The Ness - A Grade II listed inn with seaside views, award-winning dining, and historic charm

The Ness, a Grade II listed inn on the South West Coast Path in Shaldon, features stunning views over the Teign Estuary. The ornately finished 19th-century building, originally owned by the Clifford family, displays nautical memorabilia and references to its smuggling past. Guests can choose from nine bedrooms, including a Premier room with a freestanding copper bathtub, all equipped with Smart TVs, digital radios, and tea/coffee facilities. The Ness House serves award-winning Badger cask ales and a seasonal menu with dishes like House Lager Battered Fish & Chips and signature sourdough pizza cooked in a wood-fired oven. Nearby attractions include Ness Cove Beach (0.5 km), Shaldon Botanical Gardens (0.5 km), and the Smugglers Tunnel. A continental breakfast is available each morning at The Ness.

Pros

The historic building features nautical decor and a coastal ambiance.

The on-site restaurant serves locally sourced dishes, including wood-fired sourdough pizza.

Premier rooms include freestanding copper bathtubs and estuary views.

Located directly on the South West Coast Path, ideal for hiking and seaside walks.

Cons

No on-site parking; guests must use a nearby public car park.

Limited dining options within walking distance beyond the hotel's restaurant.

“The location certainly stands out, particularly the rooms with balconies overlooking the sea. I appreciated the themed interior and the attention to detail, with little touches like the copper bath and the nettle beer adding character. The staff seems genuinely welcoming, creating an atmosphere that is both helpful and relaxed.”
