Advantages: Great views, lovely (and very clean) building, excellent hosts, close to town centre Disadvantages: None
The North Devon coast is, for me, one of the most fantastic places in the UK. There are lots of activities to do in the area including surfing, hiking, cycling, horse-riding, scuba diving, wildlife-watching, fishing, and exploring.
My wife and I have just enjoyed a stay at the Towers Hotel in Ilfracombe, which is an ideal location for visiting north Devon. The hotel is a spectacular Victorian-style building with the slightly-over-the-top architecture which could only work in a building of this era.
The interior is kept in-style with the overall building and is exceptionally clean and tidy. Even the Victorian features such as the high ceilings, covings and high skirting boards were in clean, good condition which must take a lot of work by the owners.
There is ample car-parking for all guests, and also a small bar and lounge area ...
Advantages: none, apart from politeness of the staff Disadvantages: I cannot really comment on specific criteria as I have not stayed there
Arlington Hotel, Ilfracombe Devon. I am afraid I have had quite a poor experience dealing with this hotel. Booked a room with a sea view months in advance with an online booking agent.
Received confirmation and map through the post pretty quickly from the hotel.

The receptionist was polite and said the hotel would allow our dog to stay for free, but obviously ...
Advantages: A haven of rock pools for the children to explore, a fantastic choice of gift shops Disadvantages: the beaches are mainly shingle
Ilfracombe is a seaside harbour town near to Barnstaple in North Devon. It can be reached by leaving the M5 at junction 27, and following the A361 until it terminates at Ilfracombe.
Ilfracombe is not a suitable place to visit if you are a lover of sandy beaches, as the sand is mainly shingle. However, the rocks are fantastic and a haven for sea life, which is great fun for the kids. Ilfracombe has been famous for over 150 years as a seaside resort, and still seems to be a very popular choice for tourists and holiday makers each year. I have visited Ilfracombe both as a small child with my parents, and now with my own family. Every time we holiday Devon, we always set aside a day for a visit.
There are various car parks throughout the town and the harbour area, and we normally park down on the harbour, and then stroll around ...
