Amy – December 2024
“The accommodation and cleanliness of our apartment were absolutely outstanding, as was the level of service we received from Woolacombe Cottages. We had a fabulous, comfortable holiday in a fabulous location. I would highly recommend staying at Ocean Point, it was beautiful.”
Paula – December 2024
“A perfect home for our family Xmas! Spacious lounge kitchen dining area with a huge corner sofa. A really good sized socialable space for the 6 of us & two dogs! TV was a good size for the room but as we weren’t sure how good the Wifi strength would be in that area of Devon we took along our Firestick so we could still get all the Xmas movies! The bedrooms & ensuites were lovely & clean. A toilet roll was provided in each bathroom but we forgot we had to bring our own so had to buy more. Big kitchen with super double oven cooker & dishwasher. (Remember to pack tea towels & also dishwasher tablets!). Great enclosed garden for our dogs. A perfect spot close (by car) to several stunning beaches & we enjoyed lots of walks. Lovely dog-friendly pubs in both Woolacombe & Croyde. Thank you to Tracey for being prompt to answer all our Qs & for decorating a Xmas tree for us!”
Nicky – December 2024
“Great property with lots of woodlands behind the garden. Handy for socialising in the hot tub without bothering anyone. The mill pub is just a short walk away and has decent food and lovely staff. Would definitely be going again at some point.”

James – October 2024
“Beautiful characterful comfortable cottage that we did not want to leave. Highly recommend Miss Fea’s Bistro, and loved the fish & chips round the corner and the Ship Aground pub was value for money, nice traditional pub grub, friendly staff in a dog-friendly cosy atmosphere. The beds in the cottage were very comfortable, huge shower and lovely sea views. We loved the fire/ stove. We highly recommend x”

“The most amazing break away! What a beautifully tranquil place, the cottage was super clean, homely and had everything we needed! The best holiday cottage I’ve ever stayed at! & the heated private pool is amazing! 5 minutes from the main towns & a 5-minute drive to north Devon’s finest beach! 100% recommend here and will definitely be back!”
Brittanie – August 2024
“Comfortable cottage in a great location”
Amy – August 2024
“We have been coming to Woolacombe for a long time now and look forward to it each year.
This is the first time that we have booked via Woolacombe Cottages. They have been quick to reply to emails and happy to
help find properties for us.
Sea Breeze is an excellent apartment with beautiful views of the down. So close to the town and beach yet so quiet which we love! The apartment is very well equipped with all the home from home necessities. It is clean and nicely furnished.
We loved the warm outside shower when we come back from the beach and the storage area for our boards.
Our only comment would be that the single beds are squeaky and not very comfortable.
We have already booked for next year! Thank you”
Anna – August 2024
“We had a wonderful stay in this beautifully presented house with wonderful views of the beach, it was exactly what we needed, so thank you”
Eoin – August 2024
“This was a great little “cottage” in a lovely peaceful setting on a holiday village which was very safe, lots of open space for the kids to run around. A couple of little play areas for them to enjoy. The on-site swimming pool was brilliant and we used that a few times – the kids loved it! The whole setting is immaculately manicured lawns and really well done. Onsite food truck is handy. The cottage itself is comfortable and cosy, and had everything we needed (i.e. cooking equipment, fast internet, bedding, towels… even a box of Lego and crabbing nets!)
Just personal preference, but note the bed in the master bedroom is a double which we found slightly small. Short drive down to Woolacombe (we never walked down as probably too far with kids and all the beach stuff) and close to other local attractions (e.g. Ilfracombe, Croyde, Watermouth Castle, etc). We had a great stay here and it was very good value for money in peak season. Would definitely stay again if returning to Woolacombe.”
Dean – August 2024
“Very pleasant stay. Great having two bathrooms! Our two children loved their twin, en-suite room. Good size rooms throughout with lots of nice touches and attention to detail. Finally, a self-catering apartment with a properly sized fridge freezer! Balcony a little pointless as very small, (fits two people max) but could see part of Woolacombe beach and the sea in the distance from it.
We’ve stayed in this block of apartments before so knew that it was very convenient for walking to the beach/amenities. (Steep walk back up though). Priced more appropriately than other neighbouring/ similar sized properties. Suited us nicely and we’d happily come back.”
Nick – August 2024
“A really lovely property, clean and comfortable and very well equipped with all the essentials you need.”
Kate – August 2024
“We had a great stay here, the accommodation is very spacious so plenty of room for a large group. A good place for visiting the different beaches and the hot tub was great in the evenings!”
Emma – August 2024
“This was the second time we have stayed at Marine View, primarily due to the stunning view of Woolacombe Beach, but it also provides what we need for an enjoyable visit to glorious north Devon. We were very happy with our dinner in the restaurant in the Woolacombe Bay Hotel.”
Simon – July 2024
“Great stay in Caroline Cottage – home from home – everything you could want. Mortehoe is such a lovely village with great pubs, tea room, fish and chips and great village shops.”
Sheila – July 2024
“Really lovely stay would highly recommend it”
Sarah – July 2024
“Comfortable, good price, quiet location, well organised. Close to Woolacombe.”
Tom – July 2024
“We had such a lovely stay at the barn, location was great, our camper was unfortunately too large for the drive but there was a few spaces on the road to park which was handy, garden is beautiful with all the flowers out and looking over the other cottages, well equipped with everything we needed and perfect for our holiday with our 3 month old baby girl”
Laura – July 2024
“Beautiful cottage with the most gorgeous views over Woolacombe and the coast. So well-equipped we couldn’t think of anything else that you would need. Lots of lovely coastal walks almost straight from the door and a short trip (up a hill) to a delicious cream tea in Mortehoe. Easy to book and quick response to any questions. Perfect!”
Helen – July 2024

David – April 2024
“The Tarka Summerhouse is so much bigger than you expect. It’s like the Tardis. The recent makeover by the owners is really nicely done, and the place feels cosy and comfortable. The people at Woolacombe Cottages are amazing – so helpful and very quick response times.”
Mike – April 2024
“Fabulous property in a private and quiet location. The property was light and airy but with a cosy feel. Probably one of the best equipped places we have ever stayed at. Felt at home as soon as we walked through the door.”
