Comfy detached rural cottage Devon -hot tub, views

RichardRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Such a peaceful location and the highlight is the hot tub which is very private - great to relax in while watching the sunset or stargazing. The cottage is spacious, comfortable and well equipped with great facilities. We enjoyed a short local walk, a trip to Sandymouth beach (lovely cafe with great views) and visited Dartmoor. Would definitely stay again!

Spacious 3 bed flat, parking & stunning sea views

AbiolaRating, 5 stars3 days ago
Steve was an absolutely wonderful host—so pleasant, kind, and incredibly helpful throughout my stay. He made everything easy and welcoming from the moment I arrived. His apartment is a true gem—full of charm and comfort, with an absolutely breathtaking view of the beach. Waking up to the sound of the waves and that stunning view was pure bliss. I couldn’t have asked for a better stay. Thank you, Steve, for your hospitality and for creating such a beautiful, peaceful space. Highly recommended

Your guide to Woolacombe

All About Woolacombe

Located on the North Devon coast, Woolacombe is a nature haven and a popular destination boasting miles of uninterrupted sand and sea, where visitors come to surf, paddleboard, kitesurf, swim, and observe sea life. Woolacombe is steeped in history, with a museum devoted to shipwrecks and coastal village stories. The town is replete with breathtaking villa-style houses constructed during the Victorian and Edwardian eras and that now serve as holiday lets in Woolacombe.

Visitors come to the area to immerse themselves in the great outdoors, relax on golden sands, and take advantage of Woolacombe’s wide range of activities, including coastal walks, horse riding, and plenty of beach fun, including rockpool rambles.

You can also enjoy the region’s abundance of fresh seafood and farmers’ markets during annual foodie events, including the yearly Devon Street Food Festival in nearby Ilfracombe. Explore popular eateries year round and get a real taste for local delicacies, including fresh seafood, award-winning cheeses, and ales and ciders.


The best time to stay in a holiday rental in Woolacombe

You’ll always discover something to do in Woolacombe, but summer is an excellent time to visit the area if you want bright blue skies and balmy beach days. Temperatures are at their coolest between November and February, so you may want to bring along your hats and gloves. It’s also an excellent time to explore local hiking trails and admire the spectacular coastal scenery without having to dodge the heat of the midday sun. Woolacombe in spring is a delight, with pleasant temperatures and fewer visitors than in the warmer months. If you’re a budding surfer, then you may want to get your hands on an apartment in Woolacombe from May to June, when waves are at their height and temperatures are a little less chilly than in spring.


Top things to do in Woolacombe

Woolacombe Beach

Even if you aren’t a keen surfer or bodyboarder, a trip to Woolacombe’s main beach is something to experience. Stretching from Croyde to Ilfracombe, its three miles of golden sand make it one of the best beaches in the UK. Throughout the summer, lifeguards are on hand to ensure safe swimming, and other facilities, including beach hut rentals, are available.

Morte Point Trail

If you want to dive into nature, then the Morte Point Trail, which leaves from nearby Mortehoe Village, makes for a great half-day activity. As you ramble through the rare coastal heathland covered in wildflowers, you may just catch a glimpse of a dolphin or a seal in the waters below. In autumn, you’re likely to observe flocks of migrant seabirds passing by just offshore, a great time to bring binoculars.

Marwood Hill Garden

The North Devon Coast is home to a wide variety of wildflower species, and the Marwood Hill Garden is no exception. Just 20 minutes from Woolacombe, its 20 acres are home to three beautiful lakes and an impressive variety of plants, shrubs, and trees. The traditional tea rooms boast beautiful views of the gardens with homemade and locally sourced produce served up daily.
