Lantern View Reviews

Debbie
Lovely place to stay, very comfy and loved the views. Location to the harbour was closer than we thought and enjoyed walking there daily. Really liked Woolacombe bay for walking our dog and a bit of a splash in the sea. Really enjoyed Ilfracombe and will be back for sure. Thank you
Marc
A modern large comfortable home that sleeps 6 comfortably. The kitchen had all we needed to whip up a family Sunday roast and there was a helpful level of cleaning products provided including dishwasher tabs which is unusual. In warmer times we would have made more of the hot tub and outdoor space. Location is good for a walk down to the harbour.

We had a great time at the Lanterns, a really nice house, in fact really plush and well represented. The owner provided everything in readiness for our arrival, and nothing was too much trouble to ensure you enjoyed your stay at this property. I can honestly say 10/10.

Great upside down house with fabulous balcony views. Very well equipped and modern within a short walking distance of the harbour but is a bit steep coming back up so one to bear in mind if youre not good with hills.

Beautiful cottage, in a stunning location, short walk to the harbour. There was a lovely thatched cottage pub in front of us, providing lovely food. We werent affected by any noise from the pub as the cottage was well sound proofed.
Maxine
Lovely property in a great location. Loved sitting on the balcony looking at the sea. Easy to walk to some lovely coves and into town. The local crab is delicious. Recommend eating at Seventy One on Fore Street and Giovanni and Luca. The bed in the main en-suite is very soft and uncomfortable. There was no maintenance of the hot tub during the weekRead more and 3 of us returned with a rash which we suspect was caused by bacteria in the hot tub. Despite this, we all had a lovely family holiday. Hide

Lovely home, fabulous view! Good location near the harbour. Did some great hikes along the coastal path which is a short drive or walk from the doorstep. Really enjoyed our stay and the hot tub was great to relax at the end of the day.
David
A warm, comfortable and stylish property with fantastic views and quality equipment. Only a short walk to town and lots of pretty dog walks and perfect for exploring. The waterfall shower and instant hot water was really good. Being an upside down house it slightly confused our dog, who still hadn't twigged what was where by the end of our very enjRead moreoyable week. She also loved the treats and ball.

George
A lovely weekend escape, everything was as we expected, a top location just a few minutes walk into town and less than a stones throw from the pub. The would recommend
Sonya
Absolutely perfect. Couldn't ask for anything more. Another wonderful weekend break at Lantern View
Sairah
Amazing accommodation, will be returning, clean, tidy, well equipped. So much room for 6 people. The only thing if you have 6 staying the hot tub needs to be larger as only big enough for 4.
Helen
Lantern view was the perfect base to explore the beautiful north Devon coast, and when the weather was a little too stormy what a beautiful place to light a fire and sit and watch the world go by. The house was beautifully decorated and perfectly equipped with everything we needed. The harbour was just a 10 minute walk. For amazing fish and chips tRead morery Maddys Chippy. Hide

Jonathan
What a beautiful place to stay. Loved it. Would recommend anyone to stop here. 5 star ­
Samuel
We all absolutely loved our stay, beautiful location and a beautiful home.
Helen
Great location - 5 min walk from the harbour. Steep incline on the walk back from the harbour which may prove difficult for some with mobility issues. For us it was a good way to work off the many ice creams we consumed. Lovely walks just across the road, pitch and putt and a cafe. House was very clean - smelt lovely. Bedrooms are big. We would def initely book this property again if holidaying in the area.
Sian
Lovely stay at Lantern view, the house has everything you need for your stay! We even managed to cook a roast dinner, the kitchen is that well equipped. We made the most of walks into Ilfracombe harbour and enjoyed a couple of meals at The lime Kiln just down the road, beautiful views. We visited Woolacombe beach a couple of times, great beach for all the family. The house was clean, tidy and the views from the top balcony are ones we wont forget! Just what we needed.
Ann
Great house, hot tub was enjoyed by our teenagers. Clean, well equipped and good location for exploring north Devon.
Susan
Fantastic property with amazing views.
Robert
Comfortable house with view of the sea in a good location for visiting Ilfracombe.
Vimbai
I recently stayed at a beach rental in Devon and it was a fantastic experience. The highlight was the stunning view from the top balcony of the coastline, which was breathtaking. The location was perfect for a bit of everything, from beach time to shopping, but we found ourselves not wanting to leave the house much as everything we needed was provi ded. The amenities were excellent, with comfortable furnishings and modern appliances.
Alex
Beautiful views and location.
Janette
Lovely townhouse about 10 minutes' walk from the town centre. Steep climb back to the property so not suitable for those with mobility problems. Lovely lounge with views out to sea. Spacious and well fitted kitchen diner. super-sized bedrooms. Nice patio area with hot tub for four people. Off street parking is handy as space is limited!
Karen
Beautifully presented in a great location, short walk to the harbour and a pub on your doorstep. Hot tub is an amazing extra. Owners have thought of everything, even a bucket and space available. Parking is for two cars but its right if larger vehicles
Corrin
The property was lovely! Very clean and tidy. Had everything we wanted and was even left a basket of treats/goodies for the dog which was a very nice extra! Would definitely recommend and stay here again.
Stephanie
Lovely house, really big rooms and lots of flexible space. Fabulous view from the balcony where the sun sets. Good location to the harbour and town. Hot tub and patio area great added extra. Drive little tight for two big cars but doable. Only one front door key provided, which we found to be awkward and we have fed this back accordingly.
Katie
Beautiful location, lovely property just needed a good clean!
Maggie
The house is very well positioned. and has lovely views, it was well equipped with everything you need, we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and were so lucky with the weather, which meant we enjoyed sitting outside in the evenings and on the balcony looking across at the sea. Would definitely like to return one day.
Iain
Our second stay here. It works very well for us.
Lee
The house was ideally located for walking and visiting other locations by car. It was spotlessly clean and had everything you needed for a lovely holiday.
