Set above Westward Ho! beach, on a family run, 60 acre, privately owned cliff-top estate, you’ll find this collection of beautifully thought-out cottages with incredible sea-views and rolling North Devon countryside surrounding you. Spacious cottages for families and intimate retreats for couples, the location provides a wonderful place to explore, relax and make holiday memories that will last forever. There is a range of facilities here for you to enjoy and all designed for your relaxation. From a play barn for the children and animals to pet and eggs to collect from the chickens to a Scandinavian BBQ hut for dining with amazing sunset views. A rustic barn opens its bar on warm summer nights and the star gazing here is some of the best in the county. Each cottage has private access through the grounds to the South West Coast Path and down onto Westward Ho! beach. Perfect for leaving the car behind and feeling the sand between your toes. Westward Ho! is a pretty village set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close by to the fishing villages of Appledore and Instow.

The local surf school offers lessons and wetsuit hire and the Tarka Trail is a traffic free cycle path taking in many beautiful sights.

One of the best cottages we have stayed in with some small, annoying, but easily remedied faults.

This is a great property and a great location. Comfortable beds with just a generally nice, relaxed feel to it. The play barn is a great asset, but it's a shame that the badminton racquets and table tennis bats have clearly seen better days as have the basketball game and pool table. It just looks under-invested. The path through to the coastal patRead moreh could do with some rather severe pruning too - it's so overgrown that it's verging on being impassable. Hide

We had a very relaxing and peaceful holiday. Lovely place. There was a small problem with one of the keys but was dealt with promptly and efficiently. Owners very friendly and helpful. Can fully recommend.
