A well presented and clean large house that we enjoyed staying in. Plenty of space to eat and relax in. A good location to walk down the hill to the harbour.

We enjoyed our stay in this well equipped house, which accommodated 7 people well. We thought the kitchen was tiny for such a large house and the parking situation was inadequate.

The Croft is a beautiful, well equipped holiday home just a ten minute walk from Ilfracombe Harbour. The house had everything we needed and there was more than enough space for our family (7 adults and our dog). The kitchen is quite small compared to the other rooms but it was very well equipped. Parking was a bit of a challenge as it's all on streRead moreet in the area and there are a lot of vehicles around. But we always manged to squeeze in somewhere. The very generous welcome gifts were much appreciated - tea, coffee, sugar, wine, fresh flowers, cake and biscuits! We had a fantastic family holiday in The Croft and would recommend it without hesitation. Hide
