A lovely clean and comfortable place with wonderful views but you do need to be quite fit and able if you want to walk to the village very steep.

Cottage not near coast as very steep high hill if you have mobility issues. Outdoor space not dog friendly as small front garden overgrown. Back decking area inaccessible due to being steep, and covered in leaves. Also handrail rotten. We did enjoy our time in Westward Ho! and area.

Lovely cottage spoilt by lack of tlc and some basic facilities not working or broken. Views are amazing. Location is good, though very steep walk to town facilities. Not walkable to off-lead dog walk beach. Patio was dirty and unusable. Lack of Wi-Fi combined with very poor phone signal makes communication really difficult from the cottage. The TV Read morehas only Freeview and no smart functions No information pack to give guidance re heating and other equipment details and disposal of waste. Hide
