The Admirals House is perfectly set in the heart of bustling Ilfracombe Harbour - a very picturesque
The Admirals House is perfectly set in the heart of bustling Ilfracombe Harbour - a very picturesque location in North Devon. Our apartment (Hornblower) gave us a birds-eye view across the harbour and the Bristol channel beyond. Everything was within easy reach - within walking distance or a short car journey away - and there was lots to do. A very spacious and well appointed apartment which had everything you could possibly need (perfect for a family) including access to laundry facilities (greatly appreciated as a mum!) and Debs is a warm, friendly and very welcoming host. Highly recommended.
