West Down View is a charming end of terrace cottage in a small hamlet of properties, set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. With an on-site pub, a fishing lake and a shared heated outdoor swimming pool, there’s a great deal on your doorstep. For days out, Woolacombe Bay, one of Devon's most popular beach resorts, is just 2 miles away and the rest of North Devon’s attractions and landmarks are within an easy drive.

Inside this delightful cottage, you can relax in an open-plan lounge/diner, perhaps enjoying breakfast at the dining table while you plan your day, or sprawling across the comfortable lounge seating while you watch TV or a DVD. Read your holiday novel while you have some chill-out music playing on the hi-fi, and in the evening, enjoy a drink or a snack on the shared lawn area at the front or rear of the cottage. At the end of a busy day, there are two welcoming, restful bedrooms; a king-size and a twin room.

Venture out to the Victorian seaside town of Ilfracombe (7 miles), where attractions include Tunnels Beach, a network of tunnels hand-carved in the 1820s, offering rock pools and a stunning backdrop for keen photographers. It is also home to an abundance of wildlife, including peregrine falcons, seals and even porpoises. The long stretch of golden sands at Woolacombe (2 miles), is perfect for family-friendly days on the beach, while Croyde (5 miles) and Saunton Sands (7 miles) are also within easy reach. Other family attractions in the local area include the Combe Martin Wildlife Park (12 miles), Exmoor Zoo (16 miles), and Watermouth Castle (9 miles).

What a lovely cottage with everything you need for a cosy and relaxing stay. The property is well cared for and everything was in excellent condition and very clean. The location was great - within easy driving access of the likes of Woolacombe, Croyde and Saunton Sands etc with their fantastic beaches. We followed the recommendation of a local pubRead more in the welcome pack and had a lovely meal at The Rock in Georgeham (need to book). We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would stay again in the future. Hide

A very pleasant and comfortable property in a quiet corner of the complex, pool is lovely and food wagon serves excellent fast food Location is great for touring the whole North Devon coast but is nicely out of the way
