Rockham Reviews

Gary
Donâ??t bother staying here itâ??s dated and not very clean . Not worth the money
Robert
Very good place to stay. Brilliant accomodation, and has everything you need.
Shayne
Lovely apartment, modern and spacious, equipped with everything you need and more. Love the location, would highly recommend this apartment.
Nicola
We enjoyed a lovely family holiday in the apartment. Perfectly positioned for walks to local beaches. We would definitely look at booking the apartment again
Robert
The apartment was close to all amenities,plenty of good walks,the national trust pothole on the Woolacombe cliff was very good.
Christine
We had a lovely week in the apartment which is very comfortable and well equipped. Mortehoe is a small village but has a great bistro, tearoom, two pubs and a post office/general store, and there's a shop at North Morte Farm campsite just a few yards up the road for essentials. Lovely walks and beaches in every direction. Hadn't been to this area before, but we'll be coming back.
S
Excellent apartment well appointed. Very clean and taken care of . Thank you
Kylie
Fantastic location with beach, pubs and costal walks on doorstep. Spacious inside lovely hamper on arrival would stay again.
Linda
A coastal gem in a village with everything a holiday maker may want. Two pubs serving food, a fantastic bistro, a post office with extras, tea rooms and, in peak season, a homemade takeaway and fish and chips. The proximity to the coastal path was a big draw that did not disappoint. Parking space and situated on a quiet road. The apartment had both bath and walk in shower. Lovely kitchen with everything you might need. Comfortable lounge and lots of streaming channels as well as free view. Large dining area. Good size bedrooms with comfortable beds. Extras such as wind breaks, rucksack etc. Everything thought of. Excellent standard.
Robert
Rockham apartment was exceptionally clean and well equipped, and modern, and had everything we needed. Lovely surprise of a generous welcome pack of goodies when we arrived, plus hand washes and shower gels in the bathrooms, which we havenâ??t always found in other rented holiday properties, so thank you very much.

We had a wonderful experience at Rockham and would definitely book again. It's home from home and so much more!

The apartment is very furnished. Short walk down to centre for two pubs. Nice not to need the car as there were lovely walks.

Great two bed, two bathroom apartment in Morthoe. Easy walking distances to local shops, pubs and footpaths with a 10min drive from Woolacombe. Very well equipped for all your needs, for a beach holiday and relaxing time away.

Fabulous apartment, great location and very well equipped would highly recommend.

The flat is actually quite a bit bigger than the pictures suggested. It was clean and well stocked, while still giving us enough space for our own stuff. There were plenty of things to keep us occupied in the rain and we had a lovely holiday.
