Holiday Cottages In Woolacombe

  Mount Rose is a large, well equipped and comfortable house suitable for extended family or group stays. We especially liked the decked outside seating area with comfy sofas and a lovely view down to the sea. The house is about 30mins walk to Woolacombe beach - although the walk back is uphill so be ready to climb back up after a beach day out! Two sitting rooms and two TVs worked well for us. And the kitchen and dining area is large with everything you need to self cater, including an extra fridge and drinks chiller which were very welcome. Beware the steep driveway which we found challenging. We loved Woolacombe beach, cycling the tarka trail, a walk to see "Verity" in Ilfracombe, walking the coastal paths from Croyde to Baggy Point and to Crow Point, sailing trip fishing for Mackerel from Ilfracombe, and a day at Arlington Court National Trust. But we would recommend swerving the aquarium at Ilfracombe - it is tiny and takes less than 10 minutes to see everything in it - not worth the money in our view.

  We thoroughly enjoyed our time staying at Mount Rose. The instructions on arrival were clear and the host had left some welcome gifts which were very well received after a long journey! The property itself was spotless and very spacious, the furnishings in the bedrooms and lounge were very comfortable and modern and there are lovely views of the countryside and sea views from the balconies. The garden is also lovely and we made use of the BBQ during our stay. There are some lovely places for walking / to visit nearby, Woolacombe is only a 15 minute walk and Lee, Ilfracombe & Combe Martin were no more than a 20 minute drive away which made the accommodation at Mount Rose ideal for us! We would highly recommend this property for families or groups wanting to stay in North Devon.

  Great property, the steps up to it from the road weren’t a problem and the car park space was close enough.

  On arrival we did question what we had booked, we noticed that the front windows were dirty (there had been storms, but the house keeper could have wiped them over) and the patio furniture was very rusty, but once inside things improved immensely. We very much enjoyed our stay. However, we found getting the temperature of the shower in the bathroom difficult to control and the wall bracket holding the shower head had one screw to hold it in place, so if you held the shower by hand the wall bracket would turn over. We also found the water temperature to the kitchen sink variable. After a short burst of hot water it quickly ran to like warm. A colander would be useful. None of the above particularly affected our stay, but worth noting all the same.

  Fantastic property in a great location. Great walks from the property to the beach and coastline. Re cleanliness we found property dusty, cobwebs around the lights which looked as if they had been there a while. Floor wasn’t hoovered. Fridge was a bit dirty. Trying to drive onto the road from the drive why was a bit scarey because you do not have clear sight on the right. There is bushes over grown which obscure the road. If this was cut back it would be safer. Can imagine may put people off. Also back gate into garden is in the wrong place. Should be at the side of the property. Meant we had to leave the gate unlocked which means any one had access to the back garden. Overall we had a great time.

  This is our second visit to Mount Rose, we love North Devon and all that it has to offer particularly outside the peak season. Lovely bracing walks along the magnificent Woolacombe beach with the dogs and a fabulous log fire to come back to. The house is ideal for families as well as our furry friends with plenty of room for get togethers as well as quiet spots to get away from it all, it really is home from home. Thank you for letting us use your beautiful home. We see you have recently installed an electric car charger which we will be making use of when we come back next year!
