The Woodlands is a grand old house in the Torrs Park area overlooking the lovely town of Ilfracombe and very easy to access the coastal path walks from. Chris and Christine are friendly, helpful hosts and the full English breakfast well cooked and made using locally produced, quality products. Our room (11) was large and comfortably furnished with crisp white... More

We enjoyed our stay at this spotlessly clean B&B. Our room had lovely views of the garden. It was perfectly situated for visiting the town. We were staying because of a friend's wedding at Tunnels Beaches and that was a very short walk away, even in heels! The room was comfortable and excellent value for money. Breakfast the next morning... More

Stayed for just one night and even though the rooms were compact they were comfortable, spotlessly clean and slept very well indeed. The parking is a bit tight so if you can reverse down the drive do so as it may ease getting out again because there's not much room and the drive is very steep. That said there's plenty... More

We stayed at the Woodland Hotel (Ilfracombe) from 18th September to 20th September 2012. Very nice welcome from Christine and Chris, parking was a challenge (on a steep hill) but grateful to have a parking space in a convenient spot outside front door. Could not fault the quality of the food or service, probably the best breakfast we have had... More

Room 3 is very very small. The bathroom is ok (good shower) and the toiletries are very very nice. Unfortunately in the room there is space for the bed and that is it. We had large suitcases and that was a problem. Breakfast was very nice, freshly cooked. We did not get to enjoy the garden but it looked lovely.... More

Was a little worried when we booked and were given Room 3 which showed as being basic. Phoned to check that it wasn't how imagined but was told that they hadn't had any complaints.
