Each of our seven bedrooms are individually decorated to give them their own distinct character and charm and all have spectacular views out to sea. Bedrooms on the first floor are spacious with high-ceilings and large bay windows while second floor bedrooms feature all the comforts of home plus stunning views across the bay.
During the early 1800s, whilst the Napoleonic wars raged on the continent, those unable to make their Grand Tour to Europe opted for a 'staycation' in the West Country. The countryside around Lynton & Lynmouth served as a reminder of the route many would take through the Alps to Italy and so the fashion for building in the Swiss Style is to be seen in much of the local architecture.
We have compiled a list of local restaurants, in and around Lynton & Lynmouth, which we hope will suit a range of tastes and budgets. Most are within walking distance of the hotel and we can arrange for a local taxi to places further afield. Stylish, friendly and newly renovated, the Old Bank offers exceptional local food in an intimate setting.

As always, Rose and John make you feel very welcome. John your breakfasts are superb, they set you up superbly for the day. We would, recommend the Oak room, Old Bank, Vanilla Pod for evening meals. But! Good tip, book in advance. We can also recommend the Fish and Chips from opposite the Queen's pub, who kindly allow you to eat in there whilst having a pint or two. We will no doubt see you both again. Terry and Annette (Portsmouth)

Simply perfect. The picture is the view from our room. Well placed location, all rooms are clean and have beautiful sea views. Bed are comfy and tea and coffee is available in the rooms and refreshed every day. John and Rose are perfects hosts; friendly and helpful with hints and tips about what to do and where. The breakfasts are a real highlight.
White linen table cloths, tea, coffee, fruit juice, continental and full cooked breakfasts with vegetarian options all included. This was one of the best B&B experiences that I have ever had. Will definitely be back. 5 star review is well deserved.

The couple that own the hotle are lovely, the decor is dated english down stairs. Plenty of pictures and litlle bits and bobs to look at and take in. The room was really big and the bed was extremely comfortable, the bathroom was very large as well with a really nice shower. The room decor was really nice and the view of the sea is second to none.
The breakfast choice is traditional english, the full english is really nice and not too much or greasy like big chains can be. If your thinking of a couple nights away in a lovely hotel right on the sea i would definitely recommend this hotel.

I am so lucky to find this amazing place. It was my second time in the Chough's Nest hotel and I will return later. John and Rose are friendly and super helpful. The room is clean, English breakfast is delicious. Perfect location, a spectacular view and incredible nature sounds. This is an ideal place to escape from the city chaos.i
