About this property
Spacious property with a ballroom and phenomenal sea and harbour views
This large Victorian terrace sleeps 16 people in 7 beautifully decorated bedrooms and includes a ballroom, large comfortable lounge and kitchen, ideal for a big group get together. It is located above the working harbour of this fishing town and panoramic ocean views greet the occupants from every floor of the property. There is an outside terraced area with outside seating and dining furniture and breathtaking views.
Exceptional space and facilities create the perfect destination for large groups. The bedrooms are individually decorated, the living areas are comfortable and modern while respecting the property's Victorian heritage. The ballroom is the perfect setting for that special occasion such as a birthday party or anniversary meal. In the summer months the terrace provides an alternative location to sit down for a special meal, with a large built in BBQ and breathtaking ocean views. Light the chiminea in the evening and sit round the fire watching the ships sail by.
The property has 3 TVs (2 SKY digital boxes with Sports, Movies and Kids). Also I-pod docking station with speakers for 'party' use.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Jeremy Warner
We are a Midlands based couple who love the ocean and we bring our 3 young children to the seaside as often as possible to enjoy surfing, kayaking and being out and about in that fresh sea air. There is something about the light and air by the coast that you never experience inland.
Whether we come as a family or with friends each trip to the working harbour of Ilfracombe is always an adventure in its own right. There is nothing better than being outside in the healthy sea air enjoying quality time with your children. We are not sure whom enjoys it the most, the adults or the kids!

Why they chose this property
We love the town of Ilfracombe especially out of season when the weather whips up the sea and creates wonderful views from the property. The property is part of a former hotel and we were looking for a property that could be used to house larger groups. Now converted into a private residence, with ample accommodation for large groups, the property has been brought back to life as "Big Sea House" and we love the thought of it being occupied on a weekly basis with families and friends coming together to fill the rooms with laughter. North Devon provides a wealth of opportunities for outdoor pursuits including award winning beaches, the Heritage coastal path and Exmoor National Park.
