Brilliant location about 15mins to the coast. Beautiful views! Decent size indoor warm swimming pool, playground and games room included. Great for the children. Our cottage was fine for a couple. Very comfortable and well appointed with virtually everything you would need in a rental. I struggle to say anything negative about it!

A comfortable and well equipped cottage, located close to Ilfracombe and other North Devon attractions. The swimming pool, sauna and jacuzzi were excellent and so close to the cottage. We would love to go back.
