Avoncourt Lodge

Friendly and efficient staff, attention to detail, clean and tidy, very quiet

On arrival we were met by one of the owners, who was very friendly and informative. She continued to be so throughout our stay, giving us ideas of where to go and even offering us a lift into town. The other owner we only saw at breakfast but she was equally friendly and efficient. The breakfasts were delicious, filling and healthy ( fresh fruit salad with yoghurt)

On arrival we were greeted by Alison one of the owners & she gave us an idea of our bearings this was fantastic and really began a wonderful relationship for the whole stay. The room was small but extremely functional for us both and really comfortable and clean, only a couple of minor issues with maybe updating a few things but everything worked and we were extremely happy for the duration of our stay The breakfast and facilities were excellent & we loved our mornings catching up with the owners, John the chef was superb and the food was exceptional Loved the location the people and the food and slept extremely well for the duration of our stay We would recommend highly this wonderful accommodation and the owners/ staff were a credit to the Hospitality community

To be honest, my heart sunk when we first arrived, the approach to the Lodge and general outside looks quite unkempt, and a bit scruffy. The reception, bar, breakfast and lounge areas all quite old fashioned and basic, also bedrooms where quite dated and everything in need of refurbishment. but saying that the staff and breakfasts really made up for it, the place seemed clean, and the bed was comfy, I enjoyed a lovely hot bath & nice fluffy white towels. all of the staff were absolutely amazing and couldn't do enough for us. Breakfast was way and above expectations. so for the price we paid all in all it turned out okay.

A lovely little B&B close to the centre of Ilfracombe. Room was clean and well sized and the owners/staff and breakfast were great.
