Royal & Fortescue Hotel

The Royal and Fortescue Hotel is a charming haven, located in Barnstaple, England’s oldest borough. Originally a coaching inn, the building has been tastefully converted to become a delightful base for a golf escape in the south west.

Now owned by the Brend Hotel group, the hotel has lots of options on site and is in the heart of the town with a vast array of bars and restaurants that run close to the River Taw that splits the town. The location is also key when it comes to golf and is the perfect base for the likes of both of Saunton's Golf courses and Royal North Devon Golf Club as well as being the perfect mid-point when travelling down to Cornwall.

Brend Hotels, the leading chain in the region, is behind the excellent hospitality at the Royal and Fortescue, presenting a delightful collection of guest rooms. Every bedroom is complete with the necessary modern comforts, but great efforts have been made to retain the most attractive characteristics of the old coaching inn.

24-hour room service and satellite television are among the extremely attractive features in the Royal and Fortescue, which is the ideal Barnstaple hotel for a golf tour in Devon.

Guests at the Royal and Fortescue are welcome to make use of the health and leisure club at the sister property, the Barnstaple Hotel. Here you will find indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a gym, fitness suite, two saunas and a solarium.

Eat in style at the Royal and Fortescue – afternoon tea in the coffee lounge before a sublime dinner in the more formal restaurant.
