We stayed at Soar Mill Cove last year on a B and B basis. We didn't eat in the restaurant as we prefer to have the option of having our main meal at lunch time or in our room. The room service meals were very good and the breakfast as good as anything we've had elsewhere. Lovely room with a... More

It is always a pleasure to return to Soar Mill and turn the corner at the bottom of the lane and see that wonderful view, knowing that as soon as one arrives at Reception it is like coming back to stay with friends. Keith and Jenny ( and the rest of the staff) ensure that there is always a warm... More

We had stayed at the hotel 15 Years ago, and my 50th Birthday was celebrated in the ideal surroundings. Room was amazing, food excellent and surroundings spectacular. Thank you to Keith and the team we shall be returning again.

Our second visit to this lovely family run hotel was even better than the first time. Great genuine welcome, scones and clotted cream (a old family recipe we were proudly told) home made raspberry jam - so good we bought a jar to take home. Our room with really pretty garden view was perfect for us as we travel with... More

We were returning to Soar Mill Cove after a four year break and were delighted to find that the standard was as good as we remembered. The staff were very welcoming and quickly attended to our wishes. We dined both nights in the restaurant; and would heartily recommend the cheese souffle when it is on the menu. Also, the flambe...

After working long hours in London I really can’t think of a better place to escape the city. With the beautiful scenery (I saw some deer on my first morning), friendly staff and great food it really does have the ability to flush the stress of every day life away. I had a massage at the spa whilst my fiancé... More

We are a family of 3 and we stayed in the hotel in April, during the school holidays. Soar mill cove itself is beautiful and the views from the hotel , in good weather and bad, are amazing. The staff were very friendly and pleasent. That said, the hotel was disappointing, very expensive for what is on offer and the... More

Im going back and that says it all. Staff friendly. Rooms good. Food good. Restaurant staff good but need training to make the dining experience flow. Room listening service. Five minute walk to beach. Its very children and dog friendly and that's a rare thing. Some parents like to share their children from 6.00am until 11.00pm. You may find it... More

Thank you for your constructive praise and suggestions.A concise and sensible review that will be taken into consideration. As we get to know our guests we build up a picture of their loves and loathes including room preferences. My favourite room is 15, but then its not everyone's, the majority of old customers opt for 23 and some only come... More

From the moment we arrived the staff particularly the assistant manager, were extremely friendly, most helpful and shared a great sense of humour with us. Our room (Jenny Wren) was lovely, quiet and had a beautiful view out towards the cove. Athough the bathroom was somewhat out dated and the shower a little tricky to operate, the room was clean,...

Seeing guests enjoying their stay without the old fashioned pomp and ceremony so associated with 4 star hotels is a pleasure. The bar is a bit of Urban fun in our rural Devon location. Jenny Wren is so called as my wife Jenny designed this room, it is a pretty room and a nice location with lots of space. Housekeeping... More

We have just spent an amazing weekend at this beautiful hotel to celebrate my parents ruby wedding anniversary. We had two family rooms with sea views and my parents stayed in 'Jenny Wren' again with beautiful sea views. All the rooms were beautiful and being an interior decorator myself I am quite judgemental about furnishings etc! From the moment we... More
