Lovely old, quaint inn in beautiful countryside. Water pressure was low, but the hot water when it came was scalding hot. The food was good but would have liked more seafood choices.. Delicious steak and ale pie, and blackberry meringue dessert. Breakfast had good options for a hot meal or cold buffet.

Blue Boar Bliss
Our stay at the Blue Boar was very comfortable and welcoming particularly as we had a dog.We had a lovely sized room with very comfortable beds and beautiful white crisp cotton bedding. The bath was large with piping hot water- lovely to relax in after a days walking. The food was exceptionally good in the evening and the breakfast was plentiful with a good variety of cooked options. We are definitely going to return when we are in the area again.

Excellent location to the moors, the East Lyn river and Lynmouth. The Bly drawback is the uphill walk back to the hotel after a day of walking the area.
