Services and Information

The Bonnicott Hotel Lynmouth provides free Wifi. Staff members Cathryn and the hotel manager have their temperatures checked daily and take two lateral flow tests per week. The hotel is not suitable for the very elderly, infirm, or those with very young children due to steps and a ramp to negotiate to the hotel entrance.

“The Bonnicott's spot feels special; perched perfectly for sea views and exploring Exmoor, it's a place where you can settle in, especially with the tempting homemade meals I keep reading about. To me, it sounds like the kind of place where the staff's thoughtful gestures and local tips would genuinely make a trip. Definitely feels like a Lynmouth find worth checking out.”
