Stayed here before Christmas for a weekend surfing North Devon. Laston House is a great looking building down a secluded little drive. Twin room was cosy. The couple who run the house are charming. We wanted to surf early so they offered to cook breakfast for us on our return closer to lunchtime. Great breakfast and touches like that make... More

Stayed recently for the second time at Laston House and highly recommend. Great, traditional house, well located, fairly simple but good sized rooms and awesome breakfast... but the stand out reason we'll be back is the hospitality, which is excellent. Really helpful and genuinely accommodating. Will be back More

Only stayed for one night but the place was clean, friendly and warm and the host and his wife were very happy to help with anything. The location was good taking 5 mins to walk to the harbour and having walked around the town quite a bit we were certainly happy with where we had elected to stay... More

Friendly and helpful host - greeted with a cup of tea on arrival. Old manor house style in quiet private grounds location with off-street parking. Nice view and short downhill walk to harbour area. Clean room and shower and great breakfast. Happy to recommend to friends. More

Really enjoyed a two night Autumn Break stay at Laston House. Warm and friendly welcome. Nice location in easy reach of the harbour area. Quiet and relaxing surroundings. Our room had good sea views and looked out onto the attractive gardens which surround the house. House is at end of a long drive giving feel of seclusion. Spacious room with... More

We stayed at Laston House in September and feel we were misled by the excellent reviews. Laston House is beautiful and the hostess was very friendly and welcoming but an awful lot more work and tlc is required before we would rate it as any where near excellent. We stayed in an unrefurbished room, with an avocado bathroom suite, unmatched... More

My enquiry for a room was politely and efficiently handled. We found Laston House easily using CoPilot satnav. The on site parking is a bonus. We were welcomed, and enjoyed coffee in the Guest Lounge before being shown to our room, Room 2, which is by the front door. The room was cold at 18.00 but the windows had been... More

I agree wholeheartedly with you, we have a way to go yet before we can be considered excellent on all fronts. We took on a very tired and out-dated hotel and are renovating rooms as fast as our finances allow. The room in question has got a pretty bad, albeit clean, carpet and it will be replaced at some point... More

Delightful accommodation, very friendly and caring host and hostess, easy walk down to (and up from!) the harbour. The elegance of Laston House is the first impression, after Greg's hospitable welcome, the size of the rooms is the second! On the doorstep parking, not detracting from the lovely garden is another bonus! Splendid breakfast promptly served. More

A beautiful building in a peaceful setting looking out to sea. A three day stay made special by very welcoming hosts Greg and Abi. Our room (2) on the ground floor had dual aspect windows looking out over the grounds and out to sea could not have been more special. A good quality english breakfast with ample tea, coffee and...

This beautiful victorian mansion is in beautiful grounds and has a sea view. We had a nice modern room on the first floor with sea views. The decor is modern with a tradtional twist so it doesn't detract from the house and is very nicely done. It's easy to imagine the life the house has had over the centuries and... More
