The Red Lion Hotel, majestically perched in the heart of Clovelly, is a testament to refined hospitality amidst the raw beauty of the North Devon coast. This 4-star establishment seamlessly marries the quaint charm of its historic surroundings with modern luxury, ensuring guests experience the best of both worlds. Residing in a fishing village that has preserved its authenticity over centuries, the hotel promises views of the pristine harbour, where traditional fishing boats sway gently to the rhythm of the tides. Inside, the Red Lion Hotel boasts rooms that blend rustic aesthetics with contemporary comforts, each offering a tranquil haven after a day of exploration.

The allure of Clovelly extends far beyond its picturesque harbour. Steps away from the Red Lion Hotel, the village's cobbled streets unravel, lined with historic cottages and interspersed with artisan shops. Guests can immerse themselves in the village's rich maritime history, learn about its time-honoured traditions, and even witness the age-old practice of donkey transportation. The village's elevated position on the cliff offers panoramic views of the Bristol Channel, and on clear days, the distant Welsh coast. For the more adventurous, the South West Coast Path beckons, offering exhilarating hikes along one of the UK’s most scenic coastal routes.

Reaching the Red Lion Hotel is part of the adventure. Given Clovelly's unique preservation efforts, motor vehicles are restricted from the main village, ensuring it retains its timeless charm. Parking facilities at the top of the village and transportation means, including the aforementioned donkeys and sledges, add to the unique experience. While the seclusion is palpable, it's also the hotel's strength, offering a retreat from the hustle and bustle of modern life. Whether it's indulging in fresh seafood delicacies at the hotel's renowned restaurant, venturing into the depths of maritime history, or simply soaking in the serenity of the surroundings, a stay at the Red Lion Hotel in Clovelly promises memories that linger long after the visit.
