We loved our stay at The Poplars - a fabulous house with lots of character and space. We loved the veranda and were grateful for such a generous welcome pack. The house was beautifully clean and every kitchen item you could think of was available! Definitely need a car to get down to Ilfracombe and the beaches around. Beautiful coastline and lots tRead moreo see. Hide

We throughly enjoyed our stay at The Poplars. The house is very comfortable, stylish and well equipped. We were a group of 7 and had plenty of room. The house is in a beautiful valley and it was lovely to wake up and be surrounded by trees. We loved exploring the area, there is so much to see. We would definitely visit again.

Gorgeous house, beautiful location, really comfy with great facilities, everything has been thought about. Walks straight from the door, we all loved Ilfracombe and walking over the cliffs to Lee. A great house for six people to enjoy time together.

A stylish home with a warm welcome from the hosts who have thought of everything. The information about walks and places to visit was really useful and the welcoming treats were much appreciated. We loved the birds visiting the feeders and sitting on the veranda listening to the owls in the evening.

Perfect for us, 7 people and 3 small dogs. Sitting out on the porch looking across and down the valley was lovely. The self contained garden was ideal for the dogs and very secure, no worries at all letting them roam. Nice walks on the doorstep and Ilfracombe is walkable if a bit hard work on the way home!
