Breakfast was excellent. The room was spacious and clean. The property was well-located and we were able to secure an early check-in, which was really helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will look to book again!

Combe Martin has a great little beach for families but not really a lot else.
I love it because it has a great walk around the headland, and is a a good place to stay to visit other attractions in the area

Beautiful location for energetic walking!
Beautiful location for energetic walking! Lovely eating places and a strong sense of community throughout the village. We particularly liked the Pack of Cards for evening meals and the cafe overlooking the beach for sandwiches. We had great weather for all 5 days and the beach was much used by all ages. Kayaking, paddle boards were very popular and when the tide was in it was a very protected beach making it safe for young inexperienced swimmers.

Sheltered cove, great for SUP.
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.
It is located centrally in Combe Martin and a few minutes from the beach. We booked the room with a separate bathroom for our use only. The twin bedroom was comfortable, plenty of space for clothes etc. Tea/coffee facilities. With having a separate bathroom that was a good size with plenty of room and storage.
There was plenty of choice for breakfast and my request for gluten free was fulfilled.
Hosts were very friendly, informative and accommodating. It was unfortunate we had to cut the holiday short due to family illness.
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.
Very welcoming host. Excellent breakfast choices including Eggs Benedict and delicious croissants. The room had all facilities you need and a large selection of streaming channels on TV. We were only passing through the region but liked the hike to Blackchurch Rock and the visit to Dunster Castle & Cleeve Abbey. Ilfracombe is only a short drive away but preferred the quiet surroundings of Combe Martin.
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).
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.
Great central location. Beautiful and clean. Lovely, lovely hosts. Natalie and Martin were so friendly and we had home-made scones waiting for us when we arrived! Lovely and quiet, very homely. We couldn't have asked for me. Lots to do in Combe Martin, we will definitely be back.
I was greeted with a lovely warm welcome by Jane who told me all I had to know about the property to enjoy my stay. The house is located in a quiet area of Combe Martin and has the most splendid views of the harbour and sea. I sat on the bed and watched the sunset. Perfect.
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.
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.
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.
