Score Valley Country House  

Tucked on the edge of Ilfracombe in North Devon, set in a peaceful valley just 2 km from the town centre and close to Ilfracombe Aquarium, Ilfracombe Harbour, the Verity statue and Barricane Beach. A handy base for Woolacombe’s sandy beaches, the South West Coastal Path and Exmoor.

A licensed, husband-and-wife run guesthouse with eight individually furnished rooms and a relaxed, friendly vibe. Rooms include flexible zip-and-link beds to switch doubles into twins; some rooms accept dogs on request (dogs not permitted in the breakfast room). The property sits in pleasant grounds with streams — keep that in mind for very young children.

Complimentary full breakfast served daily, a cosy bar/lounge, terrace and garden, plus a children’s playroom and picnic area. Free self-parking and complimentary Wi‑Fi across the property. Bike and kayak storage make it a strong pick for adventure or family-friendly breaks — wake up to valley views and easy coast days.

Complimentary wireless internet throughout and free on-site self parking for guests.

Hearty complimentary full breakfast each morning and a bar/lounge for drinks and unwinding after a day on the coast.
