Westlands Reviews

Graeme

Nice location on the Tarka trail and a short walk from Braunton. This cottage provided a perfect base for 8 of us (6 adults and 2 kids) to explore local beaches and enjoy some late season surfing!

Antony

Fantastic house and stocked with everything you could need.

Alex

A superb property with generous sleeping accommodation. Ideal for us with three couples and children aged 9,5,2. Safe, enclosed, well-equipped. Huge TV, with others upstairs. Plenty of space for dining. Large yard for kids to run/play. Adjacent to cycle path which we used a lot to get to cafe, restaurant, tesco, or just to walk. Great place for dogRead mores - enclosed space, but easy walk from house for routine exercise. Main beach attractions ban dogs, but many other places to go with them. Super! Hide

Pauline

A lovely house for a family weekend away. Very well equipped. Perfectly located for all the attractions in the area. Wed definitely stay at Westlands again.

Sarah

Fabulous large well equipped property extremely clean and spacious inside and out. Situated on quite private lane with Tarka trail right outside. Military base very close and loud bangs were heard, if you have a nervous dog something to be aware of. We loved the location as just outside Braunton, and close to burrows and Saunton Sands.

Dennis

We usually come down to Braunton every year to use the Tarka trail. We chose this property because it was right on the Tarka trail, so perfect for us. So far this has been the best accomodation that we have stayed in, so spacious, very well equipped, ( especially in the kitchen), and the house was perfect for relaxing in as the weather wasn't too gRead moreood this year for our stay. We didn't get round to using the hot tub because of the weather, maybe another year! Thank you. Dennis and Tricia Harper. Hide

Luke

Six of us had an amazing couple of nights at Westlands for my girlfriend's birthday, there was great communications throughout from the host. Its an amazing house, really big and has really comfy beds and lovely hot tub, we werent aware of the military site next door but it honestly didnt affect us. Access to the Tarka trail is just around the cornRead moreer and the beaches are just a short hop in the car away. Definitely recommend this place to others! Hide

Holly

Absolutely loved this house. Perfect place for the family to get together. Kitchen is full with equipment/utensils. Right on the Tarka Trail and very close to beaches, pubs & shops. Good value for money would definitely recommend. Only thing to note is dogs aren't allowed upstairs.

Neil

We had a fab Christmas week at this property, there was everything you could possibly need, the co hosts were brilliant and the owners lovely, a beautiful house and a great location for local pub, supermarket and beaches and town of Barnstaple.

Jason

This was an amazing house to stay in. It was private yet perfectly situated for a variety of activities, walks and tourist attractions. The furnishings were very modern and luxurious and the owners had thought of everything to make our stay comfortable. We found the outdoor shower really useful in particular and the upstairs landing area with the t elescope was the most relaxing area, even in the rain.

Suchvinder

This stay was perfect for families especially with dogs. It literally had everything we needed!!! Think it was great value for what we paid, the location, size and the amenities it offered. Definitely would recommend and would stay again if we came as a group with dogs. So secure for our German shepherd and friends lab to run around and enjoy thems elves. Lovely welcome package too. Thank you so much

Great spacious modern holiday house, well equipped for young families. We enjoyed our stay and the co host was very helpful.

We had a wonderful holiday and the weather couldnt have been better. We all had a great time. The hot tub and barbecue were a great success.. The dogs loved the sand dunes and paddling in the water. We found some great seafood restaurants in the nearby towns and a great butchers and bakery in Braunton.

Stephanie

We really enjoyed our stay at Westlands. The property is very spacious, there was ample room for five adults plus two dogs. The kitchen is very well equipped. The outside area is fully secure for the dogs and the addition of the outside shower was great for washing them after the beach. The outside seating area and hot tub catch the afternoon sun a nd were a really peaceful space to chill after a busy day. We hope to stay again soon.

David

Spacious accommodation, big TV in lounge, well equipped kitchen, lovely pub 8 minutes walk away, take coat hangers for wardrobes as there only a few, football goal not available even though on photos of property. All in all a lovely property. We found a few niggles some were solved by Helen.

Neil

We stayed as Westlands last year and were happy to have gone back this year. There is loads of space for the 8 of us and the dog. Secure gates means the dogs and kids can roam around outside freely and safely which is a great to have. Beaches are not far away and there is the Tarka trail for walks which is nice & relaxing. Generally a good place to stay, huge TV in the living room and good TVs in the other rooms. Bathrooms good size with everything youd need. Out door furniture, BBQ & Hottub.

A lovely house with everything you can wish for, clean, modern, spacious and a welcome place to return to after a long day on the beach or sight seeing. We had seven people staying and there was plenty of room, it felt like having your own little palace near the sea. I would definitely recommend Westlands House as a perfect place to stay for your h olday. The location is also fantastic so close to all the beaches and places to eat. It even has a nice pub within walking distance (5 Minutes away)
