Wildercombe Houses’s spacious, wooden-floored dining room has views of the Welsh coastline. Breakfast is served each morning and includes full English options, and lighter continental choices, with meals made from local ingredients.

This is one of the most wonderful rooms I have ever rented! The hosts, Ann Marie and Barry, greeted me warmly upon my arrival and were generally available but not intrusive. The room was simply stunning! It was like having my own little apartment set in a historical property but updated with all the modern conveniences. There was a small fridge and kitchen stocked with utensils and even a little dining table. I appreciate that they had milk waiting for me for my morning coffee. Full breakfast cooked to order was included. Bed was so comfy and ahhhh, that soaker tub!! Plenty of outlets and a very nice desk where I could set up my laptop. Separate sitting area/living room. The best part was the attached private patio that meant I didn't have to get dressed and slog outside for a cigarette. Ten out of ten.

    Lovely views across Illfracombe. The big bathtub in the bedroom was a nice bonus too. A lovely, spacious apartment set in Illfracombe in a quiet part of town. Great location for getting to other parts of Devon and close enough to town you can walk around. The property was well equipped with everything we needed for our trip. The bed was very comfortable one of the best I’ve slept in. Would recommend to family and friends and stay again if in the area.

    The room was very clean, it wasn't advertised as en ensuite although it was. The staff were friendly, there was lots of choice of breakfast and my order was taken upon check-in. There was plenty of milk and extra tea bags for my room. . It was perfectly located for me right by the SW coast path. It was peaceful and quiet at night. I would stay again if in the area. The fresh fruit salad at breakfast was simply the best I have ever had in a hotel/guest house!

    Beautiful House and great location. We were the first to stay in this property as a holiday let so everything was brand new and spotless. The garden was lovely and very private. Very quiet area. Ilfracombe within easy walking distance, Woolacombe just a short drive and a lovely park just up the road is worth a visit. Would definitely book again. Dog friendly.
