Visited 31st October for a 4 night break. Whilst the interior of the property offers an acceptable level of comfort, externally both the property together with surrounding properties could do with a makeover. The parking is not good if you have a decent sized car, the entrance is very narrow, however parking outside on the road was not a problem. At £730.00 for the 4 nights is not valid for money. We usually stay in Woolacombe where the properties we have stayed are in better locations with equivalent levels of comfort, at more reasonable price. In some instances up to £200 less for the same 4 nights. We decided to give Croyde a try as , a Though we have visited many times in the 30 odd years of visiting the area we had never stayed in the village. The Thatch pub has always had a good reputation, we ate here for lunch and evening meals twice and we were not disappointed. The Kings Arms in Georgian is also within easy reach, a pub we eat at every year during our stays in Woolacombe. There is a very good restaurant in Croyde, Th New Coast, fairly expensive but excellent food. All in all the village had all we needed, however we will not be be stopping at Pipedream again.
Mr Howe
Very nice and comfortable property. This was our second visit to Pipedream and we would highly recommend it.
Mr Cartmel
Location is great, spacious light & airy accommodation. Located in a cul-de-sac is perfect only a short walk from the beach and coastal walks, local shops, pubs and amenities would tempt us back to the area. Parking is fine, outside shower very for a post swim rinse. Hose pipe a great addition when shampooing a sea drenched pooch. We were extremely lucky with the weather, remember to book the sun!
