We have had a wonderful stay at The Poplars. Neil and Janet are friendly, informative hosts. Nothing was too much trouble.The hotel was lovely. It had everything you would need. We had a balcony room with countryside and sea views, comfy bed and pillows, and a hot shower, perfect.
Fabulous plentiful breakfast.Bar with log fire, garden with pool for hotter day's parking, and a stones throw from the beach restaurants and shops. We recommend The Dophine and Sawmills for food. What more could you ask for.
The coastal path starts just down the road, and we took a walk to Watermouth Harbour. It was beautiful. I wish we had time for more...

The property was very spacious and there was lots in there provided for us. The information pack provided was really useful too! Once of the best ones we’ve had.
Staff we’re lovely. Donna welcomed us in and was very kind and chatty. Had a few little problems with a taxi, however Donna helped us out immediately and was so easy to get hold of , which put us at ease. Donna was so lovely as the accommodation. If we are ever up this way again this will definitely be at mind to stay at again.

Excellent 'Combe Muffin' for breakfast out of a good selection of breakfast classics. Great stay, and it's perfect for walkers.
Nestled in the heart of the Devon countryside, this elegantly restored Victorian country house boasts luxury rooms and bungalow, a restaurant, free parking, and free Wi-Fi.

The food is extremely wonderful and the staff exceptional
Sheltered cove, great for SUP. Low tide makes it even better for small children. People on the beach are friendly and are there to have a good time. The beach is kept clean and there is a designated barbecue area if you want to. Loads of parking, and the town has everything you need and want.

Didn't go into Combe Martin apart from to Top Chippy (👍) and co-op (there's an ATM inside the co-op). Beach is not dog friendly at all, so no good for us. Also, reports of sewage outflows into its river, so not very appealing. Family went to Dinosaur theme park on outskirts, which grandson enjoyed. But it's incredibly hilly, no good for older people with bad knees! (Photo of view down into Combe Martin from Dinosaur park, below)
Got the impression that parking can be tricky in Combe Martin at busy times. Apparently We preferred the beautiful sandy beach at Saunton sands, 25 minutes away, good parking close to dog friendly beach, decent cafe, restaurant, loos, surf schools, some rock pools on right hand side for little crabs, warm pools for toddlers. Parking by the hour, unlike Woolacombe, which charges £10 whether you stay for 30 minutes or all day!!
We stayed on a farm on Ridge Hill a few miles away, but don't drive from CM over the hill, you need a machete to hack the bracken and brambles out of your path. Go round the slightly longer way if heading in that direction!
Lynmouth and Linton worth a visit, pretty little harbour town with 500ft cliff lift. Some free parking along front, by lift. Get lift up, then walk down the Poet's zigzag path for wonderful views over the bay and town. Nice coastal drive out of Lynmouth onto Exmoor, look out for ponies, and several parking areas close to coast path and a few easy walks round the headland with views back down towards Lynmouth. Wonderful Rambler's rest cafe at County gate, boundary with Somerset, delicious cream teas on pretty china, (photo below),best scones, friendly doggy and welcoming owners.
Dare to drive across the ford at Oare and gingerly cross Robbers bridge (fully an inch either side of car!), in Lorna Doone valley. (Photo of pretty ford below)

It's not the most picturesque place in Devon as it's an old Silver mining town, but it still has some great features. Beach is fantastic if you like interesting pebbles and rock pools, but also lots of sand and good surf. NB there is no beach when the tide is in! The Pack 'o' Cards pub is really good for an evening meal and one of the few places with good car parking, along with the Co-op, both well away from the beach. Parking is very poor, but if you're staying there then there are some great walks where not many go as there is hardly any car parking!

Unique accommodation and excellent hosts.
Unique accommodation and excellent hosts. Very quiet with sea views. Going to sleep with the sound of the sea was a real treat. Breakfast was lovely. I visited in October and Combe Martin was quite sleepy, but a perfect base for walking the coast path and exploring Exmoor.

Combe Martin is set along a very long High Street with the cove/coast at the bottom where most of the shops are. Not a great deal of choice with the shops - I would imagine at one time Combe Martin was very well serviced with small shops but, like alot of coastal towns now, the smaller independent shops have all closed down. There is a Co-op there. The cove area is quaint and attractive and is where the coastal path starts in both directions. Beautiful scenery from the coastal path.

Combe Martin is a lovely coastal seaside bay.
Combe Martin is a lovely coastal seaside bay. Ideal for families & sea-sporting people. The menu at the pub excellent. Choice of eating inside or out, overlooking the bay & sea. Pets were allowed in or out of restaurant. Proprietors & staff were friendly & pleasant. I would advise that people who have mobility issues should be aware of steep roads to car parks etc. but if you are able Combe Martin is excellent. Lastly Combe Martin is centre of many other seaside areas.
A great hotel to use as a base. Easy parking. Lovely beer garden to sit in after a day exploring. Room spacious and comfy beds. A place with lots of character and didnt feel corporate even though it can cater for occasional coach tours. We ate there twice and thought the food was great. Not too much locally in Coombe Martin for us but lots of beautiful coast line close by. I think it can get very busy at weekends but no issue for us during the week. Staff were really friendly.
Everything you could expect from a quality quest house. Lovely room, breakfasts, enjoyed sitting on the sunny terrace in the afternoon with a glass of beer or wine, staff were lovely . Great base for exploring the North Devon coast and close to the beach and some nice restaurants.
If your in the area for an occasion, you would do well to consider the channel Vista guest house before paying for some near by costlier hotels.
It's a lovely property right up the street form the beach in Combe Martin. Obligatory bed rating: very comfy, beautifully crisp but soft sheets. Slept like a rock. Michelle was an attentive and helpful host. Nice breakfast, and a well-stocked little honesty bar in the sun room, which was a godsend as very few establishments in town were open off-season (which I'd anticipated).
Fantastic location, which we needed as girls at the Calvert trust exmoor. We were so pleased with the park, superb new clean caravan with excellent views !!
Made our stay top mark.
The pool being heated was a win with the children!
A playground to met in socialise be good so not running around caravans
Beautiful views and lovely walk into Combe Martin
The property is clean, bright & modern. It has most of the things you’d expect from a self catering accommodation but there are a few things missing. It’s location in Combe Martin is really good - with easy walking access to shops, pubs & the beach. The cottage isn’t huge but is good as a base.
Great apartment, located very close to the seafront. The apartment had everything we needed. The hosts made us feel very welcome, helping take our bags in and our children were delighted with the little surprises left for them. It was a great base to explore the north Devon coast from.
We had a very pleasant stay, made very welcome with clotted cream and scones on arrival. The location is perfect, everything in Combe Martin within walking distance. 24 hr car parks are very close but get in early as they fill quickly at busy times.
Lovely breakfast. Location beautiful, even had a sea view which we didn’t expect. Staff were really lovely at both Sandaway and Combe Martin. You can easily access the Sandaway park and pool which is also lovely. A stones throw from the beach.
Loud music, plumbing droned like a foghorn throughout the night no-one around to help, when I complained next day to staff I was told ".Well it is an old building" I left went to Beach hostel in Ilfracombe. And spent 3 great nights there.
Excellent location, close to centre of Combe Martin, walking distance to coastal path and beaches. Room was good size and very comfortable. Warm welcome, great hosts and the breakfast was great . Definitely visit again.
An especially nice location for Combe Martin, close to the harbour with adequate parking.. The room faces the street but is very quiet after 2130. Newly furnished and decorated in a cheerful Caribbean seaside theme.
This Hotel is excellent! There is nothing they haven’t thought of! What ever you may need is provided! Breakfast was amazing, facilities and amenities 1st class! Beautiful location. This b & b is a real gem!!
Absolutely amazing hosts and a beautiful house. Will definitely be making a return trip. A little gem to be treasured in North Devon with hearty home cooked breakfast to start the day.
Lovely place, loved the decor, fantastic owners and service, Highly recommended. Easy walk into Combe Martin and lovely view of the sea. Look forward to a return stay!
