  • Arguably the best position in Lynton and Lynmouth.
  • At the river mouth, in the prettiest village in England
    •

    Stone built in 1882 for ship rescuing hero Captain Jack Crocombe,
    Tregonwell is an elegant Victorian stone built house at the junction of the East and West Lyn rivers, one of the best positions in Lynmouth. Snuggled amidst deep oak wooded valleys with sparkling waterfalls and cascades, it is surrounded by truly dramatic scenery.

    Free car parking and garaging is available to allow you to forget the car and discover at your leisure Lynmouth's beautiful features, the villages where Exmoor meets the sea.

    Tregonwell is a mere two minute level walk to the select shops of our olde-worlde smugglers village with enchanting harbour. A wide range of inns and restaurants cater for all tastes and pockets.

    Tregonwell hosts a beautiful tea garden, a real sun trap in which to sit and enjoy a famous Devonshire Cream Tea. Marvel at the magnificent scenery and pretty flowers while watching the world go by, with the relaxing sounds of the river's babbling in the background. Go on, treat yourself to our mouthwatering freshly baked scones with jam and lashings of farmhouse clotted cream - mmm, wickedly delicious!

    Open all year except Christmas, Tregonwell offers lavishly decorated standard and en suite rooms, all centrally heated with tea and coffee making facilities. Children are very welcome and a cot is available. Home cooked evening meals are provided on request.

    Beckoning you are the glorious silver and green canopied walks to Watersmeet, the Valley of Rocks, the Doone Valley, Woody Bay and Brendon. Tregonwell is an ideal base for more adventurous tours of Exmoor, visit Dunster Castle, Porlock, Selworthy, Horner Woods and ancient Tarr Steps, overall a stunning landscape. A short trip on the steepest railway in the world takes you soaring 500 feet to our twin village of Lynton, commanding spectacular views of our Heritage Coast, the highest sea cliffs in England. Gaze across the Bristol Channel to Wales, where a string of glistening lights appear in the evenings

    No stay at Tregonwell is complete without a boat trip along our rugged coastline. Perched above the crashing waves are nestling colonies of screeching gulls, razorbills and guillemots. A must is a visit to the mysterious Lundy Island, once a pirates' kingdom witnessing many a dastardly deed.

    After a Tregonwell full English breakfast it's the start of another wonderful day. With one of our packed lunches take a whole day to explore the quiet lanes with a rich tapestry of country life unfolding before you. A fine young stag tastes the early morning air. Blacksmiths shoeing horses for the local riders. Sheep being herded in the fields by alert sheep dogs. Herds of wild Exmoor ponies and cheviot feral goats on the horizon against an awe-inspiring sunset. An evening beside the cosy log fire in our drawing room for those cooler seasons rounds off a perfect day.

    So come soon, relax and enjoy it all with us.
    Come as our guests, leave as our friends.
