Across many reviews, Rock House Hotel is praised for its scenic waterfront setting by the sea and river, easy access to Lynmouth’s village and walks, and comfortable rooms with attractive views that make it a pleasant base for short stays.
A recurring theme is that the on-site bar and restaurant are often closed or limited, with check-in or meals handled at the nearby Rising Sun, which some guests found inconvenient, especially for mobility needs. Staff are frequently described as friendly and attentive, and breakfast is commonly praised. Cleanliness is generally good but housekeeping and decor feel inconsistent at times, and while on-site parking helps, spaces can be tight or limited. Expect a characterful stay with strong basics and a few operational trade-offs.

The location is perfect and as my husband is partially disabled, the car parking is really important. We love the views, and sounds of the river and sea.

Bit disappointed. bedroom was of a good size and clean. no reception service or restaurant - which was advised prior to the trip, but trying to contact the Rising Sun who took over those services was really bad. never answered the phone and didn't answer my text message. Parking was not great due to a large van taking one space but blocking at least two other bays (only approx. 6 parking bays) - unfortunate i know, but after a long journey - wasn't appreciated. the obviously the "inconvenience" of having to go to the rising sun for the keys/checkin just not too impressed sorry - do realise there were issues behind the scene and was prepared to accept but we went there 38yrs ago on our honeymoon and we were going back to re-live that wonderful time so felt on that basis a little let down. sorry

Unfortunately we started our stay by being informed that the hotel was only open for accommodation. We were then told all food would be available at a hotel across the road which was a concern as my wife suffers from parkinsons and her mobility is not good at periods throghout the day. If we had been informed of this prior to our stay we might have changed our plans. Added to this the cost of the eveving meal was above expectations.

We came during winter and had the place all to ourselves. The hotel facilities were closed and we had to check in and have breakfast at the hotel across the road. However it was totally worth it. The room was beautifully decorated with views from every window. Heating was fantastic, firm mattress, brand new renovated bathroom, and the best cookies. The town is across a small bridge and was so picturesque.

Excellent break, on our first stay. Manager very attentive and service oriented. Top location and would recommend for a short stay. Food very reasonably priced with a good menu. Some of the reviews moan about the restaurant being closed on a Monday/Tuesday, but full dining facilities available at their sister hotel, The Rising Sun a mere 100yds away, so not a problem. Good beer garden by the sea.

Have stayed previously a few years back this stay unfortunately the bar and kitchen area were under renovation which we were aware of before we arrived. Bit of a phaff having to get keys from sister hotel and to also have the breakfast there which we declined due to opening hours. No doubt when the hotel is up and running again fully normality will return. We would not hessitate to return again when the hotel is fully open again. Its got to be one of the best hotels in area for seaviews and the harbour from some of the rooms. Hope to return soon

Cleanliness
Many guests found rooms clean, with some refreshed during stays, but housekeeping lapses and worn areas (e.g., grubby carpets or shower grouting) are reported. Overall standards feel inconsistent.

We found the staff very nice especially the guy that served our breakfast and barmaid. Reception tried to help with tv but not a lot of choice of channels to watch probably because of awful weather and where the hotel was situated. Bed was really huge and comfy but decor needed up dating. Carpet in room and reception area really grubby. Sink and loo in our room was fine but shower was filthy especially the lower grouting and shower door. Glad we were only staying 1 night as wouldn't want to use it. The meal we ate in the evening was fine although it wasn't until l had eaten mine and looked at menu l realised l hadn't had the gluten free fish and chips the menu looked as though it was but a small box in corner said on request. Cooked breakfast was lovely although no gluten free cereal option also no oatmilk or decaf tea.

The food was excellent. Some of the best we've ever had. The staff are really nice too. The room was pleasant and quite spacious and although it was clean i did notice some food crumbs on the floor and we had not eaten in the room. My only criticism is the bed. You could feel the mattress springs. I would recommend that the owners invest in some mattress toppers to improve comfort.

Lovely bedroom and shower room,recently refurbished. We were checked in by a nice chap, told us breakfast times and showed us the breakfast room. Had a table booked for an evening meal, we were greeted by a very unhappy waitress. “You booked ? “ we agreed that we had, “that’s your table then” pointing across the room. Her customer service skills were nonexistent, not even a smile! She certainly needs some training. Breakfast on the first morning as okay, nothing special on the buffet table. We were not offered any conserves for our toast, but not a deal breaker. Breakfast second morning, arrived at the breakfast room to the door looked and reception in darkness, no one in the kitchen, it was like the Marie Celeste! Just before 9 o’clock we discovered from the maintenance man that breakfast was served over the road at the sister hotel! We had not been informed on check in or at breakfast the first morning. It would have been helpful if a notice had been placed on the breakfast room door even. We went without breakfast.

Service was good and the staff were friendly and helpful. It’s right in the heart of Lynmouth and has some great walks nearby. We didn’t use the car at all whilst we were there.

The location is perfect and as my husband is partially disabled, the car parking is really important. We love the views, and sounds of the river and sea.

Couple with a dog decided to stay somewhere with great dog walks on the doorstep. This was it. Lovely time.

Arrived a little early and room wasn't ready, so sat outside and had a drink and food. Staff were friendly and room was adequate. Excellent location

Nice place with convenient access straight over the bridge to the quayside. Miserable weather on the day we arrived but walked right into the Lynmouth Maritime regatta. Fun all day long. Staff in the hotel were all friendly and helpful. Lovely breakfast. Would stay again.

We have stayed in this hotel a couple of times before, first being over 30 years ago. They are having work done, but this did not affect us at all. The sea views we booked were as we expected. Service was good and the staff were friendly and helpful. It’s right in the heart of Lynmouth and has some great walks nearby. We didn’t use the car at all whilst we were there. Would definitely go again, we had a lovely weekend

Location is amazing - best in Lynton/Lynmouth as it’s right by the sea. The room was very comfortable. Would definitely recommend.

Dining
Breakfast is frequently praised and some diners enjoyed good, reasonably priced meals. However, the restaurant often is not open (including some weekdays), with meals moved to the sister hotel where waits and dietary communication issues have been reported.

The view from our bedroom window overlooking the Lynn River to the bustling streets of Lynmouth with behind the hanging woods on the hills above was enchanting. The staff were very friendly and the full English breakfast excellent, highly recommended.

We found the staff very nice especially the guy that served our breakfast and barmaid. Reception tried to help with tv but not a lot of choice of channels to watch probably because of awful weather and where the hotel was situated. Bed was really huge and comfy but decor needed up dating. Carpet in room and reception area really grubby. Sink and loo in our room was fine but shower was filthy especially the lower grouting and shower door. Glad we were only staying 1 night as wouldn't want to use it. The meal we ate in the evening was fine although it wasn't until l had eaten mine and looked at menu l realised l hadn't had the gluten free fish and chips the menu looked as though it was but a small box in corner said on request. Cooked breakfast was lovely although no gluten free cereal option also no oatmilk or decaf tea.

Poor experience for breakfast had to walk to the Rising Sun pub and then wait 20 minutes to order food and then 20 min before it arrived which wasn’t that exciting.

The food was excellent. Some of the best we've ever had. The staff are really nice too. The room was pleasant and quite spacious and although it was clean i did notice some food crumbs on the floor and we had not eaten in the room. My only criticism is the bed. You could feel the mattress springs. I would recommend that the owners invest in some mattress toppers to improve comfort.

Excellent break, on our first stay. Manager very attentive and service oriented. Top location and would recommend for a short stay. Food very reasonably priced with a good menu. Some of the reviews moan about the restaurant being closed on a Monday/Tuesday, but full dining facilities available at their sister hotel, The Rising Sun a mere 100yds away, so not a problem. Good beer garden by the sea.
