    Nothing comes to mind

    Rockvale house is a very comfortable b&b, the owners have a wonderfully personable and professional manner~ the perfect pitch to feel comfortable, looked after and at ease whilst staying at a b&b. The breakfast was all freshly home-made and absolutely delicious. We wouldn't hesitate to stay again! 😊

    Everything was perfect!

    Ness & Phil were Exceptional Hosts — they really made me feel right at home and were so helpful during my stay. They really thought of everything. The room/bed/pillows were super cozy and comfortable. The breakfast was exceptional including the dining room and their attentive service. They had a surge protector with lots of outlets right next to the bed, so no problem charging my devices. They had milk in the fridge right near my room so I could add to the coffee I made in my room. They gave me advice (and pamphlets) on things to do in the area. And their cozy hotel was beautifully furnished and within walking distance of everything. The city center was literally a 1-2 minute walk away as was the beautiful "Valley of the Rocks" coastline trail. I will definitely visit them again and highly recommend staying there to all who visit Lynton or Lynmouth or Exmoor Park!

    Excellent location, magnificent views. The owners have gone the extra mile for guests to feel special - homemade bread, muesli, marmelades for breakfast. Very comfortable beds, extremely friendly, yet discreet owners. Quiet and intimate hotel. If we ever visit this part of UK again, we will definitely be staying there again.

    That our stay was so short.

    The breakfast options were far and above the usual fare offered at B&B’s. Each and every morning a perfect, individually prepared breakfast chosen beforehand was served, exactly when requested. A fresh bottle of water along with a chocolate was replaced each day for each of us. The hosts ensured that our every need was met.

    The only thing that could be improved was the decor as it was a little dated. However everything else more than made up for that and I would definitely stay there again.

    Great host - she was super friendly and helpful and was able to accommodate everything we asked for. Fantastic breakfast - the Eggs Benedict was excellent as to was the homemade bread and jams. Super location and parking - the location is superb - everything is within easy walking distance and the there was ample on site parking with CCTV security. Fab room - it was spacious, very quiet, clean and the bed super comfy.

    It would have been even better if the sun had been out.

    Great location, exceptional hosts, amazing breakfast. Room was comfortable clean and had all facilities available. Shower was great with an abundance of hot water all selection of soaps, shampoos provided. Phil and Ness greet you personally and do everything they can to make your stay the best experience. Ness adapted the breakfast to accommodate my dietary needs, and I didn't miss out on anything. The home made jam and marmalade is a delight in itself. There is a bar on the premises should you wish to partake, and nothing is too much bother. You are made to feel at home.

    Nothing! It was just as we expected, with the warmth of the hosts an added bonus.

    Hosts Ness and Phil were so very welcoming on our arrival. Our room was ready and we could book in straight away, although they already had said we could park there as early as we liked which was lovely. We had a beautiful spacious room with a view over Lynton. Breakfast was excellent and home made bread, jam and marmalade was a lovely surprise! A very comfortable stay, in a homely atmosphere, we hope to return sometime soon.
