The views from the hotel are extraordinary: waves crashing on the shores, the most beautiful sunsets, surfers, cliffs. The food was delicious and service was excellent. We got a massage and Carol, the masseuse, was outstanding. The rooms with an ocean view were breathtaking, we left the windows open to hear the waves at night. The room, bed, and bathroom were the nicest we have seen in England. The grounds were beautiful and invited us to sit and watch the ocean. Truly a luxury hotel.

LOVED the breakfast, choice was abundant and meals arrived fairly quickly. Breakfast was amazing!
The owners Will & Stacey were super friendly and accommodating where possible. Late check in wasn't an issue. Request of a Birthday candle in the dessert was also fulfilled. The overall feel of the building was modern with a nostalgic twist, warm and welcoming.

The room was clean and spacious. Beds were super comfy. I slept like a log and we spent the majority of our time on our beds so the fact that we were comfortable was ideal. Breakfast was filling and freshly cooked. My son had the kippers which made a nice change for him as it's not something usually offered on a breakfast menu. I had the full english as I'm a creature of habit, both of which were just what we needed to set us up for the day and very reasonably priced too. We booked in advance which saved us a couple of pounds but would have happily paid the full price. Christmas day lunch in their sister restaurant was amazing and well worth the price. The staff in both sites were amazing, helpful, polite and courteous.
The beaches are fabulous in Woolacombe, very sandy and flat.
The beaches are fabulous in Woolacombe, very sandy and flat. It's a huge surfing place so there's always plenty of surfers about. The amenities in the town are great, plenty of places to eat and get an ice cream, and touristy shops too to get your postcards and gifts from!

As a family, we love Woolacombe and have visited many times.
As a family, we love Woolacombe and have visited many times. Our main reason is the fantastic beach and to go surfing. Everything is so clean and well maintained; the facilities are easily accessed, and everyone is very friendly. There are plenty of places to eat, whether it's lite bites, ice creams, waffles or a full meal, and we found a gluten-free diet was well catered for. Topping up on with groceries locally is easy and the bigger supermarkets in Ilfracombe are only a 10 minute drive away.

Beautiful clean beach.
Local amenities not too bad and remained clean even at the end of the day.
Very few food or take away options in town so long waits for food - 40 mins or more wait for fish n chips from local take away or over an hour wait for pizza truck.

I've been going to Woolacombe since I was four years old, and I'm now mid-30s... I'll be back there as often as I can be. It's a beautiful place to visit and I'll continue to for a long time to come.

Lovely if the weather is good as you cannot improve on a vast beach, which is safe to bathe, swim and surf - good life saving regime in place.
Woolacombe is reliant upon take away food facilities which are good but a little expensive.

Possibly one of Devons finest beaches.
Possibly one of Devons finest beaches. Great for boarders, surfers alike. Tide out and you have your rock pools. Dogs allowed in certain areas these being large areas of the beach so just dandy for all. Negative points are not many shops not many cafes restaurants compared to other by the seaside towns resorts and found to be quite expensive. Take a picnic is the answer if you want to save a pound or two. Great coastal walks, remember to pay for your parking otherwise you are likely to get a ticket.
Stunning location - beautiful vantage point overlooking Woolacombe Beach. The garden flat had a huge balcony perfect for sitting out and having a bbq and easy with a dog and toddler. Great facilities in the room, nice to have a sitting area and big bathroom. The hosts were very accommodating and lovely to chat too. We wished we could have stayed longer. the beach is perfect for kids and dogs, so clean and lots of places to eat and drink.
Loved it overall. Really well positioned just a short walk from the beach and included parking which was great as Woolacombe parking is not cheap. Super clean and bed and sofa bed were really comfy. Spacious design and great facilities. Really well equipped kitchen with a full size fridge and freezer. Even had a washing machine which was a bonus. Pool and gym were good to have available. Nice terrace area (albeit not private at all).
Warm welcome by the people at reception. The hotel is old , but good for 1-2 night sleep. Check-in time 4- 10 pm. The food counter was closed by the time we reached there @ 9 pm, but they were generous to served food, considering we had a toddler. Very kind.
We ordered lamb curry, rice & Nan. The food was very tasty, Kudos to the chef for cooking for us. Our stay was very pleasant, good sleep considering the hotel is on road.
Kitchen facilities were great and Kerry had left us all the basics which was so helpful. Instructions for things like hot water were clear, beds comfortable, garden lovely to look out on when raining and a treat to sit in for breakfast in the sun. We were a 6 minute drive from Woolacombe beach and could have walked down the back road if we could have faced the walk back up the hill.
Incredible location! A very short walk into the town and to the beach. The view from the balcony is stunning.
Lizzie the host was brilliant with communication.
Very easy parking with a allocated space.
There is an outdoor shower for rinsing off the sand prior to entering the building.
There is a great outdoor shed/lock up, for each flat, for your boards and buckets/spades.
The communication with Tracey was brilliant. All our questions were answered quickly and in full making the lead up to the holiday easily plannable. The property was everything we needed, well appointed and comfortable. The area it is in is ideal for holiday mood and a great space for our 2 boys to explore and play in, the especially liked the pool.
the room was not only comfortable but the sea view was stunning! the spa was wonderful - jacuzzi, steam, pool much needed after walking the coastal path. staff were helpful, friendly and kind - which was wonderful for a solo traveller like me. amazing food (I had breakfast lunch and dinner!) great wine list and the cocktails are great.
We had a lovely stay at Fairways. The property is in a nice quiet location, just a short drive from the beautiful beach at Woolacombe. Fairways is a real home away from home. The owners had provided everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. will be returning and definitely recommend it to all.
Absolutely stunning location! Perfect for the beach and local restaurants. The apartment was clean and decorated lovely with everything we needed for a week away. Parking was right outside the building and the storage space for our body boards and wetsuits was ideal.
A lovely hotel, rooms with views looking out to sea, the rooms are decorated to a high standard and modern. You have use of the swimming pool and other facilities. Staff are welcoming and friendly.
Liked the clever use of space, the comfortable bed, really good shower and the induction hob, being so close to the beach and coastal path, and having parking in such a prime location.
Parking was awful, also no tea bags or caffe, cleaning or bin bags was changed while we was there. The view from the room was only for other hotels. The room was cold with no heating.
