Spring Breaks In North Devon

Spring is arguably the best time of year to visit the North Devon coast. You can enjoy the best of North Devon, with coastline, gardens and Exmoor National Park beaming with new life and spectacular colour, without the crowds. Whether you are into walking, cycling, surfing, shooting, riding, visiting a historic site or art exhibition, or simply relaxing with some good food and a drink, what better place to book a few days away than North Devon.

In our eyes, Spring starts at the beginning of March on Shrove Tuesday. We celebrate this in our Brasserie with our famous Chicken and Ham Pancake starter and for the day, Crepe Suzettes. If you’re staying and dining with us the Crepe Suzettes are on the house with any two-course meal*

The Carlton is surrounded by stunning seascapes, beautiful beaches, golden sands and quiet coves that lead the way to a day of exploring and discovering everything that makes Ilfracombe special. Our team can recommend some of the best hidden beaches to visit, along with some of the best walks around the area for a spring stroll. We’re a dog-friendly hotel too, so don’t forget your four-legged friend for some great walks!

The Carlton’s location, close to the centre of town and Ilfracombe harbour, means that guests have a huge choice of things to do from the hotel doorstep, whether the emphasis is on fun, activities, nature, food or culture. The harbour is the starting point for boat trips and other water-based excursions, and plays host to the striking Verity, donated to the town by the artist Damien Hirst.

The town’s cinemaLandmark Theatre and numerous galleries provide entertainment programmes featuring film, theatre and the arts.
