We had an amazing time here. The star of the show is absolutely the balcony and the view but the apartment is really comfortable, quiet and well equipped. Exactly as it looked on the photos and information provided before and during the stay was great. Being able to walk to the beach in 10 minutes was fantastic, so could just leave the car at the aRead morepartment. Would definitely recommend and will be back. Hide

Lovely spacious apartment, with wonderful views from lounge french doors/balcony. Very clean and tidy and had everything we needed. Our only problem was that (as senior citizens) we hadn't appreciated how steep the steps were from the car parking area to the front door of the main property. All in all we had a wonderful time in Woolacombe.
