“A wonderful place to stay”

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Green Rooms for 3 nights in May and had a wonderful time. Lyn and Phil gave us a warm welcome and are the perfect hosts. The B&B is in a great location near the beach and village and has parking. Our ensuite room was lovely - spotlessly clean, spacious, comfy bed and with nice modern furnishings and decoration. The breakfast was fantastic and lives up to all the reviews. The choice is very extensive and I had something different each morning. The homemade bread and jams really make it extra special! I can't recommend a stay here highly enough.

“Wonderful - a perfect B&B”

Just arrived back from a three night stay at this excellent b&b. A very warm welcome, excellent food, chat and location - and the room was brilliant as well. 5* breakfasts - great homemade fare, good variety and excellent black pudding; all coupled with the latest surf report!
Phil and Lyn are the perfect hosts, and Rocky the dog is very welcoming too - recommend it highly.

“Fabulous B&B close to beach and centre of Croyde - highly recommended”

My boyfriend and I have just returned from Green Rooms B&B where we spent the August bank holiday weekend. Lyn and Phil made us feel welcome right from the first email. We stayed in the small double room which has a large private bathroom across the corridor. Our room and the bathroom were very nicely decorated and impeccably clean throughout. The breakfasts were AMAZING. We tried the full English and the smoked salmon/scrambled eggs and the pancakes special looked lovely. The homemade granola was delicious too! Phil and Lyn were very knowledgeable about the local area and gave lots of recommendations. If you are there to surf, there's a room at the back of the house where you can store your board/wetsuit. The B&B is a 5 minute walk from The Thatch pub which is a great place to visit for a meal/live music. In the other direction the beach is about 5-10 minute walk (depending whether you're carrying a heavy surf board or not!) I would 100% recommend this B&B and would love to return.

“CLEAN, FANTASTIC FOOD, GREAT LOCATION, LOVELY OWNERS, RECOMMEND”

I am always nervous about staying at B&B's and we normally stay in 4 star plus hotels, however having discovered Croyde did not have any and we were meeting friends we booked this B&B after seeing the reviews on trip advisor. I am so glad we did.

Rooms are clean, owners are very welcoming and friendly, food is better than many a hotel I have stayed in. Fresh, made to order, variety and perfectly cooked. Gorgeous!

With only 3 rooms you are well looked after.

B&B located only few minutes walk from village and beach.

Decoration is not old fashioned and fuddy duddy like most B&B's.

Will return. Do not hesitate to book!

Only tip would be to bring hairdryer! Although I am sure they would have found me one if I would have asked!

“Wonderful hosts, great location”

Myself and my husband have just returned from a fantastic extended weekend in Croyde. Green Rooms is in a perfect position within close walking distance to the beach, coastal paths and village centre. Although we did not have the luxury of an en suite bedroom our private bathroom opposite our bedroom was perfect and even had the added bonus of a bath, much needed after a 12 mile hike to Woolacombe and back! Breakfast was fantastic with fresh fruit, homemade granola, the FEB for those that wanted as well as daily specials, of which the pancakes were to die for, a great send off on our last morning. The Little Pink Shop at the end of the road is perfect for hiring our body boards and even the rain could not keep us out of the sea. Lyn, Phil and Rocky (the pooch) were the perfect hosts and we cannot wait to return.

“Excellent !”

I stayed here for four nights with my 11 year old son and would highly recommend. Our hosts were lovely, the breakfasts fab and the area perfect for a family break. A long time since I stayed in a b&b and Phil and Lyn made it a perfect break - thanks ;)) 

Jane and Jamie – July 2011

 

“Fantastic, friendly, we will be coming back”

Me and my girlfriend stayed in the private room upstairs with the en suite bathroom. Phil and Lyn were so friendly and welcoming and made us feel right at home.
The room was comfortable, clean and very modern. The beds were really comfortable!
The home cooked breakfast every morning was great and there was lots of variety, with a different special everyday, home made jams etc. The French toast being a personal favourite of mine!
Great location, five minutes from the village and ten from the beach. I would recommend this to anyone.

Adam – July 201

 

Just a quick note to say thank you for your hospitality. We had a truly memorable time in Croyde and your breakfasts lived up to their reviews! We will definitely be coming back to stay again - Sophie wanted to go surfing today shame we don't have the amazing beaches in Hove! 

Miriam, Paul and Sophie - July 2011

 

"Brings some fresh style to Croyde - a great find!" 

We took advantage of a mid-week special rate of £60pn and were delighted with this new-ish player in our favourite surfing destination. A large, contemporary room with gorgeous view and excellent power shower (not found elsewhere in Croyde!). Really friendly hospitality from Lyn & Phil, and Rocky the ferocious cuddle dog. Breakfast options were extensive and all excellent and here's another vote for the granola! Great sausages too, and good coffee. Useful and convenient wetsuit and surfboard area, and Phil's daily surf report was something to enjoy. We've booked to go back in a couple of weeks.

Lynn and Andy - June 2011

 

 "Awesome!"

We loved Green rooms! The owners Lyn and Phil were super friendly and the property is beautiful! A short walk to the beach and the shops, the rooms have everything you could want and the attention to detail is brilliant. The shower and lock up room for surfboards were an added bonus. We loved the beautiful big bathroom and the skylights throughout. Breakfast was the best too. With a huge variety to choose from including the home made porridge and freshly made bread. We left with very full stomachs! We would recommend this to anyone and will definitely be returning.

“Such a relaxing place to stay, comfy beds and fabulous home-cooked breakfast”

Such a comfortable place to stay. Lynn and Phil were great hosts offering friendly ,helpful but discrete help and service. Lots of little things to make the stay comfy like fresh milk on request for tea, homemade breakfasts - the granola was wonderful and the cooked breakfast was substantial. There were homemade jams and a daily breakfast special such as pastries or pancakes. There are only three rooms and we took over all three for a local wedding. The rooms are very fresh and clean, the beds comfy and the bathrooms new. The sloping roof in the big upstairs room caused occasional problems. One room is not ensuite and is a small double, but the big private bathroom directly opposite makes up for it. None of the rooms had chairs in them which I sometimes missed. Very polite friendly dog, well trained and does not encroach on the bedrooms or dining room. I gather they are very supportive of surfers with store areas etc but we did not get involved with that. It is less than a mile to the beach and there are pubs/shops and eating places even closer in short walking distance. It was very quiet. I really recommend this as a proper family run bed and breakfast.

“Superb”

What can I say? Great place. Lovely rooms. Very nice. No complaints at all. Lyn and Phil are the perfect hosts. Rocky (dog) very friendly when he is allowed to meet the guests.

Bill and Ronnie – Feb 2011

 

“Perfect”

Basically, I wish this place wasn't so nice as it's going to keep getting good reviews and next year I won't be able to get a room there!  But praise should be given where it's deserved.  The room was lush, clean and quiet.  I'm now thinking of doing my own loft conversion to match.  Breakfast was amazing, hospitality was top notch (we even got a daily surf report from Phil).  Perfect for surfers or just a quiet weekend.

“Excellent B&B for Croyde”

Excellent B&B, wonderful hosts. We will definitely be returning again to this very clean and comfortable B&B.  The home made granola I had at every breakfast is delicious.  Thank you for the secret family recipe, though I have not quite perfected it yet.

Sept 2010

 

“Definitely Recommended!”

Our stay at the B&B was great! The owners were so friendly and easy going which helped in making us feel so welcome. The house in a short walk from both the beach and the town centre - so location is bonus! And as others have already mentioned, the breakfasts are amazing! Who can say no to home made bread and granola. =)

Kaz – Sept 2010

 

“Would Really Recommend!”

Having just come back from a lovely stay at the Green Rooms in Croyde, I just wanted to say how lovely the B&B is! A very laid back friendly couple and a really gorgeous house. Everything is new, clean and modern. Also the breakfasts are simply the best!

Kat and James – August 2010

 

“Great hospitality, food and location”

Lyn and Phil have a beautiful bungalow which provides exceptional accommodation.

The breakfasts are full and varied, well cooked and presented.

You will be made very welcome and comfortable.

The Green Rooms are very well situated for Croyde village and just a short walk to the beach.

You will not find better.

Roger - July 2010

 

“Lovely”

Fab B&B, lovely modern rooms and bathrooms. A great location with our fave beaches of Saunton and Putsborough being very handy. Phil and Lynne were patient knowledgeable and friendly hosts. We ate out at the The rock as recommended by Lynne and it was superb (best steak ever) and had a lovely cream tea at the National trust tea room at Baggy point. Other highlights include surfing and a fab shellfish fish platter at Morthoe shellfish. Kids enjoyed meeting Rocky the dog. The breakfasts were very, very tasty and relaxed with the daily specials adding interest to an already varied selection.

“A great place to stay, with welcoming hosts and a great location.”

Brilliant - we would recommend to anyone. Lyn and Phil welcomed us into Green Rooms where the rooms were recently tastefully decorated, very clean, fresh and comfortable. En-suite and bathroom great too.  Breakfasts were also wonderful as described by other visitors. In fact we choose this accommodation because of the excellent reputation on Tripadvisor of the breakfasts and we were not disappointed! It was great to have an alternative to cooked breakfasts. Storage space for boards and wetsuits if required.  Green Rooms is very well located between the fantastic beach (with surfing, volleyball, rockpools, sandy beach with facilities) and the village. The village itself has everything a good holiday village should have - ice ream shops, bakery, post office and general store, toy shop, surfing shops, surf schools, pubs, restaurants, fudge shop, art gallery, public toilets and thatched cottages!  Delightful. Croyde is a great base for surfers, walkers and families too.  We would definitely go back and stay there - can't wait.  Loved Green Rooms, loved Croyde, loved Devon!!

Perfect location for a great break.”

Couldn't recommend Green Rooms high enough, I think it only opened at Easter this year and everything is immaculate and gleaming. Our hosts were thoughtful and helpful and we even got sun for 3 days but I'm not sure I can credit them for that! Our group took over the three rooms, all were great but would particularly recommend the upstairs room up in the loft, great views and lovely breeze but I did hit my head a couple of times against the sloping ceiling. Location is good too, 5 mins to town and maybe 10 to the beach.

"Wonderful place to stay, can’t recommend it enough!”

The Green Rooms are perfectly situated for Croyde. The owners strike the perfect balance of being welcoming but not intrusive. The breakfasts are utterly delicious and the Pancakes with Strawberries were the best I have ever tasted.  The rooms are very comfortable and clean. They have clearly been recently renovated in a modern style (none of the horrible kitch i have seen at other Devon B&B's!), with the bathrooms decorated to a particularly high standard.  The price is very reasonable and I would have no hesitation in recommending this B&B to anyone.

Sally and friends, June 2010

 

Thank you Lyn and Phil for a really lovely stay at your B&B, extremely impressed with the room, the food and the price. Well worth every penny and will most definitely be visiting again!!

Lisa and Giles, June 2010

 

I just wanted to say thanks again - you have a lovely home and such a fantastic location - the bed was sooo comfortable and I had one of the best nights sleep I had had in months, followed by a very more-ish breakfast! I really didn't want to leave so no doubt you may see us back!

Kiki and Stu, May 2010

 

Many thanks for your wonderful hospitality and lovely accommodation, it truly felt like home from home. Perfect location too, just right for walking off dinner and strolling down to the beach.

It’s always a pleasure to stay in Croyde and such a wrench to leave. Look forward to returning soon.

“A very friendly and comfortable B & B perfectly located between the beach and the village.”

This new B & B is run by Lyn and Phil who have spent the last year converting and modernising their lovely bungalow. The rooms are spacious and well equipped and very comfortable. We were on a weekend surfing course so it was great to be positioned mid-way between the beach and the village. The breakfasts were delicious, we particularly liked the daily specials. There is a room where wet suits can be hung out to dry. Lyn and Phil are both keen surfers so they were able to give us plenty of useful advice. Croyde Bay is situated between two other stunning beaches, Saunton Sands and Putsborough. We will definitely be booking with this B & B again.

“Excellent B&B with young, friendly owners, fabulous breakfasts and no granny-decor in sight”

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Green Rooms B&B.  The owners were young and really friendly and helpful. Location was fantastic as it was a short walk from the pub and the beach so you get the best of both worlds. They are indeed very green. The B&B uses solar panels for heating and a lot of the breakfasts are either home made or home grown. The breakfast specials are highly recommended and our home made pancakes with strawberries and maple syrup were to die for!

It was refreshing to stay in a B&B that was so clean and had lovely contemporary decor. There were no flowery curtains or dodgy carpets in sight. We'll definitely be going back again.

“Exceeded my expectations”

Lovely clean rooms. Welcoming people. Fantastic food.

I think you guys are under-selling yourselves.

Oli, April 2010

 

“Best breakfast ever!”

Fabulous B&B. Welcoming & hospitable. Wow breakfasts! Lovely clean rooms. Used the surf board storage, would fit bikes in too. Easy stroll to the beach. Abundance of great pubs and restaurants in the area, some within easy walking distance. Great surf too! Highly Recommend.

Lorna, April 2010

 

"Amazing B&B with beautiful breakfasts and fantastic hosts !”

 We had a brilliant time at this B&B. We stayed in the double room with private bathroom across the hall. Room was comfortable and attractively furnished. Phil and Lyn made us feel very welcome and we were very sad to be leaving at the end of our break. The breakfast every morning was superb and the homemade granola was lovely (I was very excited to see pancakes on the menu the first morning of our stay). Croyde village is less than a 5 minute walk away where you will find pubs, shops and ice cream ! All surf spots are a short drive away (apart from Croyde Bay which is a short walk from the accommodation). Brilliant to find that The Green Rooms has surfboard and wetsuit storage which was a bonus. We visit Croyde regularly and will definitely stay here the next time we venture down west. Thanks to Lyn and Phil for a memorable stay.
