The Apartment was well equipped having everything thing we needed to self cater when needed. Comfortable sleeping, with useful showers one of which is ensuite. Heating was easy to control to suit are comfort levels, especially as it turned suddenly cold. Access via the lift was easy and we found no problem in unloading and loading our suitcases anRead mored bags. Plenty of parking spaces and a turning area is available. Lovely location and great views out across the channel. Also being close to Lynton shops allowed us to take a short walk out and browse, stopping for a coffee or two, especially if the weather was inclement as it was during our stay. Fortunately no snow as its rather hilly in every direction. Had a nice autumn break week stay. Hide

Fantastic location within a very short walk of everything you need, with superb views from the lounge and both bedrooms. Very well equipped, tastefully furnished and spotlessly clean.

We loved this property with its fantastic views over the Bristol channel. It was very clean, well equipped and comfortable. The location is great, very close to the town with shops, pubs and restaurants. It's also very near the funicular railway connecting to Lynmouth and the cliff top walk to the valley of the rocks. A beautiful scenic area.
