Take a family holiday in a gorgeous corner of North Devon. Westward Ho! is a charming village with everything you might need for a group of mixed ages and their dogs. You’ll be 50 metres from the beach, a great spot for surfing, paddling and sandcastles.

This property is a bungalow, with plenty of room for your group. Enter to find a kitchen/diner, sociable and well-equipped with a breakfast bar, full dining table and sliding glass doors to give a view of the garden. Continue to the lounge, a comfortable space where you’ll see matching sliding glass doors. There’s a family bathroom with a deep bath so you can soak after a surf. You’ll have three bedrooms: a super-king with an en-suite and two flexible rooms which can either be made up as Superkings or twins, as you choose. One of these also has an en-suite. There’s a rear garden, enclosed by a wooden fence, where your children and dogs can play on the lawn then trot to the patio for meals on the outdoor furniture.

Any surfer would love this property because of its proximity to the beach. If you’re a beginner, or need to hire equipment, there are surf schools around to help you out with whatever you need. Some also have paddleboard's and kayaks. If you prefer sea views, amble over to the Royal North Devon Golf Club (1 mile) to play a round, or explore Northam Burrows Country Park (1 mile), a SSSI with marshes and plenty of wildlife. Make sure you visit the Westward Ho! Sea Pool, just under 0.5 miles, for a swim with beautiful views.

The bungalow was so welcoming and everything you wanted was there, the beds and bedding was so comfortable. The location was perfect everything was within walking distance including the beach so saved money on car parking. My granddaughter was sad to leave and wants to go back to the blue house as do the rest of us. Will book for longer next time. Read moreExcellent Hide

Great property in a great location. It was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. Loved the blankets for the dog and he adored the secure garden. It was so peaceful to sit out there first thing in the morning with a cup of tea. The beach, shops, cafes, takeaways etc are a stones throw away and lots of lovely dog walks.

We had an amazing stay at Westwood Ho and this was due to the cottage of being such a high standard. The cleanliness was 100% and we could not fault anything at all. We would highly recommend staying at Ridgeway.

This is a wonderful holiday home, it has everything you could want. Its very homely and the beds are so comfortable and soft. The garden is fab for the kids and when it rained they played in the garage, they had so much fun. The gate at the back is great and easy to get on the park but very safe with all the bolts and padlock. Its in the best locRead moreation for everything, just be aware of the road with little ones, something that is out of the control of the house owner. I stood my grandchildren at the edge of the drive and explained the danger and that they could not pass the line with out holding an adults hand and this worked wonderfully. This was our second visit this year and I have already booked for next July. Thank you. Hide

This cottage is absolutely beautiful it has been modernised to a very high standard. It has everything you could possibly need for your holiday its like home from home. The cottage was immaculate when we arrived and we did meet the lovely lady that had cleaned it very friendly. In the garage (which is massive) they have a table tennis and footbRead moreall table which we did enjoy using, it was lots of fun. Just one thing to think about if you have young children and that is the road, cars can sometimes go quite fast up and down that road and because there is no footpath outside this could be a little dangerous. We have booked to go back in August and we are looking forward to it so much. Hide

Just came back from a wonderful week stay at Ridgeway. Ridgeway is located directly opposite the small Tesco and just up the road from the beach (1 min walk) which were both very convenient. On arrival the property was spotless and very well presented- with a folder full of all the information we would need. We stayed here as a family of 5 aRead moredults with 1 dog (German shepherd - so there is plenty of space for big dogs!) for a family birthday which was perfect. The bedrooms are spacious with massive beds which are comfortable which is always great! Plenty of storage with a wardrobe and a chest of drawers and a tv too. Only thing I would say is they could use better lighting as due to the windows facing the main area you cannot get ready with the curtains open. All 3 bathrooms were spotless, showers were powerful and the towels were actually big enough to wrap around you. The living area has a decent sized smart tv, and 2 very comfortable sofas a 3 seater and 2 seater with a footrest. The only thing I would say is could do with an extra chair in this area - especially if youre staying in a group of 6 as not enough space for all to sit otherwise. The kitchen area is well stocked with everything you need utensil wise, plenty of pans and mugs! The garden was perfect for our pup! She loved being able to run around the large area and bring us all the random footballs she found. In the local area we visited the few local amusements and shops as well as having a pizza at the pig and olive which we recommend. Also Atlantic Bay for fish and chips was beautiful! The ice cream from the place on the corner by ho barts amusements isnt the best so try another one of the many options. The other areas we visited are Bude, Ilfracombe, Lynton & Lynmouth and Clovelly. There is a shopping outlet called affinity in Bideford but that's it really for decent shopping in the area. Overall a fantastic holiday for our mums 50th birthday, hopefully we will visit again. Thank you Hide

Exceptional doesn't do this beautiful place by the sea justice. Everything thing you could possibly need and more from a home away from home. Not only is it gorgeous, its comfortable and practical too. Shops, pubs and restaurants are right on the doorstep. Sea views from all bedrooms. The flat garden was perfect for my old dog to plod around. ThereRead more were so many extras, like books for adults & children, board games, table tennis, foosball table, beach equipment, I could go on but then this review may never end. I've already recommended the place to many friends and family. We will definitely return again. Hide

Lovely property. Very clean and bright. Extremely dog friendly and with a few tweaks, could be fantastic! Just needed slatted blinds in the bedrooms to give some privacy without closing the curtains and some hooks on the back of the doors would be great! Would really recommend this property and we hope to be back.
