Sit on the balcony and gaze out towards the sea from this bright apartment at Woolacombe in Devon. Sleeping four people, the modern, two-bedroom, first-floor property enjoys an enviable position at the heart of the bustling, Devon village, less than 500 metres from the beach. Ideal for a family or two couples keen to explore this beautiful corner of North Devon, it is well situated for picking up the South West Coast Path, with its spectacular scenery, as well as for swimming, surfing and playing games on the wide, sandy beach.

Enter the property and climb a staircase up to the main accommodation. From the hall, wander through into the welcoming, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, where you can relax and lose yourself in the far-reaching views. Throw open the French doors in here on warm days to let the sea breeze in. Switch on the Smart TV in the evening, prepare tasty meals in the kitchen area and dine together at the table, breakfast bar or out on the balcony. Choose between the king-size bedroom, with its Smart TV and sliding doors out to the balcony, and a double bedroom, which looks out towards the coast. The bedrooms share the family bathroom. Make the most of your fabulous, outside space by taking a cool drink to the balcony or even breakfast, lunch or dinner. Find parking for one car with the property and additional spaces close by in public car parks.

Walk 2 miles from Woolacombe along the coast path to Morte Point, taking in the spectacular views as you go. Look out for Atlantic grey seals which often come close to the shore. Those who are ambitious can undertake an energetic, circular, 10-mile hike from Woolacombe to the National Trust’s Baggy Point, which is known for its breathtaking coastal vistas.

Lovely apartment. Amazing location. Sea view, balcony & parking. What more could you want! We only stayed for a couple of nights, with my mum and my toddler, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to come again. Really nice touch to have complimentary prosecco and biscuits too!

Very comfortable, well equipped, brilliant location in the middle of Woolacombe. Loved the balcony. Parking a bonus, unfortunately a few minutes away with an incline, able to park for an hour outside apartment. Would definitely stay again.
