Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Devoncourt Resort is often chosen for getaways, thanks to its beautiful landscaped gardens and both indoor and outdoor heated swimming pools. Many appreciate the south-facing sea views, easily enjoyed from rooms with balconies, and the convenient 3-minute proximity to the sea and beach. While some found the sofa bed not very comfortable, the excellent breakfast in a large airy dining room with open sea views is consistently a highlight, along with the Sunday Carvery.

Relaxed stay

beach access helpful staff spacious room positive experience

The location offered immediate access to the beach through the garden. The staff provided helpful information about nearby dining options. Our room was quite spacious. I would consider staying here again.

The room decor was a bit dated, needing some refurbishment, particularly the carpets. it didn't significantly detract from the overall positive experience.

well maintained gardens sea venue leaking toilet constant issue

The gardens were well maintained. The venue is right by the sea.

The leaking toilet was a constant issue. I reported it three times, but the staff did not repair it. I had to empty a mug (left by maintenance) every couple of hours to prevent flooding.

The gardens offered quiet places to relax, the view of the sea was very nice. staff were friendly and always available. i especially liked the leisure facilities including the massage chair. It helped after a long walk.

the car park had small spaces, and it was often full! i had to park outside, inconvenient at times.
