Great position overlooking Sandy Cove. Good base for exploring the area. The balcony doubles on the 2nd floor give fantastic views. It's worth booking one. The Cove restaurant provides a wonderful background setting, with some amazing food being produced. Mouth watering at the highest level. Thank you, guys. A quality indoor swimming pool (towels provided from reception) with great changing facilities. All in all, it was a delightful stay, which I extended because of all of the above. Great value for money, and the staff are all so polite. Make sure you stay here, you won't be disappointed.

Absolutely stunning views, this makes the hotel stand out. Peaceful place, the ocean view very beautiful. Staff are friendly, restaurant has nice food with good choices and vegan/vegetarian options. Terrace outside has plenty of seating, nicely done with fashionable chairs and comfortable outdoor furniture. Room was not very big but had nice interior, two seats indoor and outdoor as well. Nice coffee maker and tea facilities.

We had the classic room with balcony and as it is stated- with a large double bed. Our bed was a queen size of 140cm wide which is really too small for a room like that. Plus if the bed is turned 90 degrees, you could have the stunning view from the bed. It would require to remove the heater though- which could be replaced by a flat electric panel at another wall in the room. But that is just my suggestion. Seating was in front of dresser, not very handy.

Incredible views, well decorated rooms, phenomenal receptionist, super helpful and friendly staff throughout the hotel, amazing food and great cocktails, also lovely to see the brides and grooms taking photos on the sea balcony. We loved it so much we booked a 2nd night whilst there! There's also lovely scenic walks either left or right out of the property, with a choice of a beautiful quiet seaside town (with the best ice-cream I may have ever eaten) that has shops, cafes, restaurants and also a lovely walk along to some caves if you wanted to explore a little. Then there's a harbour with a lovely boat café, and also a beach within walking distance, we just couldn't get there due to a landslide, but from another viewpoint it looked lovely.

Can be noisy on the evenings due to the wedding guests leaving dogs in the hotel rooms alone, which caused them some distress and made them bark/cry, along with general drunken arrivals back to their rooms. It didn't detract from our stay though, just something to note as it is a busy venue full of people having a great time for their special day. Parking can be quite tight to get into, especially if you're in a camper van like we were, but there's lots of it!

Great view, comfortable room, very good breakfast, very helpful and friendly reception staff.

The location is stunning. We were lucky enough to get a room upgrade to a sea view room and it was incredible. Looked out onto the lovely headland around the bay. The food was delicious. Breakfast was really good with a wide range of choice. Staff were friendly. Bed was comfy!

Everything was great but we did feel that the interior of the hotel could have done with a touch up of paint. It didn’t hinder our stay here though and we will definitely be returning.

Lovely that on arrival we were informed we had a room upgrade to a sea view... Wow it was an amazing view! The views from the room, terrace, restaurants etc were all incredible. Even better than advertised. Beautiful picturesque area that allowed for a great photoshoot! Flowers in bloom, lovely sun and backdrop. Can't ask for anything more. Cocktails were very tasty. Staff at reception were great and welcoming. Atmosphere throughout was great. Very lively, music playing, people of all ages having a good time.

Poached eggs for breakfast. Honestly it must have been the worst poached eggs we have tried. So overdone the yolk was hard and the white rubbery. I'll definitely order the full English next time 😁. One restaurant worker was very cold and killed the atmosphere a fair bit. But everyone has their bad days. The food for dinner was okay. It's classified as fine dining but only the portion sizes represent fine dining. The food was not bad but not great either.

The view from our balcony room was incredible! Apart from some ongoing building work the grounds are kept immaculate. Our room had a lovely new shower room. Every member of staff we interacted with was friendly. The service at dinner was fantastic, the staff are a credit to this hotel.

The sound proofing in between rooms, and some of the communal areas could be updated but the hotel is obviously re-investing with the ongoing building work.

The setting on the North Devon coast is stunning! Sandy Cove Hotel is in the perfect location to experience this part of the country. Even though some work for terrace updates was going on during our stay, it never distracted us from the gardens and views. The room was modern and comfortable with everything we needed, including an excellent restaurant. Already planning a return.

No complaints!

Amazing staff, beautiful location, very tasty breakfast but not much of continental breakfast choices, .. great shower, but make sure to have your own toiletries

I wish there was a small fridge in the room..also water in the room was only on the first day, so make sure you have some for the rest of your stay..comfy bed but not king or queen..we like to cuddle and we found this two single beds joined together uncomfortable
