Located within a charming Victorian building, this stylish and contemporary Penthouse apartment promises fabulous sea views whatever the weather.

Occupying a prominent, clifftop position on the North Devon coast, this gorgeous two-storey apartment offers guests breathtaking sea views. Situated in a delightful Victorian building in the harbour town of Ilfracombe, this contemporary property is ideal for friends and families. Whether you’re looking forward to days on the beach, walks along the South West Coast Path or adventures in Exmoor National Park, this penthouse is ideally located. You also have Ilfracombe’s range of shops, eateries and attractions within a few hundred metres of your front door.

Accessed via a shared internal staircase, the views from this top-floor penthouse are worth the effort. Perched on the cliffs, it feels like there’s nothing between you and the vast ocean. In the lounge/diner, the minimalist, modern décor lets the sea views speak for themselves. The well-equipped kitchen is spacious with additional dining space, whilst a bay window frames a view of the town. Upstairs, there are three beautifully simplistic, yet stylish, bedrooms (one king-size and two twins). Two have sea views and there are Smart TVs in the master bedroom and one of the twin rooms. A bathroom completes the accommodation with a bath and separate shower. There is no outside area.

Ilfracombe has a lot to offer guests: boat trips from the harbour; the Victorian Tunnels beaches; and a variety of shops and eateries to suit all tastes and budgets. It is perfectly situated to visit some of North Devon’s finest beaches such as Woolacombe, Putsborough and Saunton (all within 11 miles). For family attractions, enjoy a day out at Combe Martin Wildlife and Dinosaur Park (7 miles) or quirky Watermouth Castle (3 miles). If you love the outdoors, head east to Exmoor National Park to discover its natural beauty and history.

The location is great, close to both the town centre and the coastal walks. The views are stunning and the interior is tasteful with all you need for home entertainment, also offering classic games. Wonderful to relax after long walks. I would not recommend it if you fancy cooking as it lacks some essentials, but it is ok for everyday meals.

A beautiful and well equipped penthouse apartment, located on the sea wall with spectacular views over the shore and town. Short walk to the harbour, local amenities, pubs and restaurants.

Superb location and the apartment was lovely. Views from all rooms were amazing. The stairway up is not particularly nice, carpets old and there is 40 steps to carry luggage up but as soon as you are in the apartment it's worth it. No outside space but you are literally mins away from the harbour and close to all ilfracombe has to offer. Good facilRead moreities in the kitchen and there was a bottle of wine, tea and coffee on arrival which was a nice touch. No parking but car park close. Would return. Hide

Great place once you have climbed the 42 stairs. No lift. Fab views. Apartment has everything. The beds were really comfy. Love the Emma mattresses. Nice to have a toiletry starter pack and tea , coffee , wine and biccies. Unfortunately our milk was off even though it was well in date. Downstairs bin was full so we couldn't get our rubbish in. No iRead morenstructions for recycling. Parking was ok at Ropery Rd. 47.50 for a week. Might struggle for a space in Summer. Overall , great place to stay. Hide

I booked this cliff top apartment for a week for three generations of our family. It was perfect in every way. Very roomy. Spotlessly clean. Extremely well kitted out. Fabulous views. Great location. We are considering booking it again.

An excellent , luxury apartment in the heart of Ilfracombe. Spacious and modern it has wonderful views over the sea from the lounge / dining room and bedrooms and overlooks the town from the large , well equipped kitchen / diner and master bedroom.

There are a lot of stairs ,to enter the apartment, but if you're mobile that's fine. Hide

Amazing views and noise of the waves at night is very relaxing, not ideal for people who struggle with walking as alot of stairs to climb. If the all is repaired and put back to how listed in the advert then definitely recommend.
