"We really enjoyed our stay. We were walking the SWCP and were glad to stop earlier on this leg. (Just dont take the road to the lighthouse and then climb the scree over the hill: steep and dangerous). The room was excellent. Comfortable. Delicious dinner down stairs, and lucky for us on our night, a live singer providing a musical background atmosphere. She was lovely, and just the thing to elevate the evening to next level."

Top Shirwell Hotel Reviews

The Imperial Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great spot for a traditional English experience. The staff are fantastic and helpful. I recommend the breakfast option; it has a great hot menu, and you'll get much more than just the buffet table. Rooms are clean and have all the essentials. The area is very central. It certainly appeals to an older demographic. If you're fine with that, this is a wonderful experience. Well maintained and managed."

The Royal Hotel

8/10 Good

"On arrival, the staff were really helpful and polite. Parking was conveniently situated across the road from the hotel. The room and bathroom had a cosy feel with lots of character and was nice and clean. The beautiful sitting room was a lovely space to relax. We ate in the bar area and the food was very good, as was breakfast the next morning. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay there again."

The Dilkhusa Grand Hotel By Compass Hospitality

8/10 Good

"The hotel is a bit dated but the welcome was very warm and helpful, the room was clean, we literally wanted somewhere to sleep for the night and we only paid £59 for a large double room - could have paid slightly extra for a better view but we really didn't need that - we arrived in the dark and left early. Staff very friendly and helpful recommending places to eat etc."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Shirwell?

The best area to stay in Shirwell is within the village itself or in the immediate surrounding countryside, offering a blend of rural peace and convenient access to local attractions.

Shirwell village is quite compact, centred around the historic St. Peter's Church and the Shirwell Primary School. You'll find a few traditional country pubs and guesthouses here, providing a genuine taste of rural Devon life. The main road through the village, Shirwell Road, connects it to larger towns, making it easy to explore the wider area.

Couples looking for a quiet retreat will appreciate staying directly in Shirwell village. It offers a chance to unwind, enjoy leisurely walks through the rolling hills, and experience the slow pace of village life. Many guesthouses offer locally sourced breakfasts and a chance to truly relax.

For those who value expansive views and a bit more seclusion, the properties just outside the village, located in the Shirwell Valley, are ideal. These often include larger holiday cottages or renovated farmhouses, providing more space and direct access to walking trails.

When is the best time to go to Shirwell?

The best time to visit Shirwell is during late spring and summer, from May to September, when the weather is at its most pleasant.

During these months, you'll experience longer daylight hours and generally warmer temperatures, making it ideal for exploring the North Devon countryside and enjoying outdoor activities. This period is superb for leisurely walks along the Tarka Trail or visiting the nearby Exmoor National Park, where the landscape is in full bloom.

Couples looking for a romantic getaway will find May and June particularly appealing. The countryside is lush, and the tourist crowds are typically smaller than in the peak summer months. This allows for a more relaxed experience when visiting local attractions or enjoying a cream tea in a quiet village pub.

Families with children will find July and August excellent for their holidays. The warmer weather is superb for trips to the nearby coast, such as Instow or Westward Ho., which are just a short drive away.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

You can cancel your hotel reservation on Expedia, though it depends on the cancellation policy of your booking. Most bookings are refundable if canceled within 24-48 hours of the scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. If free cancellation is available, you can cancel directly through your Expedia account by logging in, going to "My Trips", and selecting your reservation. To find flexible deals, filter your search by "Fully refundable property" for hotels in Shirwell.

How much is the nightly rate at a Shirwell hotel?

Prices for hotels in Shirwell often vary, but you can find a great deal from CA $104 on Expedia. All sorts of factors affect price, such as the time of year or the days of the week you choose for your stay. Find the best deals by being flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for the cheapest rate.
