The hotel is beautiful, with lovely grounds, spacious rooms, and a comfortable bed/sofa. The food in the restaurant at dinner and breakfast was delicious. We had a good stay, but there were quite a few negative points. Service was very slow in general in the restaurant and my breakfast was forgotten about entirely. No milk is provided for tea in the rooms, which is frustrating after a long drive! I had also requested a twin room, but was given a double instead with no notification. Staff were generally helpful, despite these downsides, and we had a nice stay overall.

The grange is surrounded by beautiful countryside, it is quiet , striking property Our room and en-suite were huge and on the ground floor of the original house. There was plenty of parking close to the property. Breakfast was brilliant and nothing was too much trouble. Staff were very welcoming and helpful We stayed in room one , although huge and clean there were a couple of areas that needed attention , the curtains were ripped in places and one had come of the curtain track and the grout in the shower needed cleaning in places. Otherwise the room was spotless

The site of the hotel was excellent, well laid out and well kept. The restaurant staff were very pleasant helpful and efficient. The general house keeping for the hotel rooms was not good for this hotel. There was no attention to detail and gaps in room provisions were too many (no milk, no hand towels)

We stayed overnight in one of the Cottage Suites, which are detach chalets in the grounds. These consist of a large bedroom with adjoining bathroom. The first thing we noticed on entering the accommodation was that it was cold. Apart from that our first impressions were that everything was smart and clean. There is underfloor heating with a wireless thermostat on the wall, so we turned it up. After a couple of hours however it was still cold. On our way out we mentioned this to reception. On returning later we found that the room was too hot; the thermostat reading 25°C. We only wanted to warm the room up a little, but this was stifling. I think the thermostat was broken and in our absence the staff may have manually overriden the temperature. We soon opened some small windows, one of which just flopped shut. In the morning the temperature read 25°C. There was a large smart TV on the wall, but we couldn't get it to connect to the WiFi, so just ordinary TV was available. I found the lighting in the bathroom to be poor, even to shave by. Breakfast was pretty good and our cooked breakfasts were very nice. The orange juice, jam and yoghurts were nothing special though. There could also have been slightly more of a selection of fresh fruit. I think with a few tweeks the breakfast could have been excellent. The staff were helpful and friendly, but maybe there just needs to be a bit more attention to detail. I'd definitely go back, but it probably wouldn't be my first choice.

Short break

Great location for exploring the North Coast of Devon. For this reason alone we would recommend Kentisbury Grange. Restaurant was closed because they were having a new floor fitted these things happen but was disappointing however found a great pub for food, the Black Venus, a short distance away. Room was spacious and clean but was let down by the condition and fitting of the curtains!

Arrived at hotel to what seemed a rabbit caught in the headlights. Asked about food options to be told the kitchen was not operating. Asked about local options to be told there was a pub over 1mile away. Had to locate room in a maze of a country house. This hotel could be lovely but the staff need some serious customer service training

Kentisbury Grange is a stunning venue, our garden suite was clean, well equipped with a wonderfully large and comfortable super king size bed that we didn't want to leave. It's very conveniently situated for easy access to lynmouth to the east and woolacombe/Ilfracombe in the west with easy access. We had a fantastic couple of nights for my partners birthday and would 100% stay again. I didn't get their names but the two young ladies who were there for breakfast each morning were fantastic considering the hotel had issues with the kitchen because of a flood, which I will say I was notified of before hand by phone which I appreciated.

Disappointing

We stayed in the main house which needs reburbishment. Room was clean but needs some TLC. Window frames need attention. Breakfast was only just ok. Choice not great service slow and tables left uncleared. No management on site until 10.00 so unable to give feedback when we checked out.
