Penny

Has a fantastic couple of weeks,though we came home a day early because storm Any was due!! The apartment was lovely, real home from home. Views over to the harbour were amazing, and we were so lucky with the weather. Found lots of walks and interest round and about Ilfracombe, ventured out in car a couple of times but mostly bus or walk. Sadly couldn't get a boat trip as one owner was on holiday, and the day we hoped to go to Lundy was cancelled.

Jill

The apartment was very comfortable and exceptionally clean. We had everything we needed, I couldn't fault it. The view is just amazing and it's so special to have that. Great to have parking and the location was perfect for us. Particularly good that it is a ground floor apartment, straight out of the car and in, no stairs! Brilliant.

Christine

Stunning views of the sea which sold it for me. The flat was a home from home. Had everything you needed.

Karen

We loved the view over ilfracombe, we found if you walk through the park it gets you to the quay quicker

Sharon

This is our second stay at Captains View. The apartment is well equipped, clean & well presented and situated exactly where we wanted to be. We have already booked our return visit!! Thank yiu

Trudy

Lovely accommodation with spectacular view of Harbour. Good location with local pub in walking distance and choice of restaurants in town

Peter

Nice cosy apartment. Fantastic views of the sea, the harbour and Hillsborough which we did climb. As long as you are fit, comfortable walking distance to the town and harbour.

Rebecca

Had a lovely weeks stay. Quiet location with a short walk down into Ilfracombe. Beautiful view from window of open plan kitchen/lounge/diner and spotlessly clean and comfortable.

Andrew

Excellent. Very clean and comfortable

Janet

Lovely apartment, plenty of space just wasnâ??t expecting such a long walk but we found the harbour walk easier and used taxis back.

Nick

This is a comfortable apartment with lots of equipment. The owner adds some lovely touches - a welcome pack of tea, coffee, milk and biscuits plus some beautiful fresh flowers. Location is good - quiet area but, it is at the top of the hill and a 10 minute walk to the centre - going down is easy, coming back is more of a challenge. Plenty of restaurants, bars, pubs and eateries in the town. Overall, a very pleasant place to stay.

Sharon

A very well located apartment for exploring North Devon. We love Ilfracombe and the view across the by was stunning. Well equipped apartment with easy access. We will definitely book Captainâ??s View in the future. A very enjoyable stay.

Paul

Very pleasant and comfortable apartment , great views

Meriel

A very comfortable apartment for two people. Wonderful harbour views. Although a steep walk we managed a walk down to the town - and back!
