I stayed with my husband for 2 nights in one of the Superking Deluxe en suite rooms and the whole experience was wonderful and also excellent value for money. Lewis and James could not be more welcoming and the style and beautiful decor is outstanding, along with the breakfast quality. Thank you so much for making our weekend break so special through what you offer at the Earlsdale, truly exceptional.

Great location to walk around Ilfracombe from and would recommend costal walk, stopping at the harbours 11 The Quay - Wine Bar & Cafe, superb wine, food and service and lunch at Lucia's Pantry on Flore Street, also excellent food and service.

Wow!Wow!Wow! Lewis and James perfect hosts. We are in our sixties and seventies could honestly say that Earlsdale is the best bed and breakfast we have stayed in. Would definitely recommend if your planning a stay in this area.

Lewis and Jim are just the most wonderful hosts. We received a warm welcome and little tour of the fabulous bar area. Our room was beautiful with everything we needed, right down to some delicious home baked cookies. A lovely touch. The whole weekend was cosy, relaxing and the food was absolutely sublime. Nothing was too much trouble and we would highly recommend a stay at The Earlsdale.

Lovely coastline walks - Ilfracombe to Woolacombe is about an 8.5mile walk & it's easy to get a bus back. Lee Bay - Has a nice little pub Ilfracombe - Italian restaurant, Giovanni & Luca's has decent food and friendly staff.
