    Lovely views across Illfracombe. The big bathtub in the bedroom was a nice bonus too. A lovely, spacious apartment set in Illfracombe in a quiet part of town. Great location for getting to other parts of Devon and close enough to town you can walk around. The property was well equipped with everything we needed for our trip. The bed was very comfortable one of the best I’ve slept in. Would recommend to family and friends and stay again if in the area.

    The room was very clean, it wasn't advertised as en ensuite although it was. The staff were friendly, there was lots of choice of breakfast and my order was taken upon check-in. There was plenty of milk and extra tea bags for my room. . It was perfectly located for me right by the SW coast path. It was peaceful and quiet at night. I would stay again if in the area. The fresh fruit salad at breakfast was simply the best I have ever had in a hotel/guest house!

    Beautiful House and great location. We were the first to stay in this property as a holiday let so everything was brand new and spotless. The garden was lovely and very private. Very quiet area. Ilfracombe within easy walking distance, Woolacombe just a short drive and a lovely park just up the road is worth a visit. Would definitely book again. Dog friendly.
