About this property

Hollies and Ilfracombe Harbour View

We overlook the harbour and has fabulous views of it and Damien Hurst's Verity. Watch the ships, fishing boats and occasionally dolphins! Beach, harbour, bars and restaurants only a five minute walk away too.. You’ll love my place because the apartment is tastefully furnished and has a really spacious light feel to it.We provide most things to help your stay be an enjoyable one. Relax on the balcony with a glass perhaps. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, and business travellers.

The apartment is private and has no shared space. It is accessed on the ground floor (which is up a few steps to the door) and the central stairway leads up to two other private apartments in the building.

The bedroom is at the rear, and although it doesn't face out to sea, it has a very sunny outlook as it's south facing. The bed is comfortable and there is a TV too. In the wardrobe, you'll find an iron and ironing board in case you need one.
The doorway from the bedroom leads to a private decked area, where you can enjoy the sunshine (hopefully) and eat outdoors if you wish.

The beautiful and spacious sitting room has aTV with Freeview and there is a DVD player and you can access Netflix and so on. The views from there are pretty special. There is a very comfortable sofa, a dining table which seats 4, a recliner with footstool and fabulous views over the harbour, with Damien Hirst's Verity and across to Wales. There is a monocular provided to watch the boats .

The beautifully decorated bathroom has a bath with shower over. Towels and bathmat provided and kept warm on the towel rail.

The kitchen is well equipped and well-appointed and should have everything you need - including a dishwasher, so that's another job made easier while you stay. If you're using the oven, please use the foil provided, as it saves me having to clean it every two days. I'd really appreciate it being left in the same condition you find it in.

The whole apartment is private for yourselves. Once you're in, please make yourselves comfortable and know that you won't be disturbed.

If you have any problems, or need any advice please phone or text me on (PHONE NUMBER HIDDEN). I'm usually in Ilfracombe too, and can come and sort out problems or give advice as to the best places to eat, or what's on in Ilfracombe. Get in touch before you visit if you want recommendations, or a baby sitter (DBS checked)

It's only a 5 minute walk down into the harbour, and from there you can find pubs, restaurants, galleries and so forth. The High Street is also very close by. There are beautiful walks, around Ilfracombe itself or along the coast - west towards Lee over the Torrs, then on to Woolacombe if you're feeling energetic, or along to Watermouth Cove and Combe Martin to the east.
There are wildlife tours on ribs which go from the harbour (and are just great fun - bouncing over the waves, but not getting wet in the process) and out to Lundy. Ilfracombe has a really good music scene too. Check out the Pier for great live music. On Sunday afternoons, the Sunny sundays live music and the Pier is really fun.

It's such a short walk down (but longer coming home) that taking a car into town isn't probably needed. There is parking at Lidl, if you're going shopping, but otherwise walking is the best way round, and a taxi back would cost very little. Mike's Taxi's or A2B are the two I'd recommend.

Parking is available, but please park with consideration to others and ensuring cars can get past to access the other properties nearby. Thank you

If you are having a social event at the property, the noise levels must be kept down after 10.30 as a courtesy to other apartments in the building. The flat must be returned to an acceptable condition after any event, otherwise additional cleaning charges will apply.

Fabulous!
The Hollies is fantastic! We stayed at many quaint, clean, cozy and historic places in our three week tour of England and Ireland..but for overall majesty the Hollies can't be beat. A beautiful Victorian building with 12' or higher ceilings and ornate moldings and attention to every detail. This rental will make you feel like royalty, is very clean and has many added touches to make you feel at home. A guitar is included for all you musicians, and a monocular for taking advantage of the beautiful views of the ocean and hills out the front windows. Thank you so much Lindsey (and your husband who we did not get to meet) for offering such a wonderful place for us and the general public to enjoy. You have done a great job with your renovations!
