Fantastic place

Review of Varley House
5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 15 Jul 2024
What a wonderful place! Rod is a fantastic host, very friendly and helpful, the room was clean and spacious, with lovely views. The cooked breakfast was delicious. Location is spot on, you can walk down to the harbour in 10 minutes (make it 15 for the way back, as the last bit will be a bit steep, but that gives you the fantastic views). We'll definitely be back!

My parents and I stayed at Varley House for 4 nights. I would definitely recommend staying, the breakfast was well cooked and tasty, the hotel is spotless and both Rod and Helen are great hosts. Rod is happy to recommend places to eat and visit.

As a frequent female solo traveller, I would be happy to stay at Varley House on my own and feel safe and comfortable.

We stayed for 1 night en route to Lundy. Very clean, quiet and comfortable with a delicious breakfast, plenty of free parking and a well designed, spacious lounge to relax in. The owners are friendly and welcoming and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

Room tip: Some rooms have a sea view so ask for one of those.
