Spring holiday

We had a lovely break at this apartment, you couldn't fault the view nd everything you wanted was included within the property. Also plenty of amenities in the area ie shops, bakerery and places to eat and drink. We also found it to be quite easy to visit lot's of places around North Devon and Cornwall.

Light and airy property slightly tired in places but compensated by fantastic sea views. The property is literally on the sea front and close to pubs, cafes and eateries. Communications with both the property manager and the owners were excellent.

Great family half term mini break!

Fantastic apartment with great views and perfect location. The apartment itself is exactly as described really comfortable with all you would ever need and more. Suited us with two ten year olds! Great communication with the hosts and flexibility with checkin and check out due to low season, which we really appreciated given the typical half term rain!!!! Lovely area, great walks, long beach and rock pools to explore. Lovely cafés close by…. Definitely go for cake at ‘Tea on the Green’, AMAZING! Atlantic Bay do great fish and chips and we loved the pizza at Pig and Olive! The perfect little trip away 😊

Not as expected, very tired property

We were affected by the weather, there were no blinds in the lounge upstairs and it was scorching, very uncomfortable even with the doors open. Being so close to the sea when we had stormy weather we could n't sleep due to the sound of the crashing sea. The corridors are very narrow in this property and the two flights of stairs far too steep. We were expecting a luxury property from the photos and description; unfortunately this it was not.

Response from VrboOwner on 7 July 2025
I am sorry to hear you had both hot and stormy weather. due to the proximity to the sea these are elements we cannot control, some visitors enjoy watching the changing weather and sea. It is not possible to install blinds upstairs, due to the unusual architectural, shape of the roof, most visitors find that keeping the balcony doors open gives a cooling draft. The corridors and stairs are a standard width and height. the stairs are described in the description and with bedrooms on the first floor, it is possible to rest between levels. Sorry to hear the stairs etc. were a problem for you and that the weather was very changeable.

Fabulous

We loved the apartment. The views are stunning and we enjoyed watching the tide go in and out. Hope to return soon! Only very minor problem is that I found the Verbo app stopped working and I couldn’t send any messages to our hosts.

Just what we wanted...

This apartment was just what we wanted, - the sea view from the main bedroom and the living room is superb. All the accommodation was first rate and comfortable to chill out in. Everything is provided to eat in if you wish, and Waitrose delivered to the door. There are places to eat in Westward Ho! itself and plenty to choose between there and Bideford too. The location is great for days out around North Devon.
