Great location with fantastic views across the bay.
All amenities were catered for.
Owner made sure everything was in place, with additional touches (Christmas dec’s and mince pies).
The stairs were a challenge (even our dog stopped at No3 after a while). We were aware of them before we arrived so we were prepared for them.

Cleanliness and the view is amazing.
Stairs were a bit hard work for me as I have asthma, but don’t let that put you off as I just took my time and when you get to the apartment it is well worth it

4.5 / 5.0
The properties location on the seafront was lovely and it had everything you needed to fully enjoy your stay.
My biggest gripe wasn’t so much about the property but the fact that it lacked its own parking space. If you could find a parking space outside then you could only park for one hour! You then had to move it for the rest of the day to a chargeable car park! If you are happy to factor in a daily charge of £15 then that’s fine but if you have anything heavy to carry then you won’t be too pleased?!

The view, the facilities and the central location were all great
The only minor issue was the stairs after a big meal and a few glasses of wine. But that# my fault

Lovely and clean apartment in a very central location. Perfect for exploring Ilfracombe and the beautiful coastline. The view from the balcony is simply stunning and we enjoyed gorgeous sunsets every night!
The apartment had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay. We absolutely loved it!

all mod cons
stairs and lack of dedicated parking ( but stairs and lack of parking are both good for exercise!)

Loved the location and sitting on the deck overlooking the sea. It wasn't that warm but still great in the lounge looking out. Very clean, well fitted out appartment. Great for two couples, with two bathrooms even if fairly small. Comfy beds and sofa. Great base for exploring the coast path. We managed to park outside to unpack then move the car to a free parking location. As long as you can manage the stairs, I would highly recommend.
Nothing really.

lovely views, warm and cosy. A lovely quiet spot close to the town.
Be aware this property isn’t suitable for people with mobility issues-especially if they can’t do stairs.

We have been to ilfracombe quiet a few times but never stopped in the town. The apartment is in the perfect location with stunning views over the sea. The apartment was lovely and warm and very cosy despite the weather! Will definitely be booking again!

Good location close to everything, fabulous views from the balcony. Well equipped with all facilities for a perfect stay. Even in October we enjoyed sitting on the balcony with a coffee, we even got to see a couple of Dolphins.

3.5 / 5.0
The view from the sitting room was wonderful. Decor, comfort and cleanliness good. Position was central and convenient for the harbour.
Lovely to have tea, coffee and wine - but a pint of milk to start us off would have been helpful, as would spare toilet rolls.
A problem with the boiler and lack of hot water was soon solved.
A 5 storey Victorian building, with high ceilings and the apartment on the 5th floor/ attic rooms, Is a huge challenge for anyone. If you struggle with stairs this apartment is not for you.
Parking is difficult. Limited to overnight on the street outside the building, with many vehicles seeking few spaces. This means leaving the apartment every day to either move the car to a pay and display car park ,or leave Ilfracombe for the day.
If you’re a light sleeper, be aware that the nearby church clock chimes very loudly every hour. Thank goodness the hosts left earplugs for us.
4.0 / 5.0
The apartment is situated on the coastline with magnificient views out to sea. The apartment is well catered for all, very clean with many personal touches. Very welcoming. Ĺoved having coffee in the morning sat on the balcony. Would visit again.
Unfortunately the apartment is up 3 landings with stairs. No parking close by and have to pay to find a space in public car park
