The Port Light Hotel is somewhere I would have no hesitation in recommending to anybody - particularly those with a four legged fury friend! The welcome from Sean & Hazel is second to none - they go out of their way to make your stay as enjoyable as possible and also give the freedom to make yourself at home with... More

We took our two dogs, who, as soon as they get out of the car and go through the gate seem to know where they are ,We as always received a very warm welcome by all... More

Although we have not stayed at this hotel I feel we should make people aware of their deposit policy. As dog owners we were looking for a New Years break, that would enable us to go away with our dogs. The hotel we normally stay in was full, this is The Blue Ball Inn, near Lynton. This is a beautiful... More

We respond to clarify the true facts regarding this booking: I myself spoke to the writers wife. I explained fully the cost, what it included and that we did not charge for pets. I also explained that as she was bringing 3 big dogs I was unsure whether to let her have the room as it was one of our... More

We stayed here for our first wedding anniversary in September and wanted somewhere that we could take our three dogs. This place was very clean considering the amount of dogs that stay here. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Our room was large and there was plenty of room for the dogs to sleep on the floor. Breakfast was... More

We've stayed at the Port Light Hotel around half a dozen or so times over the past 3 years - each and every time ourselves and our dogs have enjoyed a pleasant and enjoyable stay. The rooms are good sized and we've stayed in a few - they have adequate facilities although could do with some upgrading. The beds aren't... More

Spent two nights here on a dinner, bed and breakfast basis. I hadn't read the reviews before now and I'm not at all surprised that the majority of them are very favourable. If you compare like-for-like for this category of hotel, this establishment proved to have been an excellent choice and ticks all the boxes for customer satisfaction as far... More

Port Light sits in a beautiful location on Bolberry Down. We have been visiting since 2005 and have always enjoyed the warm welcome given by proprietors Sean and Hazel. Our Labrador, Brandy, unfortunately no longer with us, loved his walks on Bolberry Down and the surrounding area. Port Light is truly dog friendly! The bedrooms are clean and comfortable. Some...

There could not be a more special location - right on the cliffs near Hope Cove in Devon and sitting on National trust land with direct access to the coastal path. This hotel is straightforward, unfussy, very informal, yet it delivers what it promises. Clean, comfy bedrooms, brilliant views, friendly efficient staff, delicious food. No, it's not elegant and minimalist... More

This was the first time I had taken my (recently new) dog on holiday and I was not disappointed. Although there must have been 9-10 dogs on site you would not have known. Lots of easily accessible walks right next to the hotel with plenty of space. The staff were very friendly and welcoming in particular Jamie who helped us... More
