Welcome to our pub

The Smugglers Rest is a family-run business situated in the pretty stone-built village of Mortehoe surrounded by beautiful countryside and within walking distance of the beaches and coves of the North Devon coast.

The owner, Brenda Guinan, runs the pub with her daughter Penni and they have been here in Mortehoe for four years. Opening daily for the lunchtime session, and again in the evening, the inn attracts a clientele of all ages from the local villages as well as seasonal visitors to the area.

The bar offers London Pride as a permanent real ale and a further, locally brewed ale as a guest in the summer months. Freshly prepared food is available with a varied menu selection that includes fresh oysters and other seafood. Meals can be enjoyed in the separate non-smoking dining room or outside in the rear garden when the weather is fine.
