Peacefully tucked away moments from an impressive Victorian harbour, this contemporary townhouse boasts both stylish and on-trend interiors, plus spectacular panoramic views over the harbour and to the sea beyond.

Elegantly styled with wonderful contemporary touches everywhere you look, this townhouse is effortlessly spacious with three floors to discover. Children will love playing in the snug room on the ground floor, or adults can use this space when a moment’s peace is needed. Following the staircase up to the first floor, you’re met with the open-plan kitchen/living/dining room, flooded with natural light from the patio doors framing the magnificent seaside view. Enjoy a film night on one of the comfy sofas around the Smart TV or whip up a locally sourced meal in the well-equipped kitchen, to be enjoyed around the stylish dining table. Invite the outside in and soak up the surrounding scenery on the gorgeous balcony and dine alfresco long into the evening. As day turns to night, retreat to the second floor to find three wonderfully bright and light bedrooms, with the master featuring a stunning Juliet balcony, maximising the superb sea views.

The seaside town of Ilfracombe boasts a historic harbour, with Damien Hirst’s statue Verity standing guard at the entrance, plus plenty of independent cafes, shops and ice cream parlours to keep you busy. Join up with the South West Coast Path from the headland to be rewarded with dramatic clifftop scenery and views across the bay and out to sea. Explore the area at its best watery angle by hopping aboard a boat trip from the Victorian harbour half a mile away to spot plenty of wild sea life along your journey. Pack a picnic and take a trip over to Lundy Island on a steamer to explore the unique island renowned for its puffins.

Very well stocked property with plenty of plates, mugs etc. Apart from the gulls (take earplugs!), very quiet location within a few minutes walk of the coast and even closer to the high street. Comfortable beds and couches with a downstairs area with seating too with books and games. Access under the arch with a car isn't for the faint-hearted but Read moreOK with care in a smaller car. 250 deposit returned within the stated timescale. Hide

The cottage is very well equipped and had everything we needed. We had a toddler so found the travel cot, highchair and stairgates very helpful. There was a smell of dog when we arrived but it is a dog friendly cottage so not unexpected. We opened the windows and that helped. The entrance to the courtyard is very tight and only a small car can passRead more through comfortably. The garage is also a tight fit. The location was ideal for us and only a few minutes walk from the harbour. Hide

Modern, and well decorated house. Close work to sea front, parking is awkward if you dont have a small car. The house has everything you need, well equipped kitchen.

Perfect place to stay, clean, light and airy and comfortable. Great views to sea. Lovely welcome pack, everything thought of for our comfort. Entrance a little tight to courtyard but our car fit perfectly in the garage so no worries about parking. Would highly recommend!

Really lovely and reasonably priced property just a minute from the sea front. Very quiet location (apart from the seagulls!). Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
