Eating Out

Close to home we are spoilt for choice, as both pubs in Georgeham village are wonderful for different reasons. We would highly recommend pre-booking  in advance of your stay to avoid disappointment, as they are very popular and get booked up.

The Rock Inn

For a great gastro experience we can recommend The Rock Inn, a centuries-old Devon pub with a great atmosphere. Families are welcome. The conservatory at the back of the pub offers a lovely bright feel to your dining experience. It has a charming owner and front-of-house team so you are guaranteed great service. To book a table (recommended) call 01271 890322 or just pop in.

The Kings Arms

This pub is great for a cosy, relaxed environment to eat and drink, sit outside in the sunshine on the decking, watch a match, or listen to live music (Friday nights).

Newcoast Kitchen

This lovely restaurant in Croyde owned by our friends Matt and Nicole is a must visit. We love their food, their personal service, their style and the way everything is so thoughtfully prepared. You are in for a treat here but make sure you book as there are limited tables and it is super popular.

The Porthole Café

This fabulous café is situated between Putsborough and Woolacobe just up above the beach on the footpath. It’s a great stop if you walk from Pickwell down the footpath to the Porthole then double back in a loop via Putsborough. They serve delicious lunches, cakes, drinks and local ice cream. Just below the café there is a clearing of logs on the National Trust land to take your drink and admire the view.

Something Special

NC noel corston (Woolacombe)

A trail-blazing, multi-award-winning restaurant based in Woolacombe.  The chef/owner Noel, is a dad at the school with us, and his gorgeous wife Nora provides fantastic table service. They offer one fixed tasting menu which is built around the seasons, reflecting our immediate North Devon environment at any given moment in time.  

This one needs to go in the 'treat' night of your holiday as it is definitely one for the grown-ups, a truly one-off personal and unique experience. But we can help with babysitters!
Guests dine at the Chef's Counter which accommodates 8 and there is only one sitting per evening so be sure to book well in advance.

Thomas carr 1873 (Ilfracombe)

Awarded a Michelin Star for 2021 and situated in Ilfracombe’s former Victorian police station, 1873 brings you the same talented team who won a Michelin Star for Thomas’s first solo venture, Thomas Carr at The Olive Room. Located a stone’s throw from Ilfracombe’s beautiful working harbour, you can expect to see local quality fish as a core ingredient on 1873’s ever-changing 6 Course Taster Menus. Again this is one for a ‘treat’ night, but surely you deserve a treat and you will certainly get one here!
