This property was the perfect weekend trip away, with it being fairly modern. The owner had left some essential products which was a lovely touch, we were able to check in early which was perfect as we had arrived a lot earlier than expected. We was blown away with how nice is was and how spacious it was. The parking out the front was okay but found it hard during the week day with two cars. On my google maps it took us to another place but it is on the main road to your left going up the hill. Would highly recommend.

We had a wonderful stay at the Cube with friends and family. Beautiful house, set in peaceful greenery. Perfect location for exploring the area!

Fiona and Tim have a great house and the photos are not doing the house justice! Close to plenty of things to do and short drive to Woolacombe beach. It’s in the middle of a council estate and parking is difficult and the trek up to the house was a pretty long and steep! However once in the house it’s like you’re transported and you don’t see the estate that you’re in. The beds are very very soft and lots of us were struggling with our backs. The value for money is 10/10. Overall rating 8/10. I would use again!

The property is very good and the terrace excellent, the back garden is steep. The main problem is the access, up a long slope or steps and then a narrow steep climb to the house. Parking was also a major issue as the residents of a long terrace take up most of the parking most of the time, some never moved the whole week we were there.

The process of booking the property was excellent along the the communication with Fiona who was always swift with her replies. The property was in excellent condition and was fully equipped. The only down side was parking on the road. However we had a fantastic holiday with glorious weather in what is a lovely property.

With 6 adults of differing ages, Falkland House gave us the space to 'do your own thing' only a short walk from Ilfracombe. For the younger members of the group, the location near many of the surfing beaches such as Croyde, Saunton Sands, Woolacombe and Westward Ho was ideal. For more leisurely pursuits there were Exmoor (Tarr Steps and Tarr Farm Inn highly recommended), Dunster Castle, RHS Rosemoor, Hartland Abbey etc. Great location, great property.

The house is beautiful with attention paid to every last detail. Fiona was extremely quick to respond to emails and we had everything we needed during our stay. There is plenty of space inside and the property photos do not truly reflect the tasteful interiors of each room. Fiona was very generous with everything being provided including a large selection of goodies on our arrival. We hope to return again soon!
