Short Stay in Lynton

We had an amazing 2 night stay in Lynton and couldn’t have picked a better guesthouse . Drew and Penny are fantastic hosts and clearly care about keeping guests happy , they have a great knowledge of the local area and nothing was too much trouble The house interior looks fantastic and is a credit to their hard work renovating the property . Breakfast is to die for , it was all freshly cooked and local produce , we had no complaints and the dining room had a really pleasant atmosphere . We would recommend to anyone going to Lynton for a short stay and we will definitely be going back to South View on our next stay in Lynton . 10 out of 10 ! Will

A great place to stay

Very friendly welcome from Drew and Penny. Great location. Fabulous breakfasts especially the fruit salad. Parking behind the house up a steep lane was not the easiest. On street parking up to 12.00 and after 4.00 would be my preferred choice next time unless I get better at hill starts!

Tired and wet walkers!

We arrived from the Coast Path wet and cold and Penny and Drew were very welcoming and friendly. We were given a room with a bath which was just what I needed! The room was clean, warm, comfortable and beautifully decorated. The bed was so comfy - I was asleep by 9 and slept for nearly 10 hours! Breakfast was delicious and again, we were made to feel very welcome. Thank you very much!!

Pleasant stay

Pleasant stay in a comfortable guest house, new owners only been there for 4 weeks but are very nice and friendly. It wasn't the best cooked breakfast we've ever had but there was a good choice, fresh fruit salad was very nice. Pre-order breakfast the evening before. Good selection of tea, coffee, hot chocolate and biscuits in the room. Beds are comfortable and we slept well. Lynton and Lynmouth are very picturesque, quaint and quiet at night but enough places for a quiet drink in the evening.

Lovely cosy spot with friendly owners

Lovely spot in the beautiful Lynton, lots of choice for breakfast (try the compote!), clean, comfortable room with lots of different teas and hot chocolate to choose from. Exceptional attention paid to making sure everything was clean due to current pandemic. Bryan, the owner and his wife were fantastic, always there with a smile and gave us plenty of information on the area and couldn't do enough for us.

Southview Guest house was the best we stayed at on our whole week trip around the south west of England. Byran was a brilliant host. By far the best breakfast we have had in a guest house. The room was incredible with a view of the town and hills. It was truly the most magical night spent in the quaint little town, Lynton. Bryan's recommendation of the coastal walk was the highlight of our whole trip. I could not recommendation Southview enough. It was perfect.
