The guy that said this was staying for one night and ended up staying for four.
So, come and see for yourself!

There is a coffee hatch too - serving quality brews.
Toss some money up to the ceiling.
Tracey, the publican will show you how.
The dining side goes to charity, the bar side goes to the maintenance of the machinery mile.
The staff are always friendly,
Sit yourself down on one of their unique bar stools and settle in for a while

the Ilfracombe Races are held annually in May, and it is a real, dinki-di bush meet. You are guaranteed fun - if not a winner.

This pub was chosen as the venue for the Inaugural Country Pub Camping Rendezvous, and what a great choice it was.
Tracy, the friendly publican welcomed our large group into the hotel warmly.
Meals were enjoyed by the whole group, and fun and games prevailed as the Ilfracombe Caravan Park Olympics were held at the same time. A couple of days of fun and games, making memories to last a lifetime.
This is a unique, tiny town and you would be missing out on a great experience if you just drive through.
