History
Report
Our stunning Grade 2 Listed building was originally a grand private manor named 'Litchdon House', home to one of Barnstaple's wealthiest families. In 1898, it became a 'family hotel' and was extended over the years to become the iconic building it is today. Exactly 100 years after first becoming a hotel, the Brend Family purchased the property from 'Regal Hotels' in 1998.
