This stylish second floor apartment is nestled in the stunning coastline above Ilfracombe in Devon. There are unmatchable sea views, and you're conveniently situated just a walk away from Ilfracombe's town centre and beaches.

The space
Inside, everything has been finished to a high standard and colourful furnishings add to the warm, homely feel. The large open-plan living room leads onto a kitchen where you will find all the appliances you need to cook hearty meals. There is also a coffee machine and washing machine.

Mesmerising sea views can be best enjoyed from the large window seat that leads off from the kitchen, or from the comfortable sofa at sunset. Next door, the well-sized bedroom oozes tranquillity and boasts a large king-size bed (that can also be made up as two singles) alongside a chest of drawers and clothes rail. The family bathroom has been well-maintained and comes with both a shower and a bath for relaxing evening soaks.

Downstairs, there is a sunny, courtyard garden that is shared between the apartments. There are unobstructed sea views all around making it the perfect spot for an evening tipple or two! This wonderful apartment is ideal for those who want to enjoy the very best of Devon's coastline; there's paid parking close by and you can easily walk to beaches or the harbourside with its brilliant selection of pubs and restaurants.

Dogs are welcome with a fee of £20/dog (max 2). It is on the condition they are not allowed on the soft furnishings or in the bedrooms.

Neighborhood highlights

Situated on the North Devon coastline, Ilfracombe is a traditional seaside town that's grown more and more popular over recent years. The pretty fishing harbour is surrounded by rugged cliffs and provides beautiful coastal scenery for walkers and beach-goers. The town has swiftly become an up-and-coming foodie destination with a varied selection of restaurants and pubs. Head to Seventy One Bistro for modern British cuisine, The Terrace for tapas or Antidote for fresh, local seafood.

Ilfracombe is also renowned for artist Damien Hirst's famous 20m high sculpture, Verity, as well as its collection of local galleries which feature a mix of local and international artists. If you're visiting in May, you'll be able to take in the town's Art Trail - with its open studios, live music and locally produced food markets.

The unique Tunnels Beaches were hand carved in the 1820s and have been rated the ‘3rd best beach for rock pooling in the UK’ by BBC Wildlife Magazine. Kids will love exploring the tidal pool whilst adults can sit back and relax in the sun. Lee Bay is a 10-minute drive away, whilst the infamous Woolacombe Beach is 15-minutes. This huge sprawl of beach is brilliant if you're after golden sands and great surf. The far end of Woolacombe Beach, Putsborough Sands, is great for dogs and allows them all year around.

Devon is known for its Tarka Trail, a 180 mile cycling and walking route that traverses unspoiled countryside, dramatic sea cliffs and beautiful beaches. From Ilfracombe, you can pick up the route all the way down to Braunton and Saunton Sands, passing the beautiful Woolacombe and Georgeham village.
