Top marks for this terrific first-floor apartment in a quiet part of Ilfracombe. Sleeping five in two relaxing bedrooms, it suits any family or friendship group keen to get out and about exploring this popular town’s beaches and amenities (within 1 mile). Alternatively, head to some of the many other surfing hot spots for watching, walking or even ticking surf lessons off your bucket list! Back at base, put your feet up and admire the tasteful decor and styling of this apartment which combines charming period features with modern comforts and design.
This bright and airy apartment welcomes you in with high ceilings, large windows and spacious rooms. Spend quality time together in the spacious lounge with its classic decor and ornamental fireplace. Cook as a team in the contemporary kitchen complete with a dining table for five' there’s plenty of room. Bedrooms are equally luxuriant affairs, with one king-size, and a double bedroom with an extra single bed, the latter offering lovely Torrs Park views. Both are elegant spaces with a calming feel, wooden furniture and ornamental fireplaces. Outside, the pretty, shared garden has a furnished decked patio, planting and lawns.
There’s a play area for younger guests within 100 metres of the house if they’ve still got the energy to burn. Ilfracombe’s shops, galleries, eateries and cafes are all within 0.5 miles. But really, it’s all about the beaches and Ilfracombe has a few! Wildersmouth Beach is grey sand and shingle – once popular with smugglers, it’s a sheltered rocky cove. Spot the unmissable cones of the Landmark Theatre behind it. Quaint Rapparee Cove the other side of town is lesser known but worth the effort. Or venture through the hand-carved tunnels at Tunnels Beach, culminating in sand and shingle beaches with a Victorian swimming pool refreshed by the tide.
