Bay View Reviews

Eric
If you take this place it is as it says it is but beware of the steps
Julia
Good location, though, like many properties in Woolacombe, up a steep hill. Lovely views across the bay and to Lundy. The ensuite shower is much better than it looks, as it's quite small but the water pressure is good. The kitchen is well equipped with plenty of mugs, cutlery, etc, which isn't always the case with holiday lets. The only real downside for us was the narrow parking bay which made parking quite tricky when there was a car parked opposite as well as cars both sides. Fortunately, there's plenty of walking to do without using a car, plus a bus service to Ilfracombe and Barnstaple, so we didn't have to negotiate the parking too many times.
Stephen
The cottage was superb. Clean throughout with everything you need for a lovely holiday, which we had. The views were stunning and we wouldn't hesitate to stay there again, which I'm certain we will.
Paul
The location was superb, although the second set of steps were uneven and difficult to negotiate especially if carry heavy bags, the interior was beyond our expectation, well equipped, with dishwasher and washing machine, microwave and fridge and freezer, as stated in the booking details you only need to bring beach towels.
Kelly
Booking was brilliant. Payment was easy. The right amount of information was passed over. The cleaner messaged me on the morning so I had her information. Excellent, stress free holiday booking.
Rosina
Great facilities and location.
Lynda
Apartment was modern, private, clean & comfortable, balcony also perfect for our 2 dogs. Road to/from beach is steep so might not suit everyone. Woolacombe is a lovely place, and we would recommend this apartment which is only 7-8 mins walk to the beach.
Julie
Clean and well equipped apartment with good views.
Hazel
Lovely apartment with amazing views from the balcony. Comfortable and well equipped gir our needs
Kirsti
The views are amazing and the apartment is extremely comfortable with a lovely homely feel, the beds are incredibly comfortable and shower pressure - so much better than my own home! Kitchen facilities are great, everything we needed with special touches with the tea, coffee & biccies and dog bowls and mat. Thank you for a lovely holiday. The walk back from the beach is quite steep as you would expect from a costal apartment, but great excercise, but caution for those with less mobility with steps to the apartment. Thank you.
Helen
A very well equipped apartment in a perfect location for the beach with lovely sea views.
Lesley
Lovely apartment , well equipped, clean , great location
Torquil
Although the decoration and furnishings are a little tired, it was the cleanest cottage I have stayed in. Very well equipped and good supplies. Comfortable beds. Great location with a short walk to the beach. Parking spot can be tight if vehicles parked opposite but great to have one.
Colin
Fabulous views, short steep climb from the sea front. We really enjoyed our stay.
Paul
Pleasant stay at Bay View, good things to note, apartment was clean, well equipped and had good level of welcome gifts and consumables. The view from the balcony of Woolacombe bay is fabulous although evening sun is blocked by huge palm tree and the balcony adjoins another apartment with no privacy between them. Although the location was good, close to the shops, restaurants and beach (the main attraction) they are only accessed via steep hills, not a problem for us but people with mobility issues could have a problem. The bad, noise from the adjoining apartments unfortunately being able to hear every footstep and door or drawer opening and closing is a problem when itâ??s time to relax.
Annette
Really well equipped, plenty of crockery and cutlery so you don't have to wash up immediately! Fabulous views across the bay from the lounge and of course the balcony. We were blessed with sunshine to enjoy the balcony for breakfast. It's the type of property that even when we had a small amount of rain it's so bright and has such an expanse of windows that it's a pleasure to be inside.
Kerry
Excellent with lovely views but up a very steep hill not suitable for walking issues
