Guests say

Lynmouth View is a well-regarded cottage in Devon, praised for its perfect location, comfortable beds, and well-equipped kitchen. Guests appreciate the thoughtful touches like wine and blankets, and the pet-friendly environment. The terrace offers a lovely outdoor space, even in the rain. Some concerns were raised about a damp issue in one room and high kitchen cupboards for shorter guests.

The property is described as very clean and well-maintained, with only one mention of mustiness due to a damp problem in the twin bedroom, which seems to be an isolated issue.

The location is highly praised for being a stone's throw away from Lynmouth and Lynton, with sea views and proximity to local amenities, making it an ideal spot for guests.

The property is recognised for its comfortable beds and spacious bedrooms. However, the damp issue in the twin bedroom affected the comfort level for one guest.

Facilities are generally well-received, with a well-appointed kitchen and terrace. The lack of a washing machine and the need for a kickstep for shorter guests are noted as areas for improvement.

Guests mention thoughtful touches like a welcome gift of wine and dog treats, and blankets for cooler evenings. While these are appreciated, it's important to note that such gifts are not guaranteed.

About this property

Lynmouth View is a single-storey dwelling perched in the seaside village of Lynmouth, Devon. Boasting stunning sea views across Lynmouth, this attractive abode is perfect for families, couples and friends, along with canine companion, seeking an escape to this coastal region. As you marvel at the beauty of the British coastline, step into your home-from-home and embrace its warm and welcoming interior. The kitchen/diner is a great space to cook and dine with an electric oven and induction hob, microwave, fridge, freezer and dishwasher. Share stories around the dinner table before retreating to the sitting room complete with large L-shaped sofa, electric fire and a 54" Smart TV with a selection of DVDs. The sleeping arrangements include three bedrooms, one king-size with TV and en-suite shower, one twin and a single with pull-out trundle bed. Completing the interior is the family bathroom with choice of bath or shower over. Venture outside and spend a moment on the decking, with a furniture set encouraging alfresco dining, complimented with those gorgeous sea views. Explore the local village of Lynmouth, stopping at the local teashops, restaurants and pubs to sample some of the best local delicacies. Pack up your seaside essentials and head to Blacklands Beach for an exploration with your pooch, whilst also nearby is the South West Coast Path and the Tarka Trail, both running through the town and are excellent for keen walkers and cyclists. The area offers a variety of activities for all ages: trek up the Lynton and Lynmouth Cliff Railway, England’s steepest and only funicular railway, built in 1890 to transport people and goods up and down from the harbour, and take part in the many water-sports activities in the harbour, including kayaking and paddleboarding. Experience the beauty of Lynmouth and the stunning Devon coastline from the comfort of Lynmouth View.

Set directly on the coast at the foot of the Exmoor hills, this charming village draws visitors from near and far. Quaint Lynmouth sits between the river, shore and hills and offers small restaurants, tea rooms and inns. There are plenty of things to see and do, including a unique water-powered cliff railway with outstanding views, which links Lynmouth with neighbouring Lynton, the pretty harbour town where the fisherman’s cottages creep down towards the quay, and the distinctive Rhenish Tower sits proudly on the harbour wall. The National Trust own nearby Arlington Court and Watersmeet, a stunning riverside walk, and within the National Park boundary, the hills of Exmoor drop down to the sea where they shadow the Exmoor Heritage Coast. Romantic Porlock, home of Lorna Doone, is just 16 miles to the east, the coastal resorts of Minehead and Ilfracombe are both within 20 miles, with the hills of Exmoor dotted all around, and there are good shopping opportunities in Barnstaple, 20 miles away.

    We would love to stay there again.

  • Katrina

    Very clean and comfortable and the owners have gone above and beyond with maps, local information, books, magazines, dvds and a lovely welcome gift of wine and dog treats - all much appreciated. Fiona and Kevin, the owners, are very helpful and quick to reply if you need them. The path down to the property is very steep though which may be an issue for anyone with mobility issues. We would definitely go back again!

    Everything was thought off in a well equipped kitchen. Only slight issue was trying to find the property as we walked right by the sign lol
