This is a really nice old fashioned pub style accomodation but has a really good chef and therefore very good food. Slightly above the average price but well worth it. However there are other local options for dining. The room overlooked the bay and you could see surfers in the distance along with the small harbour. The famous Lynton to Lynmouth railway is just round the corner and well worth a trip for the spectacular views. Will definitely go back at some point.

Quirky

Lovely quirky place. Super bar and dining room. Loved the view, the uneven floor in our room, the quaint stairs, the helpful staff. The shower was wonderful. The only negative is that the bed was too narrow. I think it was a basic double and we're used to having king or superking when we stay in a hotel. Not massively important, and it didn't spoil our stay, but would have liked a vegan full English breakfast option. Hope to stay again in the future.

Anniversary break

We booked a two night stay at the Rising Sun. Our room was lovely, very clean, the bed was extremely comfortable & bath was incredible, well worth a soak. The food was very nice, although quite expensive if I am honest, I would expect to pay prices like that in a restaurant, not a pub. The staff were very friendly, although appeared under pressure at times.
