Had a lovely week in Mortehoe at Rockham Bay View was a well kept property with all you would need as if you were at home a short walk to post office cafe and 2 pubs and just a bus ride away to Woolacombe with all its facilities

Really clean and homely and everything we needed for a great week away. As described, easy to find and parking directly opposite the property. Loved the patio out the front of the house (despite the inclement weather!) Close to the centre of the village, so facilities in walking distance. Don't be put off by the stairs up to the house; two of the party are elderly but made it up and down with no issues. We will be back!

Itâs so well placed for amazing walks, trips to the pubs and takeaways. The convenience of the campsite shop up the road is also good. We were all really comfortable in the house from day one and by the middle of our break weâd booked again for next summer. The sunset view from the front patio was perfect as we ate our meals sat at the comfortable furniture. One thing we loved was the privacy of the property. We could sit as a family as the world went by, both inside and outside without people looking in on us.
