Villa vacation rentals in North Devon District

Had a lovely stay at Tracy’s place. Tracy was a wonderful host and we felt welcomed as soon as we arrived. The accommodation is spacious, quiet and clean. There is a pub and local parade of shops less than a 10 mins walk away and Torquay town centre is 20 mins down the road (the walk back is all uphill though). I would highly recommend this accommodation.

Spacious, open plan house with all you need for a very comfortable stay. The bedrooms are big, with comfortable beds and good quality bedding and towels and The White Company toiletries in the bathrooms. We would be very happy to stay again as the location is perfect for exploring this part of Cornwall.

Great place to stay in the off season. Very quiet, clean and perfect for what we wanted. Small issue at check in but was resolved fairly quickly.

We stayed with our two kids (7 and 4 years) and had a great week. The apartment was a good size with a really nice view of the tree’s from the main bedroom, there's a great view of the sea from the apartment and balcony area as well. The balcony is big and really makes the most of the lovely surroundings. The showers good and the kitchens well stocked with utensils, crockery etc. The beach is great and is only an easy short stroll away, the waves can be heard from the apartment. The beach bar / cafe was open 09:00-22:00 every day and was decent aswell. Nice easy communication with the host who was responsive with any messages. Cheers for a nice stay!

Very friendly and great communication. Spacious bedrooms that are clean and tidy and are well glazed to minimise traffic noise from the main road. The property is situated near loads of amenities in Plymouth and was easy and quick to get to. The views from the rooms were lovely, tranquil and ever changing with the tide and weather. Just be mindful that to get those views there are loads of steps! There are binoculars in the main bedroom to spot wildlife when the tide is out. There aren’t any bins in the bedrooms or bathroom so had to use my dogs unused poo bags so be prepared. There is a lay-by for locals parking (3 cars) which is straight off the busy main road. I couldn’t park at the back of the property as my SUV was too big to get the right angle to park (as it’s a fairly busy narrow lane) so if you have a small-ish car you’ll be fine. Overall a lovely bungalow to base yourself in Plymouth but just be prepared for the steps and parking.

The location was ideal for us, nice and quiet away from noisy roads. The place was really clean and tidy and had everything we needed for our long weekend. Comfy beds, heating works well, hot water and plenty of cooking utensils in the kitchen for when we cooked. I would recommend staying here. Loads to do within a 30 minute drive. 25 minutes to Bude.

Comfortable spacious house in a quiet area, and with woodland walk on site

Absolutely brilliant. A beautiful location and lovely place. We arrived a bit later on our check in date and they were so lovely and helpful in giving instructions and being in touch with us. Really fantastic place, will definitely stay again! One thing to note is to bring your own washing up bits - we had forgotten to!

Fabulous house which is deceptively large and can host a large family/friend group. Very lovely cottage garden too! In a delightful village on the harbour and super restaurants and pubs. Highly recommend!

Rose Cottage is a lovely, old fashioned, quirky cottage - with lots of interesting objet d’art to discover throughout your time there. I loved how it is tucked away from the street, making it a really private space. Danielle was really informative about the surrounding areas and was on hand for queries. The living space downstairs is really relaxing (two of us learnt how to play chess in the lounge!) The outdoor space is really valuable as, I should imagine, in Appledore having a big garden is a real treat. The location is amazing - a minute’s stroll down to the quay - with the wonderful local shop, John’s, a stone’s throw away. We had fantastic weather, having lots of hot beach days in Croyde and Saunton Sands, but also loved catching the 5 minute ferry across to Instow village and beach. The attics bedrooms were a little warm (it was a very hot week), but Danielle kindly provided us with a fan which certainly helped on the top floor. Appledore is a magical place with beautiful cottages, great restaurants and Sylvester’s fish and chips are scrumptious - the first time I think I have ever managed to eat a whole battered cod! Thanks Danielle for a truly wonderful week’s holiday with the family.

Marine Villa is an absolute gem! From the exquisite decor and attention to detail to the enchanting garden, it's truly one of the most beautiful Airbnbs we've had the pleasure of staying in. The thoughtful addition of a box of train tracks for the kids to play with, the cozy fire that kept us warm at night, and the amazingly comfortable beds made our stay truly delightful. Antonia was an exceptional host, going above and beyond to ensure our visit was nothing short of perfection. We hope we have the pleasure of visiting again! I cannot recommend this Airbnb enough! Thank you again Antonia and David for your hospitality!

Great accommodation for large family. Walkable distance to Ilfracombe centre. Shops, walks, beach, activities in town centre. Ilfracombe is a picturesque place, we went to Combe Martin dinosaur and wildlife park and Watermouth Castle while visiting and had a great time. Paula was very friendly and accommodating and the place quirky, fun and clean.

Treventon is a beautiful house that provides a homely atmosphere, but with some intriguing art work and design features. The kids loved the garden and the games room. Although there ws 11 of us, we always felt there was space and nver felt like we were on top of each other. Viva was very helpful and knowledgeable on the local amenities and wider area. We had a lovely week, thank you!

Great place that was perfect for the Anthropy conference at the nearby Eden project. All exactly as described. Immaculate.

I have to come clean - I am an enthusiast of Penarth, the architecture of the town, the community feel, and everything about the place. Sarah's place, being among the oldest houses in the town, was a must for all the things I was looking for. Sarah herself is friendly and has clearly put a lot of herself into the house. My journey time to Penarth could have been subject to delays, being more than 500 miles... but we had good communication and met up without difficulty at the house. All in all, the house was cosy and well appointed. It also was a great base for strolling into Penarth Town centre and even, across the barrage, to Butetown and even Cardiff. I would thoroughly recommend Sara's house for your stay.

Fantastic lodge, beautiful surroundings. Lodge was immaculate, well appointed, excellent well equipped kitchen, perfect bathroom to bedroom ratio for all getting ready to go out at the and time. Ideal accommodation for 3 couples, or in our case grown up children with partners. Good size didn't feel claustrophobic with 7 adults staying. The ensuite with a bath could have done with an overhead shower rather than a hand held hose, minor issues. Surrounding area is ideal to get the Cornwall experience. Pentewan mins away with beach, pubs with beer gardens, cafe cream tea & small village experience. St Austell, big stores supermarkets (online shop and delivery). Check in at 4 pm, Asda delivery 4.30 pm). Mevagissey is a stunning harbour village : pubs, cafes, independent retailers, Mary's Bakery - best Pastys. Eden Project is 20 mins away - worth taking an annual membership costs extra but you can then do different areas in couple of hrs. And a place to escape to Med dome if weather bad.

We needed the property for 2 weeks, Robert suggested I go round to check it would work before I needed to confirm the booking which was honest. Nice amount of space for a family of four, close to the children’s’ schools and Clifton village a 15 minute walk away. Robert was responsive and helpful and we had a lovely stay.

Doubt we could have found anywhere better to accommodate our family holiday. From toddler to teenager to grandparent the house worked on every level! Plenty of space and the pool was the icing on the cake - loved by all! Easy walk to the beach across the fields and to Tintagel on the costal path - stunning views. Yes a little steep on way back as has been mentioned in previous reviews, but my daughter managed at 8 months pregnant so really not a problem. Great location to visit other attractions in Cornwall. Ate at both pubs close by, great food and friendly staff. Would definitely recommend the house and location, especially for mixed age groups.
