Wave Watcher

Families and larger groups will find plenty of space across three floors at Wave Watcher, a recently refurbished house in Ilfracombe within walking distance of the harbour. Three bedrooms sleep six: a double and two singles, plus a kingsize with an en-suite shower. The property has three bathrooms in total, so mornings are less of a squeeze. Sea views improve as you climb higher through the house.

The kitchen is properly equipped for self-catering, with an induction hob, electric oven, dishwasher, microwave and all the usual appliances. Two living areas give you choice—one on the ground floor with a smart TV, another on the first floor. The essentials are covered: heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and wifi. An enclosed back garden with seating and a barbecue offers outdoor space; there's parking for one car on site. Note that smoking is not permitted anywhere in the property, including outside.

Ilfracombe's harbour, beaches and coastal walks are on your doorstep. The town has shops, restaurants and attractions within easy reach. One well-behaved pet can stay with you.
