The property location is spectacular. Incredible views over the bay and less than 5 mins walk to the beach. We had 6 adults and an infant and the property provided lots of space for relaxing with games, books and toys to keep everyone happy. We chose to eat in most nights to enjoy the location and found the kitchen to be well equipped. We also made good use of the wet suits which are available to guests, all managing to find one which fitted. Woolacombe is an ideal location for a family beach holiday and surfing. We had changeable English weather but this did not stop us getting on the beach everyday, again making use of the windbreak available at the house. When it rained we made use of the sauna which must compete as the sauna with the best view - can’t be many any better than this one. We were a single family which does make this property quite expensive but if two families or more are sharing costs it becomes good value given the facilities and location
