Never tire of the splendid views when you stay at this enticing, modern cottage in Devon. Situated in rural surroundings, 1 mile from Lee and 2.5 miles from Ilfracombe, the welcoming, dog-friendly retreat looks out over the rolling fields towards the sea. Sleeping six guests, it has three bedrooms and a games room, as well as a garden and terrace where you can soak up the scenery.

Climb the steps up to the front door to enter the house, unlacing your walking boots in the porch as you go. Head into the lounge/diner to find huge picture windows that pull the views right inside. Light the wood burner in here on autumn and winter evenings and settle down to your favourite box set on the Smart TV. Wander through to the kitchen, which has an island and breakfast bar, to prepare tasty meals to serve up at the table in the dining area. Also close by are a utility room and a WC. The comfortable bedrooms at the property are also on this level: these include a king-size, a twin and a super-king-size, with zip-n-link beds that can be set up as singles instead if discussed in advance. There is also a family bathroom. Send the youngsters off downstairs to amuse themselves playing darts or table tennis in the games room. Spill out on to the terrace to light the BBQ and dine out in the fresh air. Watch the children and canine companions play on the lawn below. There is parking here for two cars.

Walk less than 1 mile to picturesque beach at Lee Bay, where you can paddle, swim and go rock pooling. Head into Ilfracombe to spend time at the famous Tunnels Beaches and to peruse the shops and choose between a great selection of eateries.

We had a fantastic holiday at Whitestone Farm - thank you! The views from the house and terrace were amazing! The house was beautiful - and had all we could wish for. It was a very comfortable stay. It was really good to have access to the south west coastal path via a footpath just up the track from the house. Would recommend a visit to MarwoodhilRead morel Gardens - a 25 minute drive from the house. It was enchanting. With a lovely tea room too! We hope to come back to Whitestone Farm again! Hide

First of all, Devon is overwhelming. The nature is extremely beautiful and the people are very friendly. The house offers a great view and contains all you need. Moving in and out was very convenient and the local support was easy to get, very friendly and helpful.

Also the window seals have blown around a few of the windows consequently blowing very cold air in. Also vista would have been better if they had cut the bush outside the main front window

We had a lovely weeks stay and made some lovely memories. The cottage is beautiful. Beds are really comfy. Everything was very clean. The view was beautiful. Could do with providing a parasol for shade by the outdoor furniture. Also the drive is quite tricky with the incline and the stones. We would stay again.

Stunning location set slightly back from Lee bay and village, perfect for exploring woolacombe and illfracombe. We really enjoyed the views and particularly looking out to Lundy island. Plenty of space in the property and beds were very comfortable but overall not very clean and felt unloved, disappointing for the price paid.

The views from the cottage are fantastic. It is well positioned for exploring the local coastline and area, especially if you like hill walking as it is situated at the top of a steep climb from the bay. We had a few issues with the heating but the owner was very responsive and quickly sorted it out for us. Beautifully clean, super comfortable bedsRead more and well fenced in garden for the dogs to roam around. Hide
