“The Old Smithy presents a remarkably well-appointed interior, feeling both spacious and thoughtfully equipped, a true home-from-home atmosphere. Its position in Lynton is undoubtedly a strong suit, placing you at the heart of things while still affording a sense of quiet seclusion. It strikes me as the kind of place that makes you reconsider plans to venture out, so comfortable is it within.”
