Very welcoming, great food. I asked the young lady on reception if there was any way I could print off some paperwork for work as I'd left mine back home in Newcastle upon tyne and she was very helpful and printed my paperwork for me.

Fabulous chefs produced 7 course taster evening meal and wonderful again chef prepared breakfast, amazing flavours and absolutely coordinated and balanced tasty servings over a large number of locally sourced products. Service was friendly and knowledgeable and professional throughout our stay. We felt everything was made to happen very specially just for us, a wonderful experience and a culinary delight.

The town is easy to get around and has plenty of places to eat. Sadly the River Taw looks very polluted with brown foam floating down it, which gives the town a rather dilapidated feel.
Otherwise a pleasant [place to stay

Barnstaple is a great base for touring north Devon.
Barnstaple is a great base for touring north Devon. There are good link roads that take you through to north Cornwall and the whole of north Devon. Don’t like driving the bus service is excellent although when it’s busy there are slight delays just allow yourselves the time for this. Barnstaple is a lovely town with lots a shops and some are Independant. We are looking to move to the area to be nearer our daughter

This is a nice little west country town on the estuary of the Taw river, with easy access (by car) to surfing beaches of Croyde and Woolacombe bay, and to Exmoor for hiking.
It's easy to get around the town on foot. Bike rental is available for going farther afield.
There are some excellent restaurants, notably Tiffins (Indian).
There is an amusing museum with local information and artifacts .

Although not itself overly picturesque, it has excellent bus services to many places that are - Westward Ho, Ilfracombe, Bideford, Lynmouth and even Minehead! More should be made of these in publicity, don't assume everyone has a car.

I lead other cyclists on the Devon Coast to Coast cycle Trail , & Barnstaple is near the start or finish depending on whether you are going south or north. I normally go to the Hunters Lodge just south of Barnstaple they are excellent but they were full at the time.
Tarka Trail , Grit stone path, Drakes Trail etc

Barnstaple is a charming town with a good range of architecture but particularly after dark the town is full of beggars, drunks, drug addicts giving the town a very unsafe and grubby feel. The Police and Council appear to have given up on improving the social environment and this probably impacts on the town’s tourist industry.
Lovely place to stay, our hosts were very welcoming, happy to help us with whatever we needed. Welcome pack provided including trout from the farm. Set in beautiful countryside with a stream running right past the cottage. Good location for Barnstaple and surrounding area. The cottage was very well equipped with everything we needed in the kitchen and other things like board games and books. We also used the sauna, which was great after a rather wet day out and a fun addition to the cottage. We didn't want to leave!
Lovely place with beautiful gardens and green fields as far as the eyes can see.
The barn was a nice size plenty of room.
Very big cosy bed with a good thick duvet.
Kitchen was just absolutely incredible. Looks like a cudbored but you open it up and its a full kitchen unit. Very impressive all round
Such a lovely place to stay quiet and peaceful.
Definitely off the beaten track and down a few small lanes.
Thank you so much really enjoy our stay
Quirky secluded stay down a well-kept and very well lit track from the carpark. The instructions were excellent, the key, a torch, etc, all very accessible and the guest's needs really thought about. Wonderful! The cottage is tucked away in beautiful, interesting woodland with the sound of the stream below. Gorgeous location. The accommodation is exceptionally well equipped with everything you need. /the area is lovely too. Highly recommended!
We were running very late from London and the hosts were brilliant to accommodate us! We felt really welcoming and at ease right away. We loved everything about our stay. Such a cosy and comfortable place with a beautiful garden !! The amazing hosts and the place has a great warmth to say the least. It felt like a home away from home 😊 !! We highly recommend and would love to stay again on our next visit to Barnstaple !!
Contemporary and clean the room had a great view of Rock Park. Location is ideal for a walk into town. We had visited and stayed at the hotel 3 years ago and were very happy and now it had been updated so was even better. Barnstaple shops were largely unaffected from closure which is a problem in our area. Dining experience was wonderful and staff were attentive and cheerful.
This is the cleanest most well organised hotel that I have ever stayed in
The staff are well trained but also so friendly and accommodating
Check in and out simple and quick friendly service
We used the pool which was cleaned on the hour
We are already checking our diaries to book our next trip
Thank you Barnstaple Hotel 5 star ⭐️
The interior decor was outstanding. The host were friendly, chatty without being intrusive. The breakfast was a wonderful surprise having a hint of the full English but refreshing light and with plenty of other fare for those with a different palate. Next time we travel to the Barnstaple area 22 will be the prefer place to stay.
Perfect base to visit north Devon!!,
Off the beaten track, Ideal for a couple, lovely Bedroom ( comfy)
All facilities are there to make your stay enjoyable.
Friendly family, lovely Dogs, amazing lake.

Great location. Nice architecture, well maintained. Attractive furnishings in the common areas. My single room was not huge but very comfortable. Friendly and helpful staff. Overall a very well run hotel.
The location was excellent. I was able to walk into Barnstaple in about 7 minutes. I was also upgraded to a bigger room on ariving. The room was very quiet being at the back of the hotel.
Cute and comfortable accomodation in Barnstaple. Simonne and Kim were very personable and accomodating hosts. Great breakfast and welcome hot tub after trekking.
