Great base for staying whilst attending a friends wedding. Comfortable room and very good food, staff very friendly and had saved a parking space for us as the restaurant was full and there were no spaces left. Very beautiful area.

The Sawmills is a really excellent venue. The food options were amazing, it is the best breakfast I’ve ever had and the rooms were a good size and clean! I have already recommended staying here to friends and family who are planning to visit the area, and we are planning a trip to come back just to stay here again! The staff were really friendly and helpful. It was an absolute delight to stay here and an all-round great experience.

The Sawmills was very near to the wedding venue that we were attending. It was quiet and very comfortable. We only ate breakfast there but it was excellent. The only small downside was that the bathroom was very small, but very clean and well appointed

Really lovely staff, and a lovely room. Good value for money. Our only gripe (minor) was not having the room serviced during our stay, which meant running out of toilet paper - aside from this, the pub/restaurant is really cosy, the setting is beautiful, breakfast is delicious, and the staff were brilliant. Would stay again!

We have just returned from a one night stay at the Sawmills and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to stay in the Combe Martin area. Our room was lovely, spotlessly clean and very stylish with a small but very adequate en suite bathroon. Bar and outdoor seating areas also lovely. We weren’t very hungry having eatenearlier whilst we were out and about but did order nachos to share which were delicious and more than enough for the two of us. The bed was honestly the most comfortable hotel bed we have ever slept in and the room was so peaceful, we had a really good nights sleep. In the morning we went down to the bar for our breakfast, again one of the best b&b breakfasts we’ve experienced. All of the staff were lovely, thank you, we will definitely be returning.
