We loved our stay at the cottage and the dog very much enjoyed the little lawn area. The weather wasn't great for most of our stay but we had a cosy time inside. Took some walks down to the beach and explored the surrounding areas.

This is a fantastic property, had everything you could wish for, even cake baking! It was warm when you needed as we visited end October, but also can sit out on the veranda and enjoy the Sun. Beds and sofas were really comfy, really clean and tidy with views of the sea, cant recommend enough.

We've stayed at The Lookout six times and always look forward to visiting Westward Ho! and having the benefit of staying here as a base. The house is always spotless and very comfortable with plenty of equipment. The well equipped house and I really do mean well equipped is second to none. The sunsets from the French doors looking out to Lundy IslaRead morend are amazing in the summer. There is just so much to do here in Westward Ho!. Walking, surfing, swimming, restaurants, little coffee places, shopping in nearby Bideford, amazing scenery, pubs, Rib boats, cycle paths and much much more, you won't get bored for choice here.
