Overview
Property code: 75439

Seafront apartment offering breath-taking panoramic sea views right on the seafront of the popular seaside town of Ilfracombe, within walking distance to all shops, pubs, restaurants and the beach.

Discover the beautiful atmosphere of seafront Ilfracombe, exploring the beautiful beaches and winding streets with your canine companion at your heels. Happily hosting four guests and one dog, this ground-floor apartment is perfectly suited to a group of friends or a family with older kids. Come home after a long day of walkies by the beach and soak up the unforgettable view from the lounge, relaxing in the company of your nearest and dearest.

 

Reached via a few steps, this Victorian split-level apartment is a seafront delight, set across two storeys and overlooking the water. Both human and dog alike will adore the stunning lounge, where floor-to-ceiling windows offer a panoramic view of the sea and let light flood the room. Settle into an armchair or sofa with your dutiful dog dozing at your heels, unwinding with a good book or a film on Netflix. Carry on into the kitchen to find a versatile space to cook and dine, well-equipped for feeding five hungry mouths or preparing picnics for the day ahead. Let sleeping dogs lie here in the cosy kitchen whilst you retire to bed. Two bedrooms can be found on the lower ground floor, one of which is a charming twin that’s ideal for older children or teenage guests. You will have access to the shared communal terrace which stretches right to the ocean's edge.

 

Step out your front door and instantly find an abundance of pubs and eateries in dog-friendly Ilfracombe. Explore the hand-carved tunnels around Tunnels Beach (0.5 miles) and Wildersmouth Beach (300 metres) where dogs are welcome to sniff and splash to their hearts’ content. The world-famous South West Coast Path runs right through Ilfracombe, accessible less than 500 metres from your doorstep. Join this remarkable route for some unforgettable walkies, exploring the North Devon Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with Lynton (11.5 miles) to the east and Woolacombe (10 miles) to the west.

Apartment was warm, comfortable and clean and well equipped for a self catering holiday. The views were exceptional and breathtaking. Easy access into the building and near all places for lovely dog walks. Would recommend this place to anyone wishing to visit Ilfracombe.

This is just as pictured on the can: beautifully appointed, decorated and located. No expense has been spared in tasteful decoration of this spacious apartment. We are here as it's dog-friendly and it has a confined patio overlooking the sea. You can see & hear the sea from the master bedroom and the bathroom, shared with a twin bedroom, is next doRead moreor, and complete with a bath for a long soak before dinner! The only problem is the 1 hour parking on the road and the traffic warden came on friday Hide

The apartment was comfortable and tastefully decorated . The view of the sea in the lounge was spectacular, and the kitchen was well equipped. We didnt want for anything. The communal area on the sea front was nice for drinks in the evening.

We spent a week in this dog friendly property. The property was spotlessly clean and was well appointed with everything we needed. The welcome pack was a nice touch. Two of us and a dog but there would have been plenty of room for four people. There are beautiful sea views from the living room. The bedrooms being downstairs made them nice and cool.Read more Easy access to the town. Only issue is difficulty with parking (I purchased a permit) and possibly for some the steps up to the door. Recommended. Hide

We found some nearby on road free parking on Granville Road, a short walk from apartment, parking is extremely difficult to drop off luggage, but that is the price you pay when you are so central. The apartment was excellent, upside down living, bedroom downstairs with a patio door leading onto shared patio area (ideal for your 1st cup of tea in a Read moremorning) and the view from the windows in the lounge is amazing, we sat and enjoyed/watched the view more than the tv.

Fantastic views and a comfy well equipped apartment. We could have spent all day sat staring out to sea! The housekeeper was very helpful and a welcome bottle of wine was a lovely touch. Dont be put off by no allocated parking space as getting a permit and parking in Marine Drive car park was a lot easier than expected.

View is amazing!!! Very well equipped and the house keeper rang me a couple of days before we arrived and was really helpful. Nice to have milk, coffee and a bottle of wine when we arrived. Very quiet and all you can hear is the sea at night. Close to everything. Watched a storm over South Wales it was awesome!! We will be returning
