The views / position live up to (exceed) everything described / evident in the briefing. The apartment is well equipped, beautifully clean & warm (given a polar wind was blowing)! Ideal location for Ilfracombe but be prepared for the long climb back up - not for the able-bodied only!

The view from both balconies was absolutely spectacular, across the sea !! A very easy 10 minute walk into town and the Harbour. Shower was fantastic and the ensuite was spacious, too. The heaters worked very well and seemed to be on all the time (unlike a lot of other places we've stayed during our 9 week holiday in the UK, where the heaters never seem to come for very long). The washing machine was a great asset for us and we were able to dry clothes quickly in the "laundry room" as the heating/hot water service backed onto it so it was always very warm in there. A drying rack was even provided which is very handy for travellers. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals for ourselves when we wanted to. We loved this apartment and Ilfracombe and would highly recommend. Thank you for a wonderful stay!! Five stars ***** We do have just one constructive suggestion to the Owners - speak to your cleaners, specifically in relation to the kitchen. A lot of the cupboards were dirty and cooking utensils, crockery, pots, pans, etc. just felt "greasy". We ended up cleaning some of the cupboards ourselves and put all the items through a hot wash in the dishwasher. Otherwise, the rest of the apartment was spotless.

Very quiet, no noise from other appartments . Views outstanding. Highly recommend to everyone. Only issue for us was the mattress was very uncomfortable also could do with a blackout curtain at other window in main bedroom due to light mornings.
