THE RISING SUN HOTELlynmouth
The Rising Sun Hotel is
steeped in history with oak panelling, crooked ceilings, thick
beach-stone walls and creaking uneven floorboards. It was in one
of its rooms that R.D.Blackmore wrote several chapters of his
West Country classic Lorna Doone. A most important feature of the
hotel is Shelleys Cottage (pictured below) so named because the
famous poet P.B.Shelley is widely believed to have spent his
honeymoon there with his 16 year old bride Harriet in 1812.
Shelleys Cottage has lost none of its
romance and now consists of a double bedroom with half-tester
bed, sitting room, private garden with quite spectacular views
and is ideal for those wanting something extra special.
An award winning 14th Century thatched smugglers inn overlooking a tiny picturesque harbour and Lynmouth Bay with its stunning backdrop of the highest hogback cliffs in England, and situated on the edge of the Exmoor National Park, where herds of deer, wild ponies and birds of prey roam free.
