the stairs with a 15 month old and no baby facilities at all no safety for a baby low bathroom window was open when we were introduced to the room this was not highlighted by the manager
very old fashioned facilities no high chair for the baby bedclothes smelt as if they hadn’t been washed from previous occupant - no listing about facilities or breakfast times. was 5 mins late for breakfast the manager refused to give us our breakfast. I explained we had no indication of the breakfast times nor were we informed of the times

The Varley House is a little outside of town in a quiet neighborhood. Rod is an attentive host and has an outstanding service from the arrival to special requests, as I wanted to send extra luggage home. The shower was grand, the room is spotless and inviting. I'd definitely stay there again and can warmly recommend.

Nice hosts, on the ball with things, run a well kept and smart ship.
Friendly and good recommendations of area.
Very plentiful and tasty breakfast.
Beautiful garden on front and decent parking options in area.
Nothing particular, would have been beneficial if Netflix or Iplayer was available to use as a guest on smart TV but nothing to worry about, just a nice option.

Host was very helpful, couldn't have asked for better service. Breakfast was plentiful and great choice including pre requested gluten free bread

Welcome extremely good, friendly and professional. Comfortable clean well thought out room.
Wifi not brilliant but to be fair was informed that this was the case for this room when I checked in. Wifi downstairs where there is a usable room is fine.
To get to the main attractions of Ilfracombe it is a short car journey rather than a walk.

Breakfast was very good.
No chair or table near a mirror for when using hairdryer.
The walk up the steep hill from the town/harbour area was not easy for an older person. This should be made clear in the online information
