We had a wonderful stay! A warm welcome and cosy house counteracted the dreary weather! Such a lovely house, spacious and well equipped. Amazing views across the sea, and a short walk to town (extremely good exercise on the way back!!!) Thank you David for excellent communication and the best welcome basket ever.

6 of our family members converged on Amberley House in Ilfracombe, North Devon, for 2 marvelous weeks. Ilfracombe (pronounced “Coome”) is a very old fishing village with charm, boats, beaches, steep little hills, stone houses and wide blue sea. There are many things to do both in Ilfracombe and in the surrounding region. But we also just really enjoyed being in this spacious and beautifully renovated house gazing at the sea and the coast of Wales across the Bristol Channel. Because there were 6 of us, we were worried that only 2 bathrooms were listed for the property, one being in the master suite. It turns out that the house is AMPLY supplied with bathrooms: in addition to the en suite and the large family bath, there is also a very useful powder room off the stair landing, plus a nice stall shower down off the laundry room. (Together they equal a third full bath). Additionally, 2 of the 4 large bedrooms have modern sinks in them. This is incredibly convenient. So the “facilities” were more than ample. The views from the living room, the large deck, the kitchen, and 2 of the upstairs bedrooms are mesmerizing. There’s a comfy spot at the front entry for reading in two big leather chairs. The dining room boasts a table seating at least 8. The living room invites you to relax on its sofas, or just admire that view. Perhaps the best room of the house is its amazing kitchen. Very large, it boasts a giant induction cooktop and double oven stove. Now we all want one!

We absolutely loved the house! Very good beds and bathrooms, every room is really spacious and very Pleasant. We all felt absolutely at home! The views from the balcony are stunning. We had a really happy week here. I can very much recommend this house ! Thanks for everything!

Beautiful well appointed property in an excellent location within walking distance of harbour Ideal place for extended family- we visited with our children and grandchildren plenty of room for all of us - comfortable beds and good showers- the welcoming basket of goodies was a lovely touch- thanks

Wonderful views. Very comfortable. Excellent kitchen and facilities. Spacious sitting/dining area. Bedrooms. Main bedroom-good wardrobe, insufficient drawers. 2nd bedroom. Chest of drawers but no hanging space. Generally inappropriate bedroom storage. This was shared because we were one family but would be difficult otherwise. Difficult recycling arrangements. Thought stripping beds for 9:00 wasn’t easy. Despite these quibbles we had a wonderful time and would recommend it as a wonderful place to stay. Good parking-we thought we would let you know the quibbles in case you wanted to make adjustments. Thank you very much for the wonderful hamper.

We really enjoyed our stay at David's house. The house was well equipped, clean and comfortable. The views from the back windows and terrace were amazing. Just sitting on the terrace and watching the sea was a treat. We had family from far and wide for a very special holiday and the property did not disappoint.

This house is much bigger than I expected. The feeling of space, combined with stunning views makes this an excellent place to stay.

We had a wonderful time in Ilfracombe and this property exceeded our expectations! David was wonderful to work with and provided great tips for things to do in the area. We will definitely be back!
