"Laston House is a beautiful Georgian property. The room we stayed in Room 6 was huge with plenty of seating and a nice sea view. The owners were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was full English which I could not fault, Great value for money and just a 2 minute walk was The Thatched Inn which does good food. Would definitely not look to stay anywhere else if we return to Ilfracoombe."

"We had a lovely stay at this property. A nice walk to the harbour, you have to expect the hills! The House had everything we needed for our stay and a lovely well equipped kitchen. Good communication with hoste throughout. The parking space at the house was tricky to get to if no spaces are available at the front of the house. Overall a very enjoyable stay"
