“This dog-friendly inn, a true coastal getaway, is near Saunton Beach and the North Devon Coast, and distinguishes itself with king-size bedrooms, free WiFi and unique dining featuring Mexican and American dishes; I think the weekly specials like the two-burrito Wednesday are a nice touch. Its central Braunton location is ideal for those seeking a comfortable and engaging community atmosphere. A solid choice for those prioritizing location and community.”
