  Latest Ilfracombe Review

  In recent years I have returned to Ilfracombe on a numberof occasions because I just love the feel and atmosphere of the place. It's vibrant, fun and energetic yet it also has a wealth of history including grand Victorian houses and hotels and a picturesque working harbour. Incidentally, some of the best fish and chips I've ever tasted were caught off Ilfracombe and served in one of the many restaurants and cafes.   - Tracy345
