great would highly recommend.
Pros:

Delicious breakfast, cooked to perfection. Jonathon was so lovely. Bed was really comfortable. Hotel was very clean for an old building. All staff very friendly and helpful. pool was spot on, didn't use outdoor one but had a look- very nice.

Cons:

didn't have a view of the sea, but still wasn't the worse view we've ever had and you get what you pay for.

Wondrous Woolacombe Bay.
Pros:

The location, with a wondrous panorama, was magical. The hotel had a glorious ambience and the room was perfect.
10 out of 10 all around.

Cons:

Absolutely nothing. Although the price of a breakfast was a little out of my price range.

Bathroom shower poorly designed for purpose. great shower, but water went everywhere due to poor design.
