This picturesque seaside property is ideally located in the resort of Ilfracombe and sits nestled amongst neighbouring houses which overlook the harbour. Conveniently, the harbour is less than 150 steps from the front door so, whatever time of day, you are able to walk your two dogs who are very much welcomed to the property. The beach, restaurant and shops are also right on your doorstep, so you can truly make the most of what the seaside town of Ilfracombe has to offer.

 This three-story property combines traditional features with contemporary décor to create a warm and homely atmosphere. The ground floor is fully accessible for your dog to enjoy and they are sure to feel very at home as soon as they arrive. Entering the property, you’ll be greeted by a welcoming kitchen/diner and a cosy living room with an original fireplace that your dog will just love to lie in front of on those extra chilly days. On the first floor, you’ll find a spacious king-size bedroom and a bathroom with a bath, shower and WC. Walking up the stairs to the second floor, you’ll discover a twin room for the older kids and a bunk bedroom for youngsters. Outside, you have your very own small rooftop balcony with seating to overlook those exquisite harbour views at sunset.

This property is situated right in the heart of Ilfracombe, so it’s completely your decision as to whether you wish to explore locally or travel a little further afield. The surfer’s paradise of Woolacombe with its golden sandy beach is just 7 miles away; however, be aware that there are certain areas specifically for dogs kept on a lead.

Gorgeous cottage, tucked away in the harbour but ideally situated. Easily accessible & plenty of parking, but ensure you get a parking permit! Very clean, comfy & warm, not far from the pubs which had great food available, George & Dragon, Ship & Pilot were on our doorstep as it was Christmas, raining non-stop and not much to do!

Fantastic location. Just tucked back enough to be really quiet but you step outside and on the beautiful harbour. Well equipped, clean, spacious and comfortable cottage. You can walk into town, fabulous local walks. Lovely pubs and restaurants. Thank you to the hosts for the kind gesture in the fridge too!

This is a lovely cottage in the perfect location. Literally seconds from the beach and minutes from the South West Coastal Walk where dogs can go off lead. Owners are very responsive to any questions.

Lovely cottage and well equipped. Lots of information left for us. Great location and really enjoyed Ilfracombe and being near the harbour was great. There is no actual view from the cottage but we knew that. There was great carry outs noticeable the burger bar run nearby who did very upmarket burgers in my mind. Ilfracombe very short of restaurantRead mores someone needs to open a really good one on or near the harbour. Hide

Sandy Lane in Ilfracombe was a lovely cottage right on the harbour front. It was cosy and suited our needs well. We would recommend this place to friends and family.

The cottage is perfect if you want an easy location. It's not a 'fancy' place and some of the rooms (bathroom) are a bit outdated, but it's a perfect spot for enjoying the local area. We had great weather so we didn't need to be inside too much, so it was perfect for us to rest in the evenings. It's right by the harbour so you can pop in and out asRead more you need and enjoy local food etc without a long journey home. Definitely recommend, but take cleaning products with you as they're not provided! Hide

We had a lovely stay at Sandy Lane. The house was well equipped and suited our needs. It's in a beautiful location with some great walks, fab beaches and excellent pubs and restaurants close by. A lovely bottle of wine welcomed us and the basket containing a towel and throw for the dog was a lovely touch. Would highly recommend.
