The New Inn Hotel lies at the heart of Clovelly, and has welcomed visitors to North Devon since the 17th century. It is an excellent choice for a family holiday or a romantic short break.
The building has seen many changes, and Victorian photographs show the signboard hanging from a cottage on the other side of the cobbles – this was the main body of the inn until 1914. During restoration work at the time, three cottages in Back Lane were taken over and converted, and now form the bar.
Charles Dickens stayed at the New Inn in 1860, and wrote about Clovelly in his magazine ‘All the Year Round’, giving it the name of “Steepways”.
Stylish en suite guest rooms:
The eight comfortable en suite rooms are light and airy, and because the inn is an historic building, each has its own unique character and personality. The rooms are elegantly decorated in the Arts and Crafts style made famous by William Morris, most offering panoramic vistas or sea glimpses across the waters of Bideford Bay. Three rooms open onto private balconies with a delightful view up the street.
