This studio is on the main road in the centre of Woolacombe and so is very convenient for going to the beach (5 minute walk) or nearby restaurants/bars/shops. The disadvantage of this is that there is a LOT of traffic and people noise (it's ground floor on the corner of the main road) and the parking for it is several 100m up the hill which isn't that convenient for unloading/loading gear. The studio has a good bed and everything in the kitchen works well. The facilities for storing and drying wetsuits is limited - the lockers round the back were inaccessible due to pub garbage and delivery bins and need renovating. The shower is open but unfortunately the floor doesn't slope towards the drainage hole so swiping is required.

Amazing!!
Fabulous property, Mitt was fantastic throughout the booking process and afterwards. What has been stressful and difficult times for all, he made everything better by being incredibly helpful and understanding. We would definitely recommend and would happily stay here again. 😃 A perfect base to explore Woolacombe and the surrounding areas.

Perfect couple get away
The property was immaculate and fully equipped for our needs. Attention to detail including hair dryer, cafeteria, iron, fully equipped kitchen. The location is brilliant as you can pop in and out and access everything in Woolacombe. Mitt was great and communicated everything we needed. Highly recommend.

Smiths break
ideal property if your a couple looking for a chilled week break. Close to beach and pubs, Park the car and did not use for the whole week as weather great would recommend for couples as value for money.

Convenient contemporary bolthole in central Woolacombe
Property is clean, contemporary and everything is in excellent condition and full working order. Very convenient for Woolacombe as it is right in the centre only a few minutes walk from the beach and right next to the Tides Inn and Bar Electric. Only downside is that there was no parking available because the village hall was being refurbished. I also got a £60 parking fine for turning around in the car park off Rawnsley Lane!! Which I’m going to contest... beware though, the road next to the apartment is narrow so turning around in the car park must happen all the time! Beach is amazing!

very cosy little pad and right in amounst it all, beech 2 mins
This little studio is just perfect, safe, clean, warm and right on the doorstep of the beech and all amenities, the two of us shacked up here for three nights in March, we had a very pleasant stay here although a bit out of season but still plenty of things to do. Totally recommend this studio to couples, and enough room for a child as well, will be booking this again, without a doubt, 5 * Phil & Debbie, Ascot.

Fantastic
We loved our stay here! The apartment was perfect for the two of us and is kept in excellent condition. Location less than 5 minutes walk to the beach and a minutes walk to the shops. No issues with noise whatsoever. Surfboard storage very useful and the parking arrangements worked fine. Already planning our return next year. Thanks so much!

Great base for exploring.
This is a lovely apartment, ample room for 2 or 3 people. Bed was so comfy, kitchen had everything you need, very modern and the underfloor heating was welcome. Definitely would stay again if we're ever down that way again.

Ideal location
We've been visiting woolacombe for years and usually stay up the hill in morthoe, but seeing this property was available for the long weekend we required we booked it - and what a joy. Very clean, everything you need for self catering, and more than big enough for three. Only downside was the wet room bathroom - looks beautiful, but so impractical with water flooding the bathroom after each shower - an enclosed shower would be far more suitable. Other than that, can't fault the studio. It was even near enough to the beach to call back and use the loo when the queue for the ladies got too long! Would certainly stay again and recommend.

It was clean and tidy, and the bed was comfortable. There was a bottle of wine as a welcome.
Overall, we were disappointed with the property for two main reasons: Firstly, the windows were frosted , so we couldn't see out, which we found oppressive. Secondly, it was on the ground floor with an alleyway right next to it, and late night revellers were very noisy, very close to where we were sleeping. I would say it is an apartment which is suitable for the young, who maybe wouldn't be bothered by the above problems.

lovely flat really near the beach
Westbeach one was the perfect space for the 2 of us and was really near the beach and main streets in Woolacombe. The bed was very comfy and the bathroom was great, especially after swimming in the cold sea! Easy to find with the directions they provided and we had a housekeeper on hand in case we needed anything.
