Perfect Holiday House
Our party of four adults, two seniors and three children were looking forward to our holiday, and we were not disappointed! The house was spacious, clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay with plenty of parking close to the house. Ilfracombe is a lovely area, with Tunnels Beach being a must to visit for a small fee! Plenty of great places to eat, Hip and Pistol do great food at a very reasonable price. Woolacombe is a lovely sandy beach, great for beach games, surfing or just relaxing!. Also, The Big Sheep is worth a visit if you have youngsters or are young at heart! We would love to return again one day.

About the host

Hosted by Caroline Oliver

Host profile image
I'm a married mother with two grown sons, I currently live in London. I'm looking forward to enjoying my retirement in North Devon in a few years time.

Why they chose this property

My family and I have taken holidays in Devon and Cornwall for many years.
We love the great beaches, scenery, surfing and friendly people, so North Devon was the perfect choice for our dream seaside home.

The towns amenities and facilities are all within a short walking distance (5 -15 minutes) of Primrose House. This includes several supermarkets, theatre, cinema, indoor swimming pool, a range of pubs and award winning restaurants including Ilfracombe's first Michelin star restaurant, Thomas Carr at 1873 located in Fore Street.

There are a wide selection of tea shops and enjoying freshly cooked fish and chips whilst watching the boats at the harbour is a must.

There are numerous fantastic beaches within a 10 minute drive of Primrose House, including the award winning Woolacombe Beach

If you are planning to stay in Ilfracombe, I recommend booking restaurants before your stay, as restaurants do get busy especially during the busier times of the year.

What makes this property unique

Primrose House has lots of original features, including marble fireplaces and tiled floors.

Lovely views over National Trust Torrs.

Perfect location to park your car and just a short walk into town.

Repeat visitors will also benefit from a discounted rate during the off peak season, please contact me for more details.
