The Captain’s House

After a The Captain’s House 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.

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.

The Captain’s House 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.

Open all year except Christmas, The Captain’s House offers lavishly decorated standard and en suite rooms, all centrally heated with tea and coffee making facilities. Children are very welcome with well behaved adults!

The Captain’s House 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!
