This guest house and restaurant offers affordable accommodation very close to the small sandy beach in the heart of Ilfracombe's Heritage Harbour, on the South West Coast Path.
The Harbour Lights dates from 1895 and was purpose built as a small The Harbour Lights at the height of Ilfracombe's Victorian heyday. Many of the original features remain, such as the central staircase with its antique mahogany banister and the sash windows.
The guest house has a 60-seater, licensed restaurant on the ground floor. It specialises in Appledore fish and seafood, Exmoor lamb and beef and Ilfracombe lobster.
