Butterfly Annexe Reviews

David

The Butterfly Annexe is in a beautiful location, convenient for all the local towns and villages. The property is very well presented and has everything you could ask for. A luxury holiday home

Barbara

Lovely location and very well equipped with high end products. Stairs are extremely steep and deep so would be an accessibility issue for some people. Is on busy road but once inside it's quiet. WiFi drops out frequently so may not be reliable for some.

Sarah

Recommend this cottage to stay . Woolacoombe ( 5 mile plus beach ) and Ilfracombe beach short drive , dog friendly . Tesco short drive for all your shopping . Owners very helpful

Anne

Lovely cottage amidst beautiful countryside, handy for Woolacombe and Ilfracombe. A good sized secure garden for the dogs. Steep stairs, so maybe not suitable for people with mobility issues.

Maurice

Lovely property, good location with easy access to local attractions & beaches. The hot tub is a real hit and was used every day.

Just returned from a lovely week at the annex with our two springers & son. We found the cottage to be perfect for our needs. Private enclosed garden with hot tub. Well equipped . Even down to hand soap. Dish clothes and tea towels. The washing machine is a bonus. The local Tesco is only 3 mins drive and is large & well stocked. The beaches are onl y a few min drive away and if you are into sports book the quad bikes via the cottage and receive 25% off. My men when twice!! Yes we will return

Fantastic! From walking into a fabulous welcome tray of goodies which was much appreciated the property was clean, cosy and like home from home. Great location just a short drive from ilfracombe plus tesco down the road for those essentials we throughly enjoyed our stay. The owners of the property were on hand quickly if we needed to check anything and nothing was too much trouble. We are hoping to return next summer and definitely recommend this property for a relaxed stress free holiday.

Gary

We stayed for a week at the end of July 2023 at the Butterfly Annexe, what an amazing place to stay, although the weather was not great a couple of days, the hot tub allowed us to still enjoy ourselves. The welcome gifts were amazing, and very thoughtful of the owners. The location is very close to both Ilfracombe and Woolacombe, so there is lots t o do within the vicinity. Our dog loved the garden, and going to the beach, so the outdoor hose was ideal for cleaning him down after his days out.
