Dining

The Beach Hotel is home to the award-winning Galley restaurant, where a theatre kitchen lets guests watch their food being prepared. Complimentary breakfast is included in the room rate and emphasizes locally sourced produce, served from 8 am to 10 am. The bar offers a selection of drinks and a designated smoking area, and the kitchen uses local products as part of its sustainable practices.

Rooms

Many rooms provide extensive views of the Bristol Channel or the town, along with a flat-screen TV and complimentary toiletries. All rooms include an en-suite bathroom with either a bath or a shower, and fully accessible rooms with hoist systems are also available. Standard double and deluxe double categories are available, and each room is non-smoking with key-access security and heating.

Leisure

The hotel's seafront position gives immediate beach access and proximity to water sports providers such as Channel Adventure for kayaking and kite-surfing. It lies on the outskirts of Exmoor National Park, which offers numerous walking and cycling trails, as well as quiet beaches and secluded coves. A drying room and equipment storage area are available for guests who bring their own gear for mountain biking or hiking.

Pet-Friendly

The Beach Hotel offers dog-friendly accommodation and supplies pet bowls and a pet basket in the bar. Dogs are welcome in the bar and outdoor areas, and the seafront location provides direct access to the beach. The drying room and equipment storage are also available to guests with dogs for drying towels or walking clothes.

Family & Business

The hotel provides family rooms, children's meal options, and board games for in-room entertainment for families. Business facilities include meeting and banquet spaces that can accommodate up to 40 guests, with the apprentice-run team providing service. Additional on-site amenities include a fitness suite offering personal training and free parking for a limited number of vehicles.

“Its position directly facing the sea, with the added charm of the steam railway nearby, creates a genuinely appealing setting. The staff here consistently demonstrate a warm attentiveness, and the breakfast, particularly the Eggs Benedict, makes for a delightful start to any day. What truly stands out, however, is the hotel's exceptional dog-friendliness, making it a welcoming haven for all members of the family.”
