presented and substantial enough to set you up for the day. Lynton and Lynmouth are within easy walking distance with much of the walk to Lynton being along a walkway accessed from the rear of the hotel with no traffic. We had a wonderful time and will not hesitate to go back or recommend it to friends.

My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful break at Woodlands this summer.

We went primarily for the walking on Exmoor and along the fantastic coast, for which Woodlands is ideally placed. The setting is lovely, quiet but convenient, set in the hill above the river with woodland views and direct access on foot to fantastic walks on and beyond the Watersmeet estate (NT). Yet only a few minutes walk along the Lynway footpath into Lynton for cafes, restaurants and local shops. Access by road to the A39 was easy when we wanted to travel further afield.

Peter and Carol made us most welcome from the start - friendly and helpful without being intrusive. Being summer 07 the weather was mixed, so it was helpful being able to access our room freely during the day occasionally. Rooms were unusually spacious, clean, and nicely furnished, with very comfy beds.

Breakfast was great and set us up well for a day's walking.

Being on the side of the Lyn Valley, gradients are steep so guests with walking difficulty could find the slope up to the house from the small car park tricky. However,for us this was a perfect base and we look forward to returning. Good value, too! Thankyou.

“Home from home”

Carole & Peter were very welcoming with nothing too much trouble. The hotel has a scenic position with a lovely view from our window over the valley. The bedoom was large & very comfortable while the superb breakfasts gave you a good start for a days walking. We had good weather but the drying room proved very useful on the odd occasion. Definately a place to come back to!
