We stayed here last year for a couple of days, this time much longer and were not disappointed. Penny and John are an excellant double act and had us in stitches at times. We hope to stay again before Christmas as we are expecting our first grandchild. Moreover if you like food this is certainly the place to stay. More

I stayed here last summer with a small group that I was taking around Devon and Cornwall. I fell in love with the area a few years earlier and was happy to find Mellstock house when wanting to make a reservation. John and Penny were perfect hosts and made us all feel so welcome and comfortable. The food was excellent... More

By far the best B&B i've ever stayed in and better than any of the 5* hotels, John and Pennie were excellent hosts. I won't consider staying anywhere else in Comb Martin. Evening food and breakfasts were fantastic! More

Mellstock House is run by a very nice couple. The rooms are nice- from both of our rooms we overlooked the nice garden with green hillsides in the background and the sea on the right. It was almost as if we were at home. There where plenty of good books toö lend and read and information about hiking-routes were avaible.... More

I stayed at Mellstock House from Christmas Eve to the day after Boxing Day. Penny & John made me feel so welcome I instantly relaxed despite being on my own. With a small number of guests and their unique laid back approach it was like the best family party ever, the food was fantastic and plentiful, the room comfortable and... More

We recently stayed at Mellstock House for 4 nights. We stayed in the suite with a bedroom and separate sitting room with tv. Penny and John were very welcoming and really went the extra mile to ensure we enjoyed our stay. Car parking was at a premium but John was happy to move the cars around so that wasnt a... More

I stayed here early July while walking the south west coastal path. I liked it so much that I stayed an extra couple of nights. Penny and John are welcoming hosts who go the extra mile every time. The optional evening meal is very good value and the fact that it has a licenced bar adds value. The room was... More
