Superb location. Very clean and well equipped. Excellent value for money.

Karl United Kingdom

A secret beautifully accommodated little hideaway in a wonderful location

Lesley United Kingdom

A lovely little two bedroomed apartment which met our requirements very well, however, as it was uphill quite a way I would suggest that guests are informed as taking luggage up several sets of steps was not the easiest of tasks.

Trudi United Kingdom

Great communication with the host, excellent location and everything we needed was there. The Hideaway was very clean and tidy and we really enjoyed our stay.

Julie United Kingdom

Fabulous central location and comfortable no frills accommodation. Kitchen well equipped and good sized bathroom. Pictures are true to life. Good communication with host - prompt responses and useful advice about parking. Good value for money. Quirky and quaint. Walking distance to all the main attractions. Our 4 year old loved the little twin room but could be a bit too snug for two older children or adults.

Wintle United Kingdom

the location was fab with wonderful views when stood at the end of walkway

Stacey United Kingdom

A wonderful little bolt hole in a fantastic location and in walking distance of great restaurants, pubs and the harbour.

Lesley United Kingdom

Great location close to some really good pubs and restaurants as well as close to the coast path.

John United Kingdom

It was a lovely location everything that was required was well within walking distance. Restaurants that were recommended were all within walking distance and also supermarkets.

Mark United Kingdom

It’s in a lovely central location in the heart of the bustling Coombe and everything in town is off easy walking distance. It’s a lovely hidden Gem and we are definitely coming back!! The owners couldn’t do enough to make our stay here comfortable. Simon and Debbie were terrific in showing us everywhere to go

  • Hi, is there sufficient space for a travel cot?
    Hi, there is space for a travel cot in the main bedroom which we can supply as well as a high chair.

  • Hello, how far is the property from the nearest train station and would a car be necessary? Thank you
    Hi, the nearest train station is Barnstaple, bus services from Barnstaple to Ilfracombe are very straightforward and frequent also reasonably priced. The station is approximately 10 miles away so taxis are relatively expensive. Regards, Simon.
    Answered on March 21, 2021
  • Hi, do you allow well behaved dogs? Thanks, Kellie
    Hi Kellie , yes as long as we know beforehand it’s no problem. Simon.
    Asked about: Apartment • Answered on April 2, 2022
  • Would this be suitable for an older person who is able but not agile
    Hi, there are steps to the property and Fore Street is a pretty steep slope so it may be a little too much for someone with limited agility.
    Answered on May 9, 2020
  • is there parking for 2 cars
    Hi , there is no parking at the property but there are unloading spaces outside in Fore street and there is a long stay car park at the bottom of Fore street as well.

The apartment is set back slightly from fore street which has a host of wonderful restaurants only a stones throw away from the Michelin starred The Olive room it has a double bedroom with a built in wardrobe and another small bedroom with 2 single beds great for kids there is also a sofa bed in the lounge but this is not a private area as it looks upon the kitchen diner but it’s another sleeping alternative depending on your requirements.the apartment is fully central heated has a shower/bath , cooking facilities and a fridge.
The neighbourhood has a whole host of bars and restaurants and new ones are being added all the time. The restaurants cater for all tastes and budgets from weatherspoons to Michelin stars. There are also a huge variety of pubs and wine bars to choose from. If you are into walking or hiking ilfracombe offers some challenging and picturesque walks along the South West coastal path. Fishing is a very popular past time from the harbour as are boat trips along the coast or to Lundy.Beaches are plentiful in ilfracombe and vary in size and accessibility but if you are prepared to travel among the coast a couple of miles there are some truly stunning beaches with miles of golden sand and surf.
