A really lovely B&B, with very friendly owners, gorgeous rooms and a fantastic breakfast. We had a great room with a sitting area and sofa,much bigger than a hotel room. The bathroom was very nice too. Thoroughly recommended! More

We stayed here for just one night on the way down to Cornwall. We were very pleasantly surprised by the large, double aspect room that was thoughtfully furnished with nice pieces. We had tea in the living room on arrival and then a good recommendation for dinner. It is also just a short walk into town. Breakfast was promt and... More

Having been booked in by some friends and having no previous knowledge of The Mount, we were greeted with tea in the lounge, and a very warm and friendly welcome from Heather The Mount is very easy to find, well signposted from the main roads, and with car parking available, is ideal for exploring Bideford and the surrounding area.

We have stayed in many B&B's an can only say that our stay at The mount was OK....our room, although very large was smelly!! And the corridor leading to room 6 was also a bit smelly! The decor was OK and the service at breakfast was OK. Margarine on the table at breakfast and cheap orange juice was a bit... More

It is a shame that nothing was said at the time of the visit. No one has ever previously commented on cooking smells and I can assure all guests that we always provide Tropicana or equivalents (never "cheap concentrates" ). Flora ("margarine") is provided as the healthy option, but butter is always available on request. More

We stayed at the Mount during July 2011 for a three night break. The Mount is a lovely charming house owned by delightful people, whom made us feel totally welcome and relaxed. Our bedroom was very well equipped with high quality bedding and fixtures and a single bed for our five year old son, providing perfect family accomodation. Fantastic breakfast... More

Stayed there for two nights so that I could visit Lundy on the day between. A great welcome, a good clean room with tea making facilities. Breakfast starts at 8am but when I told my host I would have to be away at 7.15am it was brought forward to 6.45am and I got the full breakfast. Also a good selection... More

This is a lovely B&B. We had an excellent welcome and were taken straight to our delightful room. The welcome was then extended to coffee and shortbread in the lounge despite there being tea making facilities in the rooms. Due to mobility problems I have great difficulty with stairs so Heather was able to let us have her one and... More

My wife and I flew to England from Switzerland to walk the South West Coast Path. Our schedule only allowed us to stay for 1 night which was a real shame as the place was full of character, the bedding was luxurious and the breakfast was the best we had on the entire trip - be sure to have sausages...

This is a family run and very welcoming bed and breakfast hotel. My daughter and I stayed here, sadly only for one night. The rooms are tastefully decorated with beautiful soft furnishings rather than the usual corporate style so many have these days. The Mount is situated in the town of Bideford and the local shops and the estuary are... More

So glad we found this place, the house and gardens are lovely and the room was absolutely gorgeous. Very near to the centre of the town but you wouldn't think so as it was very peaceful at night. Breakfast was good and our hosts were very friendly and welcoming, we would certainly recommend this place to anyone. More
